13′ Doug Hylan Beach Pea. Glued lap, okoume ply planking, black locust sheerstrake, stems and keel. Eastern white cedar thwarts and floorboards.
Doug Robertson named this canoe BOING for the noise it will make if all the strips come apart. It is a modified Bear Mountain Rob Roy Canoe. The 13' design was shortened to 11' 6". It weighs 26 pounds. Doug used cedar bead and cove strips covered on the outside with 5 oz fiberglass.
Wayne Brown spent two years building this 12′6″ catboat designed by William Garden. DON GATO is a strip-planked Tom Cat design launched at Ghost Lake, Wisconsin last July. Wayne says she sails nicely with three people aboard, trails beautifully, and takes about an hour to rig and unrig.
A late 1950’s International Flying Dutchman Class sailboat. The Mahogany hull was cold-moulded in Holland and imported by Paul Rimoldi of Miami Florida. Mr Rimoldi made everything else, including many pieces of hardware.
This dory style sailboat was built in a small wood shop in my yard. It took ten months to build and would never have happened had it not been for the folks at Chesapeake Light Craft and their assistance.
I build this boat in 2014.
I spend over six months for this job.
She is a -Pasara- Launch.
The hull is made of three layers of spruce-3 mm thick.
Also the west system.
For the keel and the frames I used oak.
The rest in mahogany and teak.
A scaled version of the Guepard. The hull shape is original but the rigging is from Selway Fisher “Surf8”.
Using lines taken from an 1880s Adirondack Canoe at the Antique Boat Museum, volunteers Chuck Cripe and Seb Borrello built little SUSAN NIPPER, under direction from curator John Summers, as an ongoing live demonstration for museum visitors. Thought she is under 8' long, she will hold an adult.
My son and I built this CLC stitch and glue Eastport Pram to serve as our dinghy for our Passport sailboat. We wanted something that was light weight, easy to use, and not a typical inflatable.
Bought 1982, extensive rebuilding. New stem, transom, cabin, cockpit, etc.
Offered here is a beautiful 1958 Ohlson 35' sailboat that's ready for a new home.
All hardware original, complete set Harken blocks. Mast, boom cuddy bars and tent.
