Surf Board and Paddle Board Plans

Here are a few plans for paddle and surf boards. Unlike many wooden boats, there is a relatively short tradition of board designs in the West. There is a long history of surfing in places such as Hawaii.

SUP or Standup paddleboard are great fun and can be made very successfully. Most designers who offer surfboards also offer Standup paddleboards and body board designs.
