A classic-style wooden runabout, 2 metres long, with a hard-chine hull of okoume plywood: frames, bottom and side panels, decks, seat and transom. This kit is only the cut plywood; the build plan with the manual is the basis, and you are the builder.
Self-build for your own use. You buy the epoxy, glass cloth, buoyancy foam and varnish yourself; the list is below.

Every box is a building phase. Lay the parts out per group; their code is engraved on them.

Keel and formers, walls and bulkheads, or spokes and hub: dry-fit and square first, then glue.

The large surfaces go on: skin, walls, deck or platform, clamped until the glue has set.

Round the edges, sand and lacquer. Then go through the safety paragraph.
