Whisstock 067
Description
Whisstock Design 067 is a robust, modern-classic 30-foot cruising cutter designed by British naval architect George Whisstock, ideal for serious world cruising or extended coastal voyages. Developed as part of Whisstock's downloadable plans series, this wooden yacht emphasizes strength, lightness, and practicality using wood-epoxy construction techniques pioneered at the family's historic yard in Suffolk, England. With a cutter rig for versatile sail handling, it's suited for shorthanded crews (2-4 people) and offers a comfortable interior for liveaboard use. The design supports multiple build methods, including lapstrake plywood for the hull skin (as seen in build examples like hull 067/06), making it accessible for skilled amateurs or professional yards. Plans are detailed and comprehensive, praised on forums like WoodenBoat for their clarity and builder support. Estimated build time: 2,000-3,000 hours. Full plans (~$500-700) include CNC DXF files for kits, stability curves, and instructions from whisstock.com.
