If you could build one small boat in your back yard, what would it be?
What material, and where would you use it, why, etc.....???

Scotty, from Rottedboats.com


I'd like to build a scale model (12 feet) of the PT 109. Keel would
be Douglas Fir (cause a friend has some Kants just laying around) and
Marine Plywood. Engine would be a weed wacker engine. I've seen these
done already. The Operator sits down inside the Boat invisible to the
Public, looking out through stratigically placed "peep holes".
Other models done have been Battleships, and Nuclear Submarines. There
ARE picture available.
