Backyard Boat Builders The first boat that we built was in 1992. It was the Glen-l Gypsy. We look back at the adventures that we had with that boat with great fondness. So, after all these years, we decided to build a second one. This video is part one of that build. Visit us at www.backyardboatbuilders.com
New Life for a Sea Ray “Weekender”

Here we give new life to a Sea Ray “Weekender” We purchased this Sea Ray at auction. The boat was sound but the engine didn’t run and it was dirty. Things like bilge pumps needed attention along with many small things. The boat turned out very nice. The Ray handled very nice on the water. Great Boat!

Glen-L Gypsy 20ft houseboat - The Fair Havens
Переглядів 22 тис.4 роки тому
The Fair Havens was built from the Glen-L plans and was our first boat build. She was a family project and I cannot say enough about what a great boat the Gypsy turned out to be. We lost the original pictures in a hurricane, so some of the pictures are not as clear as we would like. In this video, we show the construction and first cruise from Coca Beach Florida to St. Augustine. Please visit u...

    I believe I've seen y'all build 2 houseboats.. 1. Glen-L Gypsy and 2. a Dianne's Rose. Is that correct, and if so, which build did you prefer and more importantly, which final product/boat did/do you prefer and why? Appreciate your videos. Very informative and you do such great work. Fun to watch. Thanks!

    Was reassuring to what I've been wanting to build. But design my own plans for a barge style fishing weekend warrior camping boat. I was so worried about draft. Seeing yours would be about my size and weight I know the draft should only be about 8in as calculated and I feel better now as yours didn't hardly draft any either! Start modeling my plans this weekend!!! Gave me a good idea how to do a door. As I wanted the cabin as low as possible. Decks at each end up. Forgot about those style hatch doors! Double 5ft decks at each end. Cabin in middle. Maybe a small deck on top with collapsible railing. Reservoir queen. 😊 nice build!

    Nice job. It was refreshing to see a proper build. A young woman named Barbie builds Birbie is building one and her skills are cringe worthy. Her latest build video shows the hull upside down and she's getting ready to apply epoxy. She goes underneath with a roll of painter's tape to cover a gaping gap where two surfaces don't meet so she can fill the gap with epoxy. Warning: If you watch the video, it could induce nightmares for a real builder.lol

    Here recently my aging mother had put together some items she’s held onto over the years and inside the crate was the original paperwork to when her and my father had purchased ours when I was a kid. I had great memories camping on it but never could remember the name of it and only bits and pieces of exactly what it had looked like. Your video really was a trip down memory lane that I truly enjoyed so much so after watching it and now knowing what to look for I’m going to start to look for my own new little project boat. Yukon Deltas slogan was “ The Travel Trailer That’s a Boat” you have definitely went beyond that to a one of a kind Vessel. Thank you for the memories.
