      From my Blog: https://house-doc.net/Oonagh

      In October 2020 I ordered the plans for Oonagh from OffCenterHarbor.com. Oonagh is a 12′ x 5′ pram with a gaff rig. Off Center Harbor also offers a kit with all the plywood parts pre-cut. There are a number of structural parts that need to be made from tropical hardwoods and I sourced some African Mahogany from Maryland-Select Hardwoods in Charles County.

      One of the side benefits of this project is that I get to buy lots of new tools. While waiting for the kit to arrive I get to build the miniature sawhorses that will be needed for the mold.

      I initially thought it would be good to have the boat on casters, but in the end I didn’t use them.

      The plans are pretty detailed and Off Center Harbor has promised videos of the boat being built at Hylan & Brown.

      December 3rd, the kit finally arrives on a large 4’x8′ pallet.

      It takes me several days to remove each of the 10 sheets, cut out each part and then plane & sand the edges smooth.

      There are a lot of parts. This is a small sample.
