Wooden sailboat kits – are they better than building from scratch?
A wooden sailboat kit can be very expensive to go several thousand dollars, and even comes with everything you need – if you buy yourself plans and materials – you can save big money kit for wooden sailing. What I found is that sails and rigging are not included in the kit wooden sailboat, which makes the price even higher.
Remember that if you buy a kit wooden sailing, you must pay shipping on all materials, simply raise the cost your project. Personally, I think it's much easier to buy the plans and acquire the same material, is a form of control quality that I prefer. Then I know exactly the hardware that I receive.
When I dive deeper into the line of research, I found you can usually buy a set of plans for about $ 200 – $ 250 – for a boat. The larger boats or more advanced, higher the price of these plans. But if I wanted to have several plans available. To go with the boat, I need a small boat towed behind So when the anchor on the high seas, I have a way to reach the coast. This added complication that I wanted to do.
Until I found This site in particular that made me happy not to abandon the search. I found a site that offers plans for more than 200 boats and designs, including including sailing boats. Is supplemented with material lists, and extra bonuses for one fifth of the price of a single set of plans! If I want those plans on DVD instead of downloading – I do I get it!
Although the purchase of a wooden sailboat kit seems easier because that all you have to do is to ride – I'd rather have more control over materials and products that then choose to use someone wants me. I just need to make sure I can get the right kind wood – marine plywood – and marine paint – and everything else is pretty standard.
Why spend money that is not necessary? That's my motto and I'm always looking for the best deal – at the best price – it offers a quality I seek. No need to spend thousands of dollars for a wooden sailboat kit when I can get over 200 plans and build a ship that I want – and much less than if I bought a kit or purchase a new sailboat or used!
It's all about quality for me – and when I am in charge of the construction project from beginning to end, I know exactly the quality I get. It's a joke around my house – I build things is my way of quality control!
