At the moment, along with developing new kits I'm also revising some of the older kits. One thing that computer drawing has let me do is add color to the traditionally black and white plans. This makes it easier to differentiate among the various laser-cut components and saves having to describe the color scheme for the model. I'm just finishing up revising the Herreshoff 12 1/2 kit and here are a couple of the new drawings. The GA/Sail Plan drawing is 24" x 36", so some of the details may be hard to see in this reduction.
