Coastworker 25

Hello Bruce its some time since I gave you an update on my Coastworker, the boat is now finished and on the water. It lives on a mooring on Loch Lomond in Scotland.

 
I have attached some photos for you, I am very pleased with the results, I have had some minor problems which included some leaking windows along with a fuel problem which I now have under control.
 
I will keep in touch, by the way since you put some of my earlier photos on your web site I have had a couple of people track me down in the UK one guy lives in London and is proposing to purchase some plans from you and build either a Coastworker or a Waverunner, I have given him some tips and ideas, his name is Andy and he lives in Buckinghamshire and plans to use his boat on the River Thames
 
Good luck  Kind regards

Regards that chap had the CW25 hull built and turned over only  two weeks after receiving the plans. It was a small engineering shop with two partners, business was slow and so they decided to build themselves a boat.

Still 2 weeks is a good effort and it's something that I mention to everyone. I did have reason to ring these men up again last Christmas, 5 months after they had bought the plans and the boat was completely finished. The call had been diverted from their work number to their mobile and they were on the Broad-water with their wives on the boat!

HI Bruce, I ordered a set of plans for my best friend for Christmas, here it is 1month later & we are going to start putting the bottom on her today. The planing hull design is excellent. She's a weekend project because both of us have full time jobs. We can't wait to christen her "Keel Estate". Some pictures & updates are soon to follow....Regards John Dunn

HI Bruce, I recently received my plans and patterns for the coastworker 25', 8' planning hull Steel / Aluminium. I must say I am more than happy. One thing I am curious about getting though is the patterns on a cad file, I have just noticed this information on the your web site and was hoping you could send me some information on the cost and the style of format e.g. dwg,dxf etc.. thanks once again      Brett Muller

ANSWER: We can supply AutoCAD files for any parts of the plans and patterns ... they are in DWG format.
