[SailingandSuch]

@superengineer51 Hello! I used 1/8th inch and 3/8th inch plywoods. I am not sure what thicknesses would be best for a boat of that size, check out bateau.com though, thats where I got my plans.

This is a really nice construction series of videos. Do you get the exterior luan plywood from Lowes also?

[SailingandSuch]

@wlindenlaub Thank you! Yes, I did get the luan from Lowes also.

@SailingandSuch Awesome, I appreciate the response. I've had an itch to build something similar. Just not exactly sure yet. I'm thinking about building a hovercraft utilizing this same kind of construction. Thanks again.

@wlindenlaub A hovecraft! Very ambitious!!! If you do, you need to put it on here and let us see that. Good luck though.....

[wlindenlaub]

@SailingandSuch You will be the first to see it. Hopefully, when the weather warms up, I'll be able to get started.

I just bought the plans for this boat. Your videos will really help me in figuring out how to build it. thanks

[SailingandSuch]

I used regular pine plywood that you can buy at Lowe's. For the thin stuff I used exterior luan plywood.

Have fun!

Hei I wanted to ask did you use some special playwood or regular pine pywood.

Good stuff by the way.
