By William and John Atkin, SHORE LINER is a flat-bottomed sloop... basically a big sailing skiff. The father/son team of William and John Atkin designed this boat at the request of an experienced sailor who knew what he wanted, accepted the trade-offs of hull speed to the stability and comfort. Sail plan shows three reefs, and it's suggested to use them. Cedar planking for the hull with the bottom cross-planked in white oak. Atkins have included additional info for ply construction. Plans include six sheets, lofting required.
