Boats - Page 3

accidentally caught boat fever again. I've been looking at plans for small sailing dinghies. First, it began with plywood tack and tape boats then quickly escalated to clinker/lapstrake planked skiffs and sailing dories.

Leading me down the rabbit hole to the Mystic Seaport Wooden Boat show in June/July,

Mystic is fantastic. When you're done can you sell it for big bucks?

I looked out the window at my sad wooden kayak in the back yard today and momentarily fantasized about ordering some epoxy and sanding it down when the weather gets warmer.

Griff · 01-17-2017, 06:10 AM

do it

Gravdigr · 01-17-2017, 12:21 PM

Or, put some stamps on it and send to Kentucky. I don't boat much, but, I would put your kayak on top of GC1 and carry it everywhere I went.

Come to think of it, GC1 could prolly use a coat of epoxy.

This reminds me..

I owe footfootfoot, glatt, and my other maker brothers a boat thread.

Yeah, it's only been a DECADE.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-17-2017, 02:22 PM

We have a boat thread, do you mean a build thread?

BigV · 01-25-2017, 09:32 PM

**SIGH**

HE MEANS THE THREAD

ETA:

Pretty good memory, eh?

oh, yeah, yours too.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-25-2017, 11:01 PM

Don't sigh at me.

If you want to post pictures of a watercraft we have threads for boats and for ships.

If you want to reminisce about things you accomplish before the great decline, then you'll have to find it in the Cellar attic. Sexobon is great at digging up that stuff.

If someone is inspired by the old farts reminiscing about shit they once did, then a build thread like glatt's bandsaw build thread would be most welcome.

I was just giving you good natured grief V.

It's all good.

Griff · 01-26-2017, 06:51 AM

Somebody needs to step up and start the next bigasscellarbuild!

classicman · 01-26-2017, 09:55 AM

Do we have a build a wall thread?
Why hasn't Jim taken a Trump handle and started posting with it?
What the hell is wrong with you guys? Old farts!
We young-in's have expectations, ya know.

Here is the boat that has captured my attention, I may build a 1:6 model of it this summer. It's 12' 4-1/2" between perps.

And a sailing club in WA that is currently building one - with pictures!

Just feed that drawing into your buddy's CNC machine and say embiggen.

C'mon Foots, you shown repeatedly you've got the skills, it's just a matter of time and money, and you can show those west coasters how to do it right.
