Roberts 31
| This is an earlier design that some
traditionalists may find appealing. It may be built with either a regular trunk cabin or
with a pilot house and full construction plans have been drawn up for both fibreglass
or wood epoxy (strip plank method) . The complete plans and full size patterns
include many sheets of large-scale drawings, plus the full-size frame patterns for the
hull, deck and cabin top beams, etc. A boat from a bygone, more sedate era. This design
has also been known as the Roberts 31/32. The Henry Morgan 32 is a version
that has a more traditional topsides while still retaining the same
underwater hull shape. This design comes with a wide choice of rigs. The large scale SUPER STUDY PLAN PACKAGE includes sample construction drawings for wood epoxy and fibreglass plus all the different general arrangement, accommodation plans and sail plans. All this for only $41 plus postage. |
