MyBoatPlans review
A $47 digital collection of 518 named boat plans across sailboats, dinghies and more, with over 40 how-to videos, from a named builder with a listed US address and a 60-day refund.
Worth it
This is a case where the page backs up what it charges for: the plans are named individually rather than described only in general terms, the video and CAD-tool inclusions are specific, and the $47 price on the form matches what the sales page describes as the complete package. The seller is named with a US mailing address, which is more transparency than most digital guides in this category offer, and the 60-day guarantee gives a real window to ask for a refund. The main caveat is that value depends on actually wanting to build one of these particular boats, since a beginner cannot judge plan quality without buying first, but on offer clarity and vendor transparency this holds up well.

MyBoatPlans at a glance
MyBoatPlans is a digital package of boat building plans presented by Martin Reid, described on the page as a builder with 31 years of experience. The sales page names dozens of specific boat designs by title, for example the 12-foot sailboat "Crescent" and the 24-foot "Gypsy," grouped into categories such as sailboats, and states the collection totals 518 plans covering multiple building methods like plank on frame and stitch and glue. The package includes over 40 how-to videos, detailed specifications, exploded-view diagrams and CAD design tools according to the page. The order form charges $47.00 once for a US address or EUR 49.09 including VAT for a DE address, matching the complete package the page describes, with a 60-day satisfaction guarantee. The about page names Martin Reid and gives a mailing address in Hudson, Wisconsin, and a dedicated contact page repeats that address for support requests.
