Re:Need help finding plans, Bolger Cabin Clam Skiff

Ned is right but it could be those big 4 stroke outboards. The
prototype Cabin Clam Skiff had a big motor, and all the other pics
seem to have followed that direction.

I recently bought an unused set of Clam Skiff and Cabin Clam plans. Payson sells the original skiff plans, but you'll need to get the cabin add-on sheets from Bolger.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
I'm looking for the plans for Bolgers' Cabin Clam Skiff, Phil Bolger's
design #606-II. Here are a couple of links to ones that have been built:

and
http://tinyurl.com/boq4kd

I have the latest book from Dynamite Payson, "Instant Boat Building" that
has the plans for the 18' Clam Skiff I want to build. Problem is I cannot
locate any place to buy the plans from for the cabin version. I'm sure I
could come up with a cabin of my own, but why waste plywood when I don't
have to.

Appreciate any help,
