Tom Willess of Oakton, Virginia discovered Chesapeake Light Craft a few years ago and has fallen in love with building their kayaks. He has already built two 12′ Wood Duck Hybrids that are stitch-and-glue constructed from one of CLC’s kits.
Dave Paquet constructed this 23'6" x 7' fantail launch using yellow cedar strip planking on the hull, and red cedar strips for the decks. This Glen-L 'Harbor master' design took Dave four winters to complete. He launched PILGRIM in May 2004.
Iain Oughtred of Findhorn, Scotland, designed this 10' dinghy that Larry Dow built over the winter of 2002. After 200 hours of construction, he launched her in Eliot, Maine, in July 2002. He used 6mm marine plywood with a laminated fir stem and mahogany trim.

I signed on for the October 2013 CLC/WoodenBoat Skerry class in Annapolis, with my husband, Wes, assisting, had a great week building the Skerry hull under the expert guidance of instructor Geoff Kerr.After a five-month hiatus enforced by lack of winter workspace, I was finally able to complete t
This is my first ever build. It’s from a CLC Tandem Annapolis Wherry kit that my wife gave me for Christmas. Long, cold winters in Wisconsin made for an enjoyable way to spend time indoors. The boat was launched last May, when the ice cleared from our local lakes.
I began to build the Annapolis Wherry (named SOLACE) during the WoodenBoat School class at Chesapeake Light Craft during the week beginning April 8th, 2013. Rowed for the first time on November 2, 2013.
Bought 1982, extensive rebuilding. New stem, transom, cabin, cockpit, etc.
Built by Richard Cottreau. Heavily constructed. 60-hp Honda, very low hours.
Would make a great lake boat or for your children, low draft.
Beautiful 15' Crab Skiff Sailboat. Built at the St. Augustine Lighthouse. $5,000.
