Macomber 15

The Macomber 15 is a traditionally built flat bottom Westport River Skiff.  She is built of white oak and mahogany and planked with eastern white pine.  It's workboat roots, shallow draft and stability make it a great choice for picnicking, fishing, shellfishing, or simply messing about.  All aspects of the boats design and construction are “overbuilt” to assure a long and useful life with nothing more than the usual proper care and maintanace that a well built wooden boat deserves.

The plans package consists of 3 pages of scaled drawings, a 10 page builders guide.  The plans show in detail how to build the jig, and structural members of the hull. The builders guide walks you through the building of the hull.
