Note: DIY Packraft is no longer selling packraft plans.

In order to reproduce my plans, I looked into various printing options and quickly discovered I would lose money if I stuck to my goal of keeping the price to $20 USD per set. The problem is the size – they’re larger than a 4 x 8 foot sheet of plywood – so it was either raise the price or come up with a workaround. I’m sure you’ll be pleased to hear that instead of raising the price, I created a giant stencil so I can trace out each set of plans myself, removing the print shop from the equation altogether. Sure it’ll take a few minutes to make each set, but so would driving to the print shop.

One thing I can’t do is hand deliver the plans to you personally, so for now I’ll be using regular letter post with its attendant costs.

I’m setting up a Shop page with a secure PayPal checkout in case you’d like to order a set. If you don’t trust PayPal, send me a message and we’ll work out something else.

Hi, do you still have the plans for the earliest V1 and V2 and if so what the price are? On the other hand as I see you don’t sell anymore the V1 as it was with all valves,zip etc…why?
Thank’s
Deyan

    Hi Deyan, each new version is improved compared to the older ones, so I do not sell the older inferior ones.

      Thank’s for the fast response. So I should understand that won’t be anymore the ultra light version 2 that is mentioned as out of stock? And as a newbie in this world for mi isn’t not so important to have the latest one. Anyway thank’s again.
      Deyan.

        That’s correct. There will be a new ultralight version when the new ultralight fabric arrives later this summer.

I was wondering what the big differences between the v2 and v3 patterns are? Something about being easier to assemble (double coated floor material aside)? Something about the floor pan extending further up the stern of the boat? Is there a major difference in cross sections and guide curves of the boat?

    Hi Patrick – the biggest difference is that patterns are not available for the V3, only kits. Compared to the V2, the V3 is just a design update for better balance and tracking, fewer wrinkles, better bottom protection (the floor fabric extends farther up the sides and back). The cross section looks slightly different due to the different floor material and the order of putting things together is changed to make it easier. Cheers!

Hi, I’m very interested in your plans!
I’m thinking about building a slightly longer cockpit. Is it hard for me to customize the plans to make the cockpit maybe 10cm longer?

    Matt (Admin) · May 27, 2016 at 9:08 am

    Thanks for your interest in the plans! I am designing a packraft with a longer cockpit right now, and plans will be available soon. I do not recommend trying to lengthen the original plans yourself because that would change the geometry of the tubes and make the tube fabric wrinkle at the corners. I will contact you directly when the larger plans are available.
