When I was a kid my dad and I started to build a 14' runabout named "ACE". I can't remember where my dad bought the plans from. I would like to find out and build one for old times sake. We never did finnish it and I would love to do this in his memory. If anyone has any information on "ACE" it would be much appriciated.

Thanks, Dale

William D. Jackson designed an outboard runabout called ACE. If I've got the right boat, I've found a source for the plans (with a photo). Go to the link below, and look under outboard runabouts . . .

Arch Davis has a 14' sailboat called Ace. Could this be it?

Here's the link to the Website if this is the right boat.

Thanks for the help. Steve you had the right "ACE". It looks so small now. When I was a kids I thought it was huge ! Im going to order the plans and someday build it for my father. Maybe it will help me put some things to rest.

Thanks again guys. Dale
