How many bft of mahogany was required?

that's a hard question. I built it in Berlin (Germany) and in Europe nobody uses bft. However, I know I spent a considerable amount of money on mahogany (it's mahogany throughout except for the white ash strips on the deck) :-)

I built the boat a little longer (12ft instead of 10) to get a little more storage for day trips but if you want some numbers for the standard length, here's a list: http://www.glen-l.com/designs/outboard/squirt-bom.html
