19 foot BARTENDER   Back ●  Next

   The smallest of the BARTENDER fleet, this scrappy little craft provides rough water handling and safety not found in many bigger boats.

   The 19-footer is designed for outboard motor power and will give good service with outboards ranging from 25 - 50 hp. A 40 hp outboard is recommended as ideal for a variety of loads and uses. The motor well allows the outboard to tilt for beaching or trailering.

  The 19-footer is the economy BARTENDER any safety-conscious mariner will appreciate. Its’ size and simple plywood on frame construction method make it a great first boat to build. We've recently updated these plans to include new construction details, simplified building techniques, and full-size paper patterns for all framing components. No lofting required.
