I think they were popular home-built projects because they

on the one we got was mostly built---but there was no

Never heard of a scow with any plywood in it. And I never heard of a
homemade scow. Only been sailing them for fifty years, what would I
know? There are two 20 footers, the C with just the main, and the D
with a jib. And the M-20 which is more recent than the 19th century C
and D.
