Heck, it's cheap, and being a plans junky I have to give it a shot. ;)

Interesting. I wonder if a guy could get in trouble for selling someone else's designs even if they are already posted on the internet. Example:

and this:

from Øyvind Gulbrandsen's paper entitled Fishing boat designs: 2 V-bottom boats of planked and plywood construction. First page of the paper. (http://www.fao.org/DOCREP/003/W7260E/W7260E00.htm)

Most of these I've run across are collections of older designs published in magazines and "how to build" articles where the designer collected a single comprehensive fee, or where the designer put them out as promotions.

How bout an update after you get a chance to review it? I wonder if they are all metric.

Got my disc today! Pretty cool, complete scans of the original articles/plans, from both sides of the "pond"- well worth $12 or whatever! :cool:

In Adobe, which isn't my favorite, (kinda slow), but you can "blow them up" to see all the details.

No index, at least that I've found yet. :(

Any of my plans on there?
