Attached are some picture of our completed (finally) Peeler Skiff that my daughter and I started at GLBBS in 2013. First launch, Suttons Bay, Michigan.
Off Center Harbor Skiff. White pine on white oak frames.
Mike and Billee Gearheard sail the 9'6" Nutshell Pram they built on Puget Sound and Matz Matz Bay in Washington State. They named this Joel White design CHOTARA 1. Launched on March 30, 2002, she is of glued lapstrake construction, and carries a lug mainsail.
Steve Batiste found the plans for this 'Corky' design on the website http://hometown.aol.com/polytarp/corky.htm . The article includes no citation to the builder or the designer.
Relaunched after nearly 30 years. The boat has been refinished, the engine has been thoroughly serviced and a fuel pump added. What a sweet little boat, they just don't build them like this anymore. The hull is molded birch and as sound as new.

JUBY is a Shellback Dinghy made at WoodenBoat School and finished at home in North Carolina. It has won awards at the N.C Wooden Boat Show and the Cape Fear C.C Wooden Boat Shows. The Shellback can be sailed, rowed or sculled. It also makes for an excellent tender.
Seven-year-old Jamie Lowrey had the idea of building this boat from a single sheet of spare plywood. He and his father made scale models from shirt cardboard and built a full-size model from cardboard boxes in the living room of their Manhattan apartment.
Robert Fraser used the designs of older C-4s to create this class boat. A C-4 class boat for Canada cannot be more than 20' long (6.1 meters), must have a minimum beam of 2'6" (76 cm), and weigh at least 68.34 pounds (31kg).
Refastened 2003 by Richard Stanley.
