Built in buoyancy fore and aft that can be fitted with small hatches for storage of valuables etc while on the water. Can be built in either 4mm or 6mm plywood (though 6mm recommended) and requires between 30 and 40 hours to complete. This canoe is ideal for a solo paddle but will also take 2 adults and some gear for day trip or weekend camp etc or perhaps a day on the water for the kids. It goes together easily and quite quickly.
Once completed, it looks good and performs well on the water too. Designed to be paddled while kneeling but seats could be fitted and position details are given for them. The build is based on at least 3 sheets of 6mm Plywood (Good exterior grade or better), two 3.5m or 4m lengths of 20mm x 20mm square timber, 1 x 20mm x 40mm x 1m timber (all soft or hardwood), 3kg/ltr Epoxy Pack plus additive and Fibreglass Tape.

More plans, our Kits or Complete boats. Note: Being a canoe, these boats do not need to be certified under the European Recreational Craft Directive. However, they would be Category D, SHELTERED WATERS: Designed for use on sheltered coastal waters, small bays, small lakes, rivers and canals when conditions up to and including wind force 4 and significant wave heights up to and including 0.3m may be experienced, with occasional waves of 0.5m maximum height, for example from passing vessels. STANLEY SmallCraft is a business seller. We have been designing, building and repairing small boats for over 30 years and have been building our own, original designs for 20 years.
In the past 12 years, we have been selling some of the more popular designs as DIY plans, all over the world. The choice of selling them as PDF A4 plans is to keep the costs as low as possible allowing them to be sold at the lowest possible price. However, some of our DIY designs are also sold as traditional, large sheet (A2/A1), paper drawings with full build instructions. We have built each design ourselves, several times - some a great many times – using ordinary DIY tools so we can get a better idea of the problems our builders may come across. We are constantly looking for ways to upgrade and improve the plans to make it as easy as we can for you to build them.
We welcome your feedback and always like to see pictures of your finished boat. (We post some of them on our website). After your purchase we offer free email/text help with the plans and the build if you need it. We also sell kits for some designs, builder packs (epoxy materials etc.), and complete custom built boats. Some of which are sold on classifieds board.
Details of everything we do is on our website and information about these items is normally sent with your plans. (Sorry, classifieds board rules prevent us from listing our website address) .
