FOOTNOTES
  1. All ferro-cement designs specify the use of high strength ½” 19-gauge square welded mesh. “Chicken wire” is of inadequate strength and not acceptable.
  2. Price shown is for owner-builders. Professional builders please call or write for royalty/licensing agreement.
  3. Plans are in the process of being converted for this material. Existing plans will be sent on receipt of payment. Please allow approximately 60-120 days for delivery of the revised drawings.
  4. Displacement shown is for the boat in cruising trim, with tanks filled and people and stores aboard. For small open boats it is for the estimated structural weight only.
  5. Bid and Stock Plans only sold through licensed builder. Contact Benford Design Group for information on how to reach licensed builder

DISPLACEMENT & CONSTRUCTION COSTS
   Costs for boatbuilding these days are fairly directly tied to the volume or displacement (weight) of the vessel involved. The feedback we've been receiving from our various builders indicates to us that costs are running from about $2.50/pound for the very heavy displacement types to over $4/pound for the lighter displacement boats. For an example, look at the range of displacements for our 50' designs - they range from 32,750 to 110,000 pounds. Using the lower $2.50 price times 110,000 gives $275,000 and the higher $4 times 32,750 gives $131,000.

   These prices are for materials only, exclusive of any hired labor, tools, building site, building shed, insurance, launching, and inflation over the time during which the vessel is built.

   A professionally built boat is running from a low of around $5/pound for the very heavy ones to well beyond $20 for the lighter ones. This would include the materials above plus the labor to transform them into a boat, but with no allowance for inflation. This figure can readily be run up, depending on the level of finish and detail, plus the costs for electronics and other extras that may be added as the boat is being built. Of course, the costs in a boat can be unlimited, as we all tend to add "just one more" item to them in an ongoing fashion, but these figures generally include all the basics such as engines, sails, berths, head and galley.

A CAVEAT....
   We are known to be, perhaps, the most careful and conservative of designers. We take great care in trying to be sure that the designs are well thought out and detailed. However, there is always the possibility of a transposition or otherwise incorrect notation slipping by us in proofing the drawings. I remember one occasion, where ten years after we'd issued a drawing it was pointed out to us that we had the engine exhausting a couple feet underwater.... We then sent out over 60 notices to builders worldwide to correct this wrong note. Thus, if anything does not seem right, call or write us and let us know.

WHAT ARE STUDY PLANS?
   Study plans are a way of looking at the outboard profile and/or sail plan and the accommodation plan of a boat in larger scale than is shown in our catalog and books. Many find this helpful in being able to scale various elements of the design to visualize how they would live on the boat and use it before going ahead with building the boat.

   Thus, study plans are the outboard profile drawing (the sail plan on a sailing boat) and the accommodation plan (what would be called the floor plan in a house). Oftentimes, there are more than one version of a design and these are usually included in the study plan package. This varying content accounts for the varying prices listed for the study plans - the higher the price the more sheets of drawings included. The only exception to this is the Benford 30 set where there are over two dozen versions of the design and we usually limit the B30 study plan package to two versions. Most of the plans are about two by three feet in size and printed by the Xerox process on bond paper. Unlike older ammonia process prints, these will not fade when hung in sunlight.

   In the case of the boats that are in our books, there is often more detailed information on the boats in the books than on the study plans, with the proviso that the drawings are reproduced at a reduced scale. Thus, the books are the best way to get an overview of the designs and the best place to start. In the following lists are Book Codes showing which boats are in which books.

WHAT ARE ESTIMATING/BID PLANS?
   For the last three decades we've offered as "study plans" the profile or sail plan and arrangement plan sheets from our "stock plans" or construction plan sets.

   Now, with the increasing complexity of gear available for cruising boats, and raw materials costs continuing to rise, we've decided to offer an alternative level of plans. These will be between the conceptual picture of the designs found in the study plans and the complete building plan sets. They will offer the prospective owner or builder a way to look over all the information on the plans about the scantlings and equipment specified. Thus, you will be able to do a better job of estimating the cost in time and materials to build the boat before committing to the full cost of the stock plans.

   Our pricing is primarily based on the number of prints to be provided with a bit of a sliding scale factor built in to make the smaller boats less expensive.

   When you've finished work estimating from the plans and wish to proceed with building the boat, it's then the time to buy the stock plans. To do this, you may pay the difference between the estimating/bid plans and the stock plans and have us send the balance of the plans and your authorization or building rights for one boat. Or, you can pay the full stock plan price and get a complete new set of stock plans sent to you, thus having duplicate prints for most all of the plans if you need one for the shop and one set for home.

WHAT ARE STOCK PLANS?
   Included in this booklet is a list of our stock plans, current as of the date listed at the beginning. These are plans that have already been completed for someone else, usually as a custom design. They are offered "as is" and printed "from stock" and thus the origin of the name stock plans.

   Our stock plans usually include the following drawings, as applicable to each boat: Lines Plan; Table of Offsets; Construction Plan; Sections; Inboard Profiles; Arrangement Plan; Deck Plan; Sail Plan and/or Outboard Profile; Rigging Details; Rig Plan; Engine, Steering & Tanks; and other details (sometimes standardized) as required. If the builder had done his homework by reading the boatbuilding books available, researching and/or working in various boatyards, and has the foresight to build at least a dinghy, if not one or two small boats before tackling a larger yacht, he'll find that our plans are quite explicit.

   In the cases where there is more than one version already designed for the basic hull of one of our stock plans, these versions are usually included in the stock plan package. Such options may include alternate cabin profiles, different interiors, rig variations, and/or handy cross-reference information. When ordering stock plans which have more than one version please specify your preference of rig, interior and/or choice of construction method or material.

   If you don't see what you're looking for amongst our printed stock plan lists please be sure to give us a call. We'd be happy to work with you on a modified version or a new design especially for you.

   In the pages of our PRICE LIST are the prices for the Study Plans, Bid Plans and Stock Plans.
