Ok Im def a newB to Boat building and such however my friend and i
would like to build a boat we could use around the intercoastal and
in
the ocean for short distances. I was hoping i could build one that
would fit up to 6 people. I would like it to be anywhere from 18 to
24
feet long. We played with the idea of jet propulsion but am not 100 %
sure thats a good idea. So if anyone could explain the different hull
designs and places i could go and get some designs for building a
power
boat that can move anywhere from 15 to 20 knots. Hold 6 people. Be
stable enough to withstand some waves (1-3 feet light/moderately
choppy).Relativley easy to build. Cost is an issue so hopefully it
wont
cost too much. It soundslike im asking for alot. Any information and
help would be very appriciated.

Well, I am surprised Jaques is not here yet... seeing as this time, he
probably IS the place to start Anyway, go to bateau.com and contact
them at the forums, he probably has something for you there..
