Hello all, I am considering building a biggish boat around 20-30' and would
this be suitable to go from tumby bay to adelaide for example. I want to
feel safe and secure in it and be able to comftably handly rough water so im
not bobbing around, any ideas, i think that the hull will be made from metal
plate about 1/8" thick. i know it will be heavy but. It will also be used
in the river murray. I wont be building it for a while but would like to
start making plans.

Hi Matt
have a browse through this newsgroup at
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...boats.building

as far as your local authorities are concerned, ask them what
requirements they have, find a design you like and buy the plans.
cheers
