bay crusier
A model of a bay crusier I made a few years ago(quite a few), I made it without plans, just out of my head. it is 2 foot 9inches long, it is planked with aust. red cedar
above the water line with meranti below. the deck is red cedar and parana pine,it is fitted out inside as a normal boat would be, it has an electric motor driving the screw, battery pack under the rear deck, power the navigation and interior lights as well, finished in 2part esterpol, not made to go in the water only on the maltel now days I would have had solar cells to power every thing1-IMAGE0005.JPG

Beautiful model!!
Parana Pine from southern Brasil. Lovely timber to work with.
It's a member of the Aruacaria family and is therefore related to
Hoop, Bunya and Norfolk Island Pines.
