Building the Gloucester Light Dory

A photo journal of building the dory in early 2021 and retrofitting it in late 2022. Along with the salmon I caught using it in October 2022.
Target weight for car-topping was 100 lbs / 46 kg. Ended up just over.

Nice job. I wonder if you built the Flint skiff hoping it was a bit more stable for fishing? Both of these projects have my attention, but I'm leaning toward the Flint. Thanks for posting these videos.

The dory is suitable for rough water, especially when loaded. I use it for fishing on the ocean. The Flint takes up to a 4 hp motor and is suitable for calm days on the ocean and handles all the lake weather conditions I've been in.
