I am teaching a wooden boat building class at my high school and we are going to build Atkin's 10 ft. flatbottomed skiff Mabel. I want to show the kids what it will look like as they aren't good at visualising from plans and wonder if anyone has pictures of one. Thanks in advance Todd Miller

Don't find Mabel in Atkin's catalog listing. Got a link to the plans?

A guy in my shop built a couple of them with cypress sides and plywood bottoms. They're nice little skiffs, though I personally prefer Atkin's "Dancer". I've got a few photos of them, but it will take me a while to dig them out, scan them, and post them.
