This 13' flat bottom skiff is a real workboat. It is so easy to build that you can build it in a day (maybe add a few days for fairing and painting ).

The 13' J - Skiff is not a lightweight boat, but it is for sure stable and will do very well for both fishing and sailing with friends. In fact this boat is so stable that you can even use it as a drift boat.

The boat will go well with an outboard engine between 4 and 12 hp. With only 5 sheets of plywood this boat is very affordable to build and the real easy building process makes no excuse for not getting started building right away.

This boat is easy to build using our downloadable boat plans

Our boat plans are available for instant download so you can start building right away. Available in PDF file formats, each plan includes drawings showing exact dimensions for the hull panels and frame, plus comprehensive building instructions and assembly details.

No carpentry or boat-building skills necessary

You don't need any boat-building experience to build this boat – just lift the dimensions from the plans and transfer them directly onto the plywood sheets. The plans allow you to draw full size pictures of the parts of the boat - the bottom pieces, side pieces etc. Once you're done, simply cut around the lines using a jigsaw, then use the stitch and glue building method to finish your boat.
