Shantyboat dreams!

I've been incubating shantyboat dreams for some years now, so thought I'd put some links and resources in one place. Here's Joe McWilliams' mother load Shantyboat Page http://euler.sfasu.edu/Shantyboats/

Here's my Shantydock project. An 8'x16' swim platform with an arched roof.

Here are my reprints of plans for Cool Water. A 1940's getaway houseboat on a $70 budget!

Here's a page where I explore a possible framing plan and materials estimate for small shantyboat.

Here's a "minishantyboat" by Jim Michalak called Harmonica. (this link is off my site)

SHANTEUSE, SHANTYBOAT, 16' X 6', 700 POUNDS EMPTY. Another Jim Michalak design. A stretched Harmonica.

	This is a sketch by the great Phil Bolger. I just heard Phil is selling these again. They are Houseboat plans #481 available from Phil for $150.
