Introduction

"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea"
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

With that in mind one may think that anybody with a passion for the sea can build an ocean going yacht. But be warned! It is not something that can be taken lightly. It takes time and dedication.This project was started in 2004 with the purchase of plans for the Didi 34. Although almost finished, it is still ongoing.

Companionway ladder

The boat plans do not include a plan for the construction of the companionway ladder. Since the dimensions for each boat will be different, I had to design my own using ladder design guidelines such as the optimum step depth, distances apart and the angle of the ladder. Using the program "Sketchup" I came up with the following.

My plan with dimensions
