Thank you for the third video in this series. I like the trick of using the awl to help align the holes for setting the screws. Nice job, especially being alone in the shop. Have a great weekend.
I wanna know this too I’m wondering if you can get away with thinner plywood and make up for it with more fiberglass and supports. But why mess with something that works
Definitely the first time ive ever seen a boat built with the chines attached to the side planking, before the planking to the stem n attached aft, to the transom. You could get a un-semitrical boat easier.
@@worldboatskiff8709 it was hard to tell but it looked like the chine wasn't tight to the transom. I'm not saying this method isn't a good way of doing things. But if one side of plywood or any wood is stronger then the other side, it will definitely throw things off. I see you had several "form stations" in play. So if that is ur guide. It's all upto that. I've either been lucky or unlucky in the past 46years. I've probably built close to 30 bushel skiffs. We only use 1 floating station. We get a side plank that is dryer then another on the opposite side. It's a throw you off moment
When you first fit the chine I noticed you didn’t put glue, and I thought I would have put glue. I wonder why he didn’t put glue, and I thought about it and realized that gluing the chine to the side would make it VERY stiff and would probably crack or put stress into the material when the side of the boat was bent to the frames. And then you mentioned that you had a notion about the difficulty with bending the work. To me it’s pretty obvious that you are correct, and I came to the same conclusion before you mentioned it in the video ! Really nice attention to detail , fine work. Being a Newfoundlander power dories are the pickup trucks of the water, I’ve often thought about having a nice large one for up here on the mainland. They are becoming more popular today here in Eastern Ontario. I would much rather have once of these than a fibreglass one. I use a large aluminum boat, with wood interior for convenience. I would much prefer one of your boats, if I didn’t have to trailer much. Beautiful boat.

I wouldn't have thought that you could bend the sides with the chines pre-attached. How thick are the plywood sides?

The sides are made out of 3/8 or 9 mm plywood

Not if the sides are the same length.

Beautiful boat.

Love your videos
👍
The boat looks great!!! but please protect that beautiful vinyl collection. Lol I love my records.
Is there a possibility of being able to make a flats boat out of this. Aka a flat deck on top of the funnels or would it be too tall out of the water
I think it would make a great flats boat instead of having the sides 24 inches change them to 12 or 16 inches
Good afternoon. Tell me, what material is this gray block made of? Дякую!!
Do you mean the PVC poly vinyl chloride decking boards, common material in the USA rot resistant, but expensive.
Yes, I think it’s PVC)) Thank you very much))
How do i get a hold of these beautiful boat templates??

Can this type of boat handle Caribbean seas?
Seaworthy, but you would have to go slow in rough seas
Ok cool
nice
Thanks
Nowhere near enough glue being used. Way more glue and then remove all screws after curing, fill the holes with more glue and dowels.
How many sheets of plywood
7 sheets

Get a battery caulk gun and you’ll never look back!
I’ve switched to the larger double cartridge guns, so I need a battery one that fits those
