A Happy Customer
“Your plans were right on. I have yet to find any mistakes and all of the measurements and angles were accurate. This has been a very enjoyable experience and I am now looking forward to building my next boat. Thanks for the design and the hard work you put into the plans so that mere novices like myself can experience the joy of building and using their own boat!”-Jeff Ragsdale, Winter Haven, Florida

Easy To Follow Plans
All of the boat plans from Jordan Wood Boats are developed and drawn with the non-professional or first-time boatbuilder in mind. The plans for each boat are easy to follow and require no lofting. They include large-scale construction drawings for all assemblies and full-size patterns where appropriate. To clarify the building process, comprehensive construction notes describing all components are number-keyed to the corresponding assemblies in all the drawings.
Boat Building Manual
My book, “Boatbuilding My Way”, is a comprehensive guide to my boat building systems, detailing the construction methods, and time and labor saving techniques I’ve developed over the years to simplify and enhance the building process. It is the ideal companion to plans from Jordan Wood Boats, and includes plans for building two Jordan Wood Boats favorites.

A Note to Teachers & Mentors
The plans and boat building manual featured on my website have proven to be very effective teaching tools for use in industrial arts classes, boatbuilding schools, adult education, and community and youth development programs. Activities that challenge both hand and mind, teach valuable occupational skills, encourage teamwork, and result in a product that inspires a sense of pride and accomplishment can be valuable academic and community resources. And, as a bonus, building a wooden boat provides many opportunities for interdisciplinary instruction, because it typically involves a host of related skills. My plans have all been meticulously developed and drawn for the amateur builder, and by using my book as a guide, the instructor requires no prior boatbuilding experience. If you would like to consider adding a boatbuilding unit to your curriculum, please browse through my website for a look at my designs; and don’t hesitate to contact me for more information by using the “Contact” link on the home page.
