I've spent almost as many hours researching various websites for free boat plans as I have searching for HPB sites and trying to find anything that will aid me in building my boat.
I found a few sites that offered free plans if you signed up for a newsletter, (which I did and the news letter is pretty informative for me who's never built a boat before) to totally free plans from the 1950's which in it self it pretty interesting from some of the neat plans they have. There are even plans there for jet ski's (only using an outboard motor).
Here are a few of the sites I've checked out (repeatedly):
http://www.svensons.com/boat/
http://www.boatplans.dk/ (great newsletter and 2 free boat plans)
http://home.clara.net/gmatkin/freedes.htm
http://www.unclejohns.com/skiff/Default.htm (this is the site where I've gotten my plans)
The plans look simple enough and the price was decent at $27.00 however, one day while downloading a spare set of plans, I got the plans that had all of the dimensions included so I really got the plans for free and there are so many photo's of boats that people have built, I figured this is the boat for me.
