| 1. Here is a 40-year-old design by Henry Clark for a simple plywood pram dinghy. The sides and bottom will come out of a single 8' x 4' sheet of 1/4" plywood. It would be an ideal stitch-and-glue project. |

| There's only one critical dimension on page 3. It's 41.5 inches from gunwale to gunwale at its widest point, measured inside the plywood before the rub rail goes on. You can buy a facsimile copy of the original plans and building instructions very cheaply from Mr Donald Goodchild. For details, go to www.dngoodchild.com | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
