Please id this Atkins motorboat??

[MarkC]

It comes from the Mcnaughton essay in the Atkin Boat Plans web-site. The boat's name is Namaki - but can anyone identify which plan Namaki is created from?? No more information is given in the essay about this boat.

No idea. If a body wanted a power boat, that's a BOAT! Thanks for the picture. ;)

I want to hitch hike on this thread: does anyone know about another boat in the MacNaughton article, the "We're Here"? It's a smaller boat that looks like a motorboat with sails.

Pat and John Atkin cruised Long Island Sound in We're Here, an economical displacement-hull motorboat with sails. http://www.atkinboatplans.com/

I believe that the Atkins made some interesting cross-over boats, like motor-sailers - see their Bellerophon:

Also, thankyou Ironmule - the Namaki is a rounded-stern seabright-skiff type large motor-vessel!
