Motor boat «Rainbow-51» The project of the pleasure and tourist cabin motor boat «Rainbow-51» In our northern latitudes, as practice suggests, for long family trips, a cabin motorboat with a length of about 5 m is necessary: with smaller dimensions, it is not possible to ensure habitability; with larger ones, the vessel will not go out for planing with outboard motors available for sale, it will require the installation of an automobile converted engine and a reverse gearbox, which significantly complicates the matter... read more>>>

Boat «Chizhik» The boat «Chizhik» is a homemade two- or three-person rowing boat for tourism, fishing, hunting According to this project, several boats have already been built, which have shown themselves well in operation. Despite its small size, the «siskins» behave quite solidly on the water: you can safely walk around the boat without fear of turning over, it is quite seaworthy, it goes well on oars and with an outboard motor with a capacity of up to 5 hp (including «Surf» and «Arrow»). The boat can be carried on your hands, transported by car... read more>>>

Collapsible cabin mini-boat Collapsible cabin mini-boat It is very important for residents of cities remote from the «big» water to have such a vessel that could be transported by various modes of transport without much difficulty and stored in an ordinary apartment. These conditions are best met by collapsible soft-skinned kayaks, folding hunting shuttles and a sectional loner «Baby», but all these are purely rowing and uncomfortable vessels, and I wanted to have something like a collapsible motor floating... read more>>>

Collapsible boat with soft skin Collapsible boat with soft skin The complexity of solving the problem of urban parking, winter storage of ships, as well as transporting them by land forces many water-motor tourists to be interested in collapsible structures. Here are the drawings of a small boat for a motor with a capacity of up to 10 hp, as if combining the advantages of a collapsible kayak in terms of ease of storage and transportation and a «real» motor boat for 2-4 people... read more>>>

Half-ton «ST-28» Half-ton «ST-28». Yacht design for self-construction There is an urgent need to build — along with cruising and racing vessels of other types — yachts of minimal dimensions, capable of participating in long sea races and at the same time not burdensome in daily operation. In our opinion, the best variant of a vessel that meets such requirements is a half-ton; even a small team of yachtsmen can carry out the construction of such a yacht using the simplest technological equipment and available materials... read more>>>

Seaworthy motor boat for large reservoirs Project and drawings of a seaworthy motor boat — motorboat for large reservoirs When developing the drawings of this motor boat, I counted on the fact that anyone with a little skill with carpentry tools could build it. In addition, the boat was intended for sea bays and large reservoirs, so it had to have increased seaworthiness — the ability to go through the waves without reducing speed, while not splashing and not being flooded with high wave crests... read more>>>

Homemade steel trimaran Trimaran with your own hands — a homemade boat made of steel I have long wanted to build a small, comfortable and safe boat that could be transported on the roof of a car or on a light trailer. After reviewing the projects for self-construction, I decided to build a boat with trimaran contours with my own hands. In December, my experimental trimaran made of 1 mm thick steel sheets was ready. In May, on a lake near Tyumen, I tried out my brainchild... read more>>>

Manual boat flipper Hand-held fin propulsion for the boat For the movement of light watercraft on the water, I suggest using a manual fin mover instead of paddles. It is easily disassembled into four components, in this form it takes up little space. The dimensions of the parts depend on the size of the boat. We have made such a propulsion system for use on a six-oared yawl and yacht... read more>>>

The rigid structure of my two-seater catamaran-hydroped consists of a folding seat with a backrest, a deck... read more>>>
