The first thing I did was label the plans per the one
page list of instructions. After reading
other boat plans, schedules, lofting requirements, tables of offsets, etc., I
found that the labeling process is very helpful in understanding how the boat
is put together. I than started a “Cut List” to determine how much lumber I
would need and the type of lumber that I would need. I quickly found out that
this wasn’t the place to start. There are so many pieces of various wood types
and lengths that it’s hard to get a realistic list together. So I decided to
make a model of the boat to the scale of 1 inch to the foot. Here’s the
sequence of events that followed for the building of the Melonseeds hull.
