Safety, capacity and versatility are the hallmarks of the HEADWATER 24. With a beam of 8 ft., and a hull weight of under one thousand pounds, she is easy to tow and launch, and economical to power. Her broad, flat, dory bottom allows her to be beached, as well as simplifying construction.

Detailed in the plans are three distinct floor configurations, including an easy-to-build 1" thick single floor, a 3" thick foam-filled double "Shellfish" floor; and a full self-bailing deck! Power options include transom and well mounted outboards, as well as I/O's  of moderate horsepower. The PREDATOR pilothouse can be fitted to the HEADWATER 24: These drawings are available with the HEADWATER 24 plans on request at no additional cost, as are drawings for a lobster-style cruising house and a shallow V-bottomed version of the hull.
