Hi ,
As builder of the fibreglass National 10 Class boats, AKA Turnabouts, I am looking for a copy of plans for building a wooden boat.
Any info or leads would be welcomed.

Theres lots of them out there! Being more specific is always a plus around here as well as being thick skinned! Some would say to hollow out a log and you'll have a wooden boat! You could do a google search for wooden boat plans; http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&aq=0&oq=wooden+boat+plans&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4ADBR_enUS256US256&q=wooden+boat+plans+free

Sorry to some what pounce, the better question would be to ask what would be an easy build for a tupperware builder as there is a world of differance between wood and fiberglass!

Now let the lashings begin!

The Sandy Bay Yacht Club in Rockport, Massachusetts actually raced Turnabouts as a class boat at one time.

I also remember reading someplace about a husband and wife cruising for two weeks or more in a Turnabout, perhaps in the Carolina Sounds. They must have been VERY compatable.
