MyBoatPlans – A Wood Work Review
MyBoatPlans
is a comprehensive collection of 518 boat plans, 40 videos and about 500 pages
of boat building guides. I've just bought the entire package and this is my
review on the product:
What Is MyBoatPlans?
The product
offers step by step blueprints on over 518 boats and video lessons on boat
building. The creator, Martin Reid offers a simple, efficient and user-friendly
system to construct any type of boats in a simple way. MyBoatPlans shows the
user how to build over 500 different types of boats ranging from simple canoes
and kayaks to complex designs like a cabin cruiser.

The Pros:
Below are
some of the points I was really impressed with.
1. A Huge Range of Plans To Choose From
They provide
you with detailed plans and diagrams, complete with color pictures and examples
on many types of boats. Sailboats,
skiffs, canoes, kayaks, houseboats, paddle boats, yachts, catamarans,
flat-bottom boats, dinghys and dories, to name a few. There are multiple plans available for each
kind of boat, so you have some variety to choose from.
2. The video section is comprehensive
The 45+
videos on boat building leaves no stone unturned. It consists of the entire boat
building process from conception to the final product. It is great for
beginners who want an easy to follow video guide on boat construction. There
are also videos on boat repair and boat design calculations which are great for
professional builders
3. Great bonuses included
The bonuses
you get with this product are great. You
get a FREE boat designing software, a book on boat construction tips and the
boat-builders handbook which is huge in and of itself.
4. Full Color Pictures
I
appreciated the amount of full color pictures and diagrams that are included in
the manuals. I’m a very visual person, so it is easier for me to follow a
picture or diagram instead of reading paragraphs.
5. Money Back Policy
The 60 day
money back guarantee is always appreciated.
I like seeing a merchant who stands behind their product 100%. It puts the consumer at ease, knowing that
they aren’t going to lose a cent if they choose to not use the system.

The Cons:
1. It takes a while to download
Due to the
huge amount of content available, there is about 900 megabytes to download.
This may take a while if you have a slow connection. However you can opt for
the DVD edition in the members’ area so that solves the issue if you're on a
slow network
2. Less than 20 mega yacht designs
I would like
to see more mega yacht designs and plans. This would be great for professional
boat builders like me who are interested in mega yacht designs.
Conclusion:
MyBoatPlans
is a great collection anyway you look at it. It is suitable for beginners as
well as seasoned builders alike. It offer great value for money considering the
one-time price you pay for such an extensive system.
