- Finally coming to the point where i finish off some punch list items in the bilge like epoxy painting and thread locker application. I also get the next layer in the starboard carlin lamination.
This is this is the story of a complete boat owning and boat building novice and his family, constructing a 41’ full displacement trawler yacht in the backyard of their upstate New York home. While I consider myself a fairly advanced amateur woodworker and DIY guy, I’ve never owned a boat before and certainly have never built one either.
The naval architect, George Buehler, designed this boat, from his Diesel Duck line, with the home builder in mind. This design has been licensed for professional builders in China and Turkey, but George’s goal was always to make the large, blue water cruising boat within the reach of the average person.
His commitment to a design that was attainable for the average handy person, resulted in his first book, Buehlers Backyard Boat Building, detailing the process. His designs often include building materials and fasteners available at the big box home improvement stores.
George believed that a robust, comfortable and safe cruising boat could be built with less than ideal, traditional materials. While he acknowledge that less than ideal materials may limit the vessels longevity and resale value, his design would get people safely out on the water while the other guy remained landlocked saving for a design he would never be able to afford to build.
Many traditionalist scoff at his mostly hard chined designs and deviation from traditional methods and materials. However his maverick approach has made the dream of crossing oceans in a home built boat a reality for many around the world. No matter what the “experts” say, his designs have been proven over and over with literally hundreds of examples cruising the worlds oceans today.
Our goal is to be next!

I admire your tenacity! Loved the "light bulb" moment - we can all recognize ourselves in it! Carry on, smartly!
Looking good Scott. Thank you for the update. You're doing a fantastic job. Take care, stay well and have fun even when it hurts to laugh.
ahhaajjaja.. the moment when he realizes he's paintin the wrong side.. priceless!!! :D
althought.. I absolutely admire your work Scott!!..
The best part is having intermate knowledge of every part of this boat!
only one blow of the whistle!?!?
you have impressive self control!
Wish I could say I had never oh so carefully spread glue all over the wrong surface! Thanks for being honest about it Scott.
Almost forgot to mention a new boat building tool now used by a lot of people ... the leaf blower. What a time saver!
I think painting the bilge is one of those jobs that significantly marks progress with the build. You can walk above it knowing all is right below your feet.
Drilling and bolting between the tanks gives you a good idea of how it must feel being a gynecologist, working by touch .....
UA-cam had not showed me your video's since the last I saw 4 months ago. I'm glad to see you are still going strong on the project.
1st! Keep up the great work. 👍
Awesome video
Making awesome progress!! Things are coming together nicely!
It just keeps getting better and better. Keep up the great work Scott.
Good video!
Excellent work and another great video. Well done Sgt.
Oh man, I thought you gave up your project.
Glad you're back.
Just a touch late with that whistle at 15:19, Scott. LOL! Such a relatable moment.
glad to see you back, we thought you had left the building.
G'day Scott,,
Thanks for another great episode. Im really enjoying this project, its a different kind of build type to most of the others on YT, so it has that special fascination and is unique. But perhaps the big drawcard are the carpentry skills you bring to the Sea Dreamer project .
It sure makes for great viewing Scott, thanks for sharing it with the faithful followers.
Respect
from
Down Under
Really enjoy following your progress. Great workmanship!
Thanks for the vids
It's been too long time since I've followed up on your build. Wow the boat is looking great you really are a one man shipyard. Nice work as always
Love the shoulder drop lol been there many times!
Another great vid
Awesome Boat it was so big
Ziet er goed uit top!!!
Curious Question, when drilling holes to bolt down or fasten items. Do you epoxy the hole and re-drill hole❓ My experience is many boats form rot and structural damage over time from unprotected surface areas....this includes surface area of the inner hole. I'm not trolling you but ONLY sharing information on a common issue I'm always ripping out old panels and decks. It's always the bedding and unprotected hole inner surfaces. I prefer 2 ways of fixing this issue. 1 Way is over drill hole then use thickened epoxy (structural way). 2nd way is penetrating epoxy in hole with a small sponge applicator doing 2 coats and re-drill hole for finish (the penetration epoxy hardens area for long term water tight exposure). I hope this gives you insight to many boats around 5 and 10 years old costly repairs (cored fiberglass, wood, metal all have not received any coating inside drilled holes....rotted and cost big time).
I like the winch:)
The boat is really taking shape. Was wondering when you were going to start on the fittings. Love the little bandits at the end.
Paint's looking good. Looked like that bolt was hard to reach though. 🤔
Scott, I swear I'm laughing with you. I'm actually quite impressed how long you held that in too. I would have let it, and a few if it's friends, fly much quicker.
The job is coming along very nicely and you are proceeding apace. Just one comment on the use of the dowel as a draw bar on the tenon against the bulkhead, it might have been better (sorry) to cut a slot through the tenon and then used opposing wedges knocked through and bearing on the bulkhead. This would have given more surface area to spread the load, rather than the point loading of the dowel.😀👍⛵️
I'm curious about how the soak in is going to go. Good job, very interesting.
Scott - this is looking great - but I still do worry about the exposed end grain in those ply gussets - despite being painted. If they get wet regularly there could be a world of pain. And just because they are up near the chine line does not mean they cannot get wet at some stage - worth consideration going forward
Life is messy sometimes. Stay healthy.
Not quite Arabella or Tally Ho quality. But credit to him for all the practicality.
Not a good comparison. Take the same people from those other boats and have them build this one, you will get the same level of quality. Completely different construction and mission.
I watch this and Tally Ho. Entirely different kettles of fish. This is a much more accessible type of project for the average person who is inclined to build themselves a boat. That's what I appreciate about it. I could see myself doing a project like this. Not so much for the others.
I'm really bad about mixing up orientation of pieces for a project. So my solution is masking tape with notes. Not the blue tape cheap tan masking tape. You can see the marker better.
I’m thinking you realized just before saying, “Golly!”
Scott I live in Connecticut ,let me know if I can visit you to help
Stainless ratchets or you will never get them undone when they rust
I don't know why it is , when ever we see someone else make a mistake we laugh. yet at the same time we all know its sucks as well. And slows down the project, nevertheless it how the ball rolls at times. We all do it. Its cool to see how the racoons have warmed up to ya.
Those ratchet straps you put on the tanks once salt water gets them you can kiss them goodbye
Not sure why you are not painting where deck boards cross beams?
I don’t want any paint where I will eventually glue the plywood to to sole beams.
так и ослепнуть недолго от сияющей красоты
А ведь ты лекарь тут неспроста тусишь. Лодочку свою замутить решил?
@@user-zz6ov3nj6l Да хоть бы и так. У тебя есть какие-нить предложения?! Или так, чё-нить бзднуть:-)))
@@great473 передумал бы ты насчет лодки. Таких как ты море плохо воспринимает. Не любит оно фекалии.
ya.... we've all had those 'FUCK' moments. the trick is how do we recover
A single "fuck" and then back to it is more discipline than I am capable of most times.
Link to the raccoon videos please.
I have made those bone headed mistakes. Frustrating.
I here a Utica accent in your speech. Is that right? Just wondering...
Relatively close, Rochester! We are a Long A’s and nasally people
Shame on you for trying to crowd A2A with your cute creatures - there are enough wooden boat/animal lovers to go around! 🤣
