I just have read through all these posts and most people seam to be asking for plans for the 32" simple build, But I don't see any building. It is easy, just down load the plans from the Cajun Gator site and start building. It took me two weekends to build ,it took longer to paint.







I made the plans 25% bigger and put my .46 rossi on it and it runs better than I thought it would. I'm still smiling.


Thank you Mr Cajun Gator

You are very welcome, and thank you, this makes me very happy to see success from the build plans. Looks like scaling the plans up 25% work out great. the 32" plans guys I do not have those anymore, lost with the computer they were on. As we just seen the plans can be scaled to the size boat you are wanting, these are basic plans and they can be modified, to the style of choice.

It’s not hard to scale plans if they have dimensions

1. Convert all dimensions to a single number for it to work properly (2'-8"=32" )
2. Select the length or width you want (24" )
3. Divide the length you want by the length on the plans (24/32=0.75)
4. Take that number and multiply every dimension on the drawing by it (32x0.75=24)
Take not of witch way the number is going you may have to reveres the order or divide instead of multiply to get the correct dimension
This works for scaling up or down (32/24=1.333)
