Part 2: Readers Help Design the Perfect Little Boatshop

…And They Have Lots of Great Ideas to Share on the Subject

Last month, in Part 1, we brainstormed about an ideal shop design for readers who want to build a boat in the 20-foot length range, or smaller. The idea was to come up with a fresh and relatively affordable design that would be flushed out by an architect, with plans to hopefully be made available by Glen-L Marine Designs—always a source of boat plans and kits, but recently also a provider of plans for vacation cabins and other tiny houses.

We asked you, as a reader of Small Craft Advisor, to join in the fun, describing small boatshops you’ve built or worked in, along with interior details that would make your Perfect Little Boatshop more functional: Stationary tools and their placement; storage for lumber, paint products, clamps, hand tools, epoxy and other small-shop items…and more.
