13 foot sport kayak to be used on Nantucket Sound and the harbors and backwaters of Cape Cod.
Marshwiggle, a Dave Gentry designed Chuckanut 15 kayak. Marine ply and cedar, with polyester skin.
MINNIE is a modified David Stimson Ocean Pointer launched in July 2014. She was built over a period of 10-years, with many starts and stops due to other commitments. The modifications include stringers and engine beds, a 10.5″ deep keel and a different design for the center console.
Richard Hudak, of Hilo, Hawaii, built this gleaming 16′ canoe from sugi cedar. He cut the tree down and milled the wood himself. He made the gunwale and seats from sprice, and the rails, stems, and breasthooks from koa. He made the paddle from Portuguese cypress, spruce, and sugi cedar.
Rene Burdahl of Innvik, Norway built a sailing canoe (listed here elsewhere) and a 14'9" Lowell Dory Skiff. Rune got the lines for both boats from John Gardner's book Building Classic Small Craft. The skiff uses Norway Pine planking, larch frames, seats, and knees.
MORNING WOOD is a Chester Yawl I built from a Chesapeake Light Craft kit (CLC). She was slow in the making as I acquired the Whitehall kit in 2007. The box followed me through several moves and I started working on her in 2014, a few hours here and there, schedule permitting.
This boat has tight grain douglas fir stringers with local white ash ribs and was a home build.
Skin is 9 ounce dacron, coated with 2 part skinboat polyurethane.
Utilizes 5.2 square m windsurf sail on unstayed carbon windsurf mast.
In March of 2008 I completed construction of a prototype, single frame, light dory of my own design. It was my intention that this boat would be light enough to car top and at the same time capable of handling choppy waters.
This is a Carolina Dory, designed by Jeff Spira (International) Boats. Built with (mostly) materials from the local Lowe’s/Home Depot store. Exterior hull is 1/2″ exterior plywood covered with 6 ounce fiber glass cloth and about 6 coats of MAS Epoxy. Very easy plans to follow...
Classic Gaff Rigged Schooner Wilhelm H. Starck for sale. McKie W. Roth Jr design. Launched 1985.
