Kona Plans Now Available

I've completed the plans for the 25' Kona Hawaiian Sampan design recently and shipped them off to two initial buyers. This hull, like all of my designs, is simple and inexpensive to build using standard construction grade materials. Since it is a semi-planing hull, it means it scoots along nicely on modest power, a 50 hp inboard will get you perhaps 17 - 18 knots while just sipping $4 per gallon gas - perhaps 1-1/2 gallons per hour. It should be perfect for most coastal conditions.
