PURCHASING ePLANS
EMAILED / DOWNLOADED ePLANS are an alternative to the standard delivered printed plans we have traditionally provided. They differ from the standard plans in that they are delivered direct to you by Email. At present ePlans are not yet available for all designs, however we are working as fast as possible to correct that situation. In an attempt to keep up with the 21st Century, we have decided to provide our plans electronically as an option for our clients, because of the following significant advantages.
PURCHASING ePLANS They can be purchased using our PayPal Secure Online Payment Facility, using the 'Buy Now' buttons on the respective design pages. Clicking the 'Buy Now' button will take you direct to PayPal's secure web site to carry out the purchase transaction. NOTE# once you have completed your ePlan purchase you should NOT click your back button, or click way from the PayPal web page. PayPal will provide a link to bring you back to this web site, where you will be provided further information regarding the download or email delivery of your plans . The entire process should take you no more than a few minutes. When your ePlan is sent to you by Email, and for any reason the delivery experiences problems (some smaller ISP's have limits on attachment size) we will make sure you are able to receive your plan some other way (such as a download link.) If for any reason you fail to download your study ePlan, or do not receive your emailed full plan or download link within 48 hours, (sadly, the Internet is not perfect) you should contact us by email straight away, and we will re-send, or arrange for you to receive your plans ASAP, by some other method. Please allow us reasonable time to respond, due to time differences. Note# we have never failed to deliver to a client. If for any reason we are unable
to ensure that you receive your plans, we will direct PayPal to refund
your purchase price.
FULL ePLANS Our ePlans are exactly the same in content as our delivered printed plans. Full ePlans are in the form of a Zip file containing PDF files for each plan sheet and each document. They are emailed to you, or a downoad link is provided. Most of the zip files are downloadable in a few minutes, however some of our more detailed big boat plans are fairly large, and may take a little longer to download, may contain 2 Zip files, and may be split over 2 emails. Unfortunately problems can (rarely) occur with internet connections.
If you should experience any difficulty in receiving plans etc, please
accept our apologies in advance and contact us straight away so that we
can correct the problem and make sure you get your plans ASAP.
STUDY ePLANS Again, our Study ePlans are exactly the same in content as our delivered printed study plans. Study ePlans are downloaded by you immediately as a a Zip File containing PDF Files for each plan sheet and each document. In general, plan sheet PDFs are A3 in size. All document files are A4. Most localities around the world have printing shops who can print these files, and they can be viewed directly on your computer.. Our standard study plans include reduced (A3) copies of several of the actual full size (A1) plan sheets. Each sheet will generally contain several drawings related to the construction of the vessel. A typical study plan will contain 5-6 sheets, covering the basic profile and arrangements, sail and rigging, sample construction drawings, and for larger designs, a deck layout plan. In addition, the study plans include a materials list for the construction of the hull/deck etc., and a written run down on the vessel, its basic concept and statistics, its intended purpose and the contents of the full building plan. Some of our Study Plans are produced in A4 eBook format, and instead of having 5 - 6 reduced copies of the actual plan sheets, they contain a much larger number of A4 size plan drawings (typically 12 - 15), each of which contains details of just one major aspect of the design. The drawings are clear, concise and easy to read, and in fact contain more information than our standard study plans. In addition, the Study ePlan eBook format contains all the written material contained in a standard study plan, and more besides, and can be printed on a good quality home printer The eBook ePlan format also allows you to print copies of study plan sheets for the purposes of obtaining quotes on your own home computer (A4) instead of having to pay for photocopies at your local print shop.

Mike Waller Yacht Design is a business specializing in boat plans for amateur boat builders. We custom design, and provide stock plans for both mono hulls and multihulls, mainly catamarans. Other designs are sailing skiffs and sharpies, as well as power catamarans. Our designs mainly feature timber construction, in plywood or cedar strip plank composite construction, using the W.E.S.T. system (wood epoxy saturation technique). Our designs are intended mainly as cruising boats, although several have done well in racing.
