    I've seen plenty of lofting videos on UA-cam, this is easily the most detailed & clearly explained of the lot and I've never even been on boats.

    I'll definitely need to watch this a few times!!

    Thanks for making this video Ian. Having taught lofting to boatbuilders at tech for over 30 years here in New Zealand, what you have explained here, using the correct terms, is good to see. Very similar method in the sequence of laying down the lines. Good also to see the use of tick sticks and the lofting in of the build members. Thanks from Christopher.

    Looks like I'll be watching these videos repeatedly as I put lofting into action for the first time. Saving to my own list for ease of finding again. Thanks for much more detailed info than I have found elsewhere. Between the other videos I have found and your details, I think I just may be able to figure it out. I'll also be looming to get a copy of your book or multiple books before I start building my first boat.

      Keep us informed, we love to see boats coming together.

    In addition to learning the language of this process, and the new componentry of the actual workings of it (tick strip, buttocks line, etc etc) you have a well seasoned builder explaining in detail how its done at a fair pace... trying to digest all this incredible information at the pace of the video is not expectable... A newbie such as myself needs to take the time to recognize the vocabulary as it relates to the process, to understand the importance of each step, and each mark, and each intersection of parts (to become real parts soon enough). My word, ---and I thought it would be relatively simple after having built a few plywood boats... Mastering this process will literally take the rest of my days. This is a wealthy series of videos. I may have to buy the book, and learn the way people actually truly learn... if they really want to learn.

    LOL… I am completely lost trying to follow this process…. I guess I would need to buy a kit to build a small boat. I’m not sure I understand what you are getting when you buy boat plans?

      As I say in the video, you will need to refer to a textbook to loft, this just shows the techniques. Most small boat plans come with full-size patterns which are based on someone else’s lofting, so you only need to loft if there are no patterns.

      @@SmithysBoatshed okay thanks I watched it a few more time and am starting to get it. But you have to start with some type of plan even if it is just the views right? I’m pretty good at math and geometry so I know I could pick this up. I find it fascinating to see how they could cut out the pieces based on these diagrams. But yes, I’m going to try and build a Dory from full size plans from clcboats.
