Now they can build their own "compact." the current rage in transportation. It's not a car, of course, but a real sailboat only flve feet long, requiring just two sheets of GPX Marine Green Pl5rwood and a weekend of building fun in the home workshop.

Free detailed working plans are available, and the necessary plywood is stocked at leading retail lumber dealers nationwide.

A real sailing craft, not a toy, it has been desigrred specifically to teach youngsters how to sail and to learn water safety. It has become the darling at yacht clubs and even backyard swimming pools. Those who have built the seaworthy little boat, with its detachable five-foot mast, also describe it as an ideal "trial run" for the man who is thinking of building his first familysize boat.

The cute juvenile sailer has a full 32-inch beam and a 15-inch depth, weighs only 40 pounds and is professionally desigrted to qualify it as an ofrcial member of the fleet. The detachable mast, made of two leftover strips from the two GPX plywood panels required for the boat, allows it to be either a sailer or a paddle boat. It is designed to take rough usage, just like jts larger plywood cousins.

Detailed plans are available free by writing Dept- 10-60-12, Georgla-Paclfic Corp., Equltable Bulldlng, Portland 4, Oregon.

They include 19 how-to pictures in addition to cutting and assembly drawings, fln- ishing ideas, information on how to choose the right pl5rwood, and a complete materials list. There is even a detail drawing for sawing the two paddles from strips of leftover plylvood.
