These Classic Moth lines plans popped up on FB. A multi-chine plywood, very much a middle of the road design, "Puriri" looks very worthy of someone building a reproduction. She would definitely fit in the Gen I division of the American Classic Mothboat rules. Puriri is an indigenous New Zealand tree.
More Classic New Zealand Moth designs can be found at this post (from Nedslocker). Includes Bruce Farr's first dinghy designs.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteNice to see the drawing of the Puriri Moth I did for my college thesis back in 1971. The whole thesis is available on the International Moth Lowrider Facebook page. The line drawings were given to me by Major Tony Hibbert Hon Sec. International Moth Class Asscociation in 1972.
