Building a B&B Yacht Designs EC22



I want to chronicle the building of my boat. An EC 22 designed by Graham Byrnes. This is a 22 foot long sail boat constructed of marine plywood covered with epoxy and fiberglass.

I have been enchanted by this design ever since watching its development two years ago. I have tried to steer myself in the direction of more sensible designs, boats that would be easier to build and perhaps a bit more forgiving to sail. The Belhaven or the Micro or there are dozens of others. I always come back to the EC22.
