Chesapeake Light Craft: Wooden Boat Kits

 
Jim

Jim I just finished my Passagemaker on Saturday and launched it on probably the last "nice" weekend we will have in Fort Atkinson, WI before winter. Kudos to CLC as my troubles were few. It was a great kit that I started building in mid March.

Not a mistake on this boat ;) Purchased as a take apart PM, I lost my nerve when it came to the actual cutting of the boat. Insomuch as this IS the mother ship, I won't need to store it on my yaht!
One thing that I learned, there is no such thing as a perfect boat. It did turn out pretty well though.

That 17' Northeaster Dory is the boat I have picked to build after our Catalina-30 sells. The Dory has 3 rowing positions and is also a sailboat with a gaff sail rig...only weighs 96 pounds and holds hundreds of pounds of payload
