I have often been asked whether we had a traditional Thames or Oxbridge type punt in our design catalogue - now and American client has asked us to draw up a 20' (6.01m) example for simple stitch and tape construction. She has a beam of 3'10" (1.17m) and mid depth of 13" (.32m). Aft is a storage compartment/platform which may be sealed. 4 or 5 sheets of 6mm ply are used and she is fitted out after the hull has been put together with simple frames which give her a very traditional appearance.
