Because expense and lack of supporting technology and skilled labor often preclude using steel or fiberglass to build the small, inshore fishing vessels used in developing country artisanal fisheries, attention is now being focused on plywood as a basic boatbuilding material. This practical manual presents a detailed description, illustrated with diagrams and photographs, of the plywood skiffs made at Brockway Boat Works in Connecticut. These vessels are inexpensive, versatile, and easy to maintain; they run mainly on low horsepower outboard motors, and their flat-bottomed design saves on fuel consumption and affords maneuverability. Included are lists of necessary materials and tools, and plans for both a trolling and an outboard skiff.
