Launchings

A CLC Northeaster Dory. As a kit boat, there are many like it, but the build of this one is special. It was built almost completely during my toddler’s naps over the course of 18 months. And I built it almost completely solo.

Paul Clausius build DRIFTER using the book, Building the Weekend Skiff, by Richard Butz and John Montaigne. He modified it a bit from the plans in the book. Paul made the fir plywood sides slightly thicher to give the boat additional strength for the rough waters of Geneva Lake, WI.

We launched our Penobscot 14 after Just under two years build time. All plywood is Hoop Pine. The stem, stringers, transom, and thwarts are all Tasmanian Blackwood, with the rest a mix of other Australian hardwoods.

Launched in Canberra and it rows like a dream.

I started this boat by purchasing Canoecraft by Ted Moores. I ordered the book in the mid 90’s from the Woodenboat Store as a Naval Aviator stationed in Maine. Through many duty station changes I wore out the book.

Looking for a boat which I might build to incorporate 3 fixed seat rowing stations, I found the Chamberlain Gunning Dory in “Gardner’s Small Boats.” By good fortune I mentioned this to a physician friend only to learn that he had inherited a partially built Gunning Dory from another physician who

I wanted to share with you a couple photographs of my Night Heron kayak (LOA 18′, beam of 20″), designed by Nick Shade of Guillemot Kayaks . The boat took nearly two years of weekends and evenings to complete, with work proceeding at a glacial pace during some periods.

Launched June 26th 2017. Bear Mountain Endeavour 17′ at the Parc Nautique de Cap-Rouge in Québec.Built during the winter. 350 hrs. Cedar, pine, ash and a little walnut strip.

Roger McKay built this sprit-rigged, beach cruiser designed by Jordan Wood Boats of South Beach, Oregon. The Footloose design is 15'2" long with a 56" beam. Roger writes that the boat sails and motors well. He uses THE ARC on the Columbia River and in the lakes and bays near his home.

Mike Hughes had hoped to build a Columbia dinghy for himself but, "as life, family, and business crowded in I never got past the stage of milling and seasoning the keel, and laying in the New Zealand kauri." Some years late, Mark Jack contacted Mike about building a Columbia for him.
