Design Materials:

 

Quality builders know the difference between good design documents and what

their workers sometimes refer to as "Cartoons" or "the Funny Papers" (I have my sources).

We know how to make what is needed

 

The specific design material created for a project will obviously vary from

project to project. The list below, however, is representative of the extent of

materials that developed for boats like the Wright of Passage a Cape Horn-81.
