Clark Mills -- Optimist designer

This web page is dedicated to building an Optimist plywood pram to the specifications of the original Optimist Pram designed in 1947. We are using a set of plans redrawn by CABBS - Cleveland Amateur Boat Builders and available for $24.00. These wonderful little boats will never measure to the strict International Optimist Design. Our kids will never know the difference...Contact us at: kyle1962(at)me.com Just replace the (at) with @
