I've built the Stevenson Projects MiniCup boat and have been quite happy
with it overall. You may want to check out the MiniCup FAQ at
http://www.byyb.org/pn/modules.php?o...y es&id_cat=9
or go to the http://www.byyb.org site and follow the links. There's also
some information on my own website - http://www.floatingbear.ca/

My own opinion is that although you could build the boat out 1/8" ply you
would have some loss of hull strength as well as having problems fastening
such thin ply to the stringers.

Has anybody built this boat? Do you reccomend any changes.
Considering the age of the plans, are there any materials other than
1/4" ply that would be lighter?

I am interested in building two for my kids.

Thanks for the info.
