I have a boat that I believe is a copy of a Broadbill and am wanting to do some repairs to it. It is missing the cockpit coaming. If possible I'd like to be able to look over a Broadbill.
Any Arthur Armstrong Broadbills near piedmont of NC?

Hi David,
I recently purchased an AA Broadbill. It is a homebuilt and I have a thread on the forum that has turned into a thread on repairs (Advice on sneakbox - AA Broadbill or MLB Wigeon). If you have a home built you might find a picture on the thread that would give you an idea. My boat is upside down now an not easy to get a picture now. You can get the plans at Clark Craft (https://www.clarkcraft.com/cgi-loca...2352&cart_id=0ff2cc199779de142e98bc7276142b28)

Scott,
What I have is what I believe may have been a fiberglass copy made off a Broadbill. I don't know if it was made off a fiberglass boat or a wood boat from the Clark Craft plans. Anyway someone before me cut the coaming off and did a transom replacement. So I am looking for a Broadbill that I can compare to and maybe make a couple of patterns off of to repair some of the previous hack jobs. Buying the plans would be a last resort and I may end up doing that. Good luck with your repairs!

Arthur Armstrong manufactured the fiberglass version for years.

Eric,
I am aware but this isn't an actual Arthur Armstrong built boat. It's so similar that I think it might be a copy.
I found some pictures of your boat from older posts. It may very well be a copy. I think you can glass 1" thick coaming onto the existing deck.

Yep that's it. I got stalled on the project. I'd like to get it functioning. It's a cool little boat.

The one I have just has a raised coming lip around the cockpit.
