House Boat Plans

===>> Click here to get all your boat plans now! <<===

House boat plans can be hard to find. Especially if you don’t have an architect of boat builder friend and designer. I didn’t. In fact when Maggie my wife and I decided we want to retire out on a houseboat we didn’t really know anything about boat building or boat plans at all. I’d been on the odd boat, but never had any sailing experience.

And we were a little bit nervous, we were going to spend a bunch of money on a house boat and we didn’t’ really know what to look for. I mean how do you figure out what to look for when buying a house boat? It’s not the same as a car.

And once we had figured that part out we wanted to figure out house boat plans so that we could make it into something nicer and more livable for us. We had a great boat, but we wanted to give it our own touch. After a lot of searching I found this great website that has all the boat plans you could ever need for a few lifetimes.

In fact, if I had found it earlier I might even have been inclined to try and build my own house boat! But that would have been quite a big project. But if you’re looking to build your own boat then check out this site. They have catamaran plans, dinghy plans, skiff plans, wooden boat plans and of course houseboat plans. This is certainly a terrific resource if you want to build your own boat.

I shared with you in an earlier post that I have a friend who is building a yacht. I shared this resource with him and he loves their boat building plans. His yacht is coming along nicely and I’m looking forward to spending some good times on it.

Wooden boat building is easy with this website. I built my grandson a little plywood boat that is about 2 feet long and looks identical to our house boat. In fact I took the house boat plan and just scaled it down to get it just right. He always brings it along when he comes to visit us and we tow it behind as we sail out of the harbour. He loves it.

I’ve used the house boat plans or actually, the house boat floor plans to renovate the inside of our little house boat. It took me over a year to do it, just tinkering away. We were living in the houseboat after all. But the house boat floor plans were very easy to follow. This is what I love about these house boat plans I’ve found. The fella has written them clearly and concisely so that they are easy to follow. Lots of pictures too. For me that really helps.

So whatever kind of boat plans you’re looking for, from yacht plans to skiff plans and house boat plans. Do you yourself a favor and have a look at this resource. I wish I had it earlier, it would have saved me a ton of time.

Happy sailing,

The idea of living on a house boat is quite captivating to many people. The belief that anyone who owns one can simply set sail for a distant land at any time is prevalent. This is not always the case in reality of course but that largely depends on the skills of the home owning captain, the houseboat plans they have in mind, and the size of the house boat. A larger house boat can be seen as something along the lines of a yacht whereas a smaller one might be nothing more than a floating mobile home similar to a trailer house on a boat. The former version can easily sail the world. The latter version might be able to do so as well, but it would have to pull into port far more often due to a limit in space and available supplies.

Either way house boats are quite a beloved concept by many. Some might desire to buy one someday or even build their own. If purchasing a houseboat is an individual’s goal then this can be done fairly easily. However, building a houseboat is something that should be done by an experienced contractor unless you are doing it for fun, or experience. In either case there will be a need for house boat plans.

Houseboat plans are the overall design of the floating home. In some instances these plans might not be for the actual creation of the houseboat per se. They might simply be a design for proper decoration and renovation of such a vessel. So long as the balance of the houseboat and the primary components such as the hull are not negatively affected this is a fairly safe practice to perform in a do it yourself capacity.

Whether designing a houseboat from scratch, purchasing one, or simply acquiring pre-made plans for one and then having it built, the end result is a home that can take you to places that no simple recreational vehicle or bus ride can. A houseboat is the ultimate expression of freedom and as long as your passport remains valid there is nowhere that the ocean touches that cannot be reached without leaving your own home.

It should be noted that some individuals will prefer not to live on their boats in the open ocean and as such many houseboat plans take into account that some people will choose to live on large lakes instead. No matter where an individual chooses to live with their houseboat it is a unique opportunity to remove themselves from being locked to land and the constant hassle of dealing with people that simply do not know how to relax and enjoy life.
