Cape Charles 32 news

Dudley Dix,the designer of the Cape Charles 32, told me this week that the plans have progressed to the point were a boat can be built by a profesional.We need to take it a little further to enable a CNC cut kit set but all it will take is your order.The base cost will be around R95,815 (U$11,829) only, plus the plans at U$900,so about R7290.Thats an attractive package for such a large boat kit set,being some 81 sheets of 12mm marine grade plys ready cut for assembly.

Wood to the boats stringers,building stocks and epoxies are an extra,we can supply those as part of the package if requested.Shipping cost on request,as the plys in a flat pack are only three cubic meters,we would expect the cost to be reasonable,say R8000 to the USA,thats about U$987 right now.


The layout as drawn can be changed to suit your needs,this is a large volume boat and will make a great cruising boat.

From our side we can offer the plans only or the plans and a kit,which can further be supplied as a built up hull and deck unit which you can fit out and finish yourself.
