Plystream

Designed by Benjy

Not a boat: the Plystream is a two-berth caravan from Woodenwidget, 3 m long and 1.7 m wide, built on a small unbraked trailer of 500 kg gross capacity. It weighs about 300 kg unladen with a 200 kg payload, and the curved shape is there to cut drag. Inside are 185 cm of headroom, two settee berths that convert to a wide double, a table, a small galley and rear loading for long items such as a dinghy or bicycles.

The insulation forms part of the structure and the body is built directly on the trailer. The designer calls it a bit harder than his other designs, though still a basic-tools job. No build time is given. Any builds logged here appear below.
