Description
The 8' Skiffle is a simple motor boat designed for children to use although she can accommodate a small adult. The hull uses a flat bottom panel with single bilge and side panels and uses simple stitch & tape methods in her construction. She can take outboard motors of around 5 to 7hp - she could take more powerful motors but 7hp is a safe limit. Construction takes just 4 sheets of 6mm plywood.
