Order Downloadable Plans
IndexBeach Cats & Dinghies |
Woods Designs have joined the 21st century and our preferred plan delivery method now is to supply you with electronic downloadable versions of our plans. The downloaded plans are identical to the paper plans, as they are simply professionally scanned electronic copies of the original drawings. The benefit to you is that not only can you get the plans immediately, but because we have to do less work printing them out and arranging physical shipment we can also dramatically reduce the price.
However physical printed plans are still available. Please CLICK HERE to order physical paper plans or either of our two videos.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you try to order a download plan and the order is not completed please try again later. If you still cannot complete the order please email me and I will try to sort out the problem.
Please Note: When you place an order you get an acknowledgment email and receipt. In the top righthand corner of the receipt it says "CLICK Here to Download" So, click on the link to get your download plans. Simple!
Please follow this link for more information about what's included in each of the various different types of plan packages and guidance on what to buy. You can also see an example download showing the high quality of our scanned plans.

These boats have added load carrying and increased seakindliness compared to smaller designs so are more suited for offshore sailing.

| Mira | 10.65m deep V hull open deck ocean cruiser | ||||
| Mirage | 10.9m hard chine open deck cruiser |
Over 40ft
All these designs are more suited for offshore sailing. We do not recommend home builders to attempt a boat over 40 ft unless experienced and want a boat for charter or long term cruising. Most families will find that boats under 40 ft will comfortably meet their needs.

| Eclipse Log book | I cruised my Eclipse catamaran thousands of miles
over a five year period. Although I posted a basic log book on
the web site to keep you updated on my progress, I also have a
full log book available to download as a .PDF file. The log book
is over 300 pages long and contains thousands of words, and hundreds
of photos and maps. As a result it is a large file (approx 9MB).
An extract from this log book won the 2004 Venture Trophy, presented by MOCRA (the British Multihull Association) for the best multihull cruising story published in 2004. |
Please NOTE:
Downloadable plans are NOT available for Stealth, Gwahir, Scorpio, Javelin, Scylla, Nimbus, Ondina, Cirrus.
