    To start, you need a basic set of plans with the ship's ribs drawn on it. Personally, I would browse the free plans in the Ship Plans area and pick one that has a hull the length you want the hull to be. Take the file to a print shop like Kinkos and get it printed. Cost is around $10 ~ $20.

    After that, just follow the Bearn build thread on how to build a wood ship. It's at Visit this site

    i would recommend you build a ship under a clubs rules means you can have some fun with more people. plus rules add an extra dimension to the art required in building one.
