Was laying in the hospital today worrying myself shitless untill I saw this vid, it took me back a few yrs thinking of the Chesapeake Bay and I have to say this boat is truly a DREAM. DAMN! WHAT A CREATION...
I believe the vessel was built with this wonderful soundtrack on loop, amazing outcome absolutely see myself destined for Mexico on a permanent basis. 🇲🇽🇮🇪
I don't watch many 16 minute videos but I was riveted, I would imagine the first time your backed that baby into the water was a special one. And the wood boat ride, looks like she is made to bounce like a Cadillac. Thanks for taking us for a ride on the process. It was a job documenting I'm sure.
THAT is impressive........and beautiful. You are probably the only person amongst millions that has the skills to do something like this. Amazing talent. At your level is another guy in this world. Builds the impossible. Everyone check out .on TH-cam........ A handmade mini V12.Your vessel is a stunner...I did a presentation at my college about amazing craftsmanship. I got a 4.0 . You've amazed alot of architects. Thank you
Even a production boat of this caliber would $120K, + look at a 23-25' Contender new...or Yellow-fin, or Fountain...with twin 115 Yamaha 4 strokes..! The engines are 15k each as it is...!
Alan Shipman Thank you sir! :-) No nothing beats the Carolina flair love it to! Also NC and SC itself, wish I could live there great part of the US! Stitch and glue method is great, unfortunately only reserved for smaller boats, or so I've been told.
WOW !! You did a fabulous job. That boat came out beautiful. For one thing if you ever needed to look for a job you shouldn't have any problems. Boat builders should be knocking down your front door to get you to jump aboard their crew and check signed and you fill in the amount. Thanks for sharing. I will be watching this multiple times.
As soon as I pick my jaw off the floor I might be able to make a comment. Wow you are so talented! What a masterpiece of a boat! Many congratulations to you sir!!!
sorry to be off topic but does anyone know of a method to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any tips you can give me!
@Alec Tony I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Man you made building that thing look very do-able, I'm not gonna say you made it look easy but it didn't look impossible, but I'm sure it's anything but easy and you are obviously highly skilled individual!!! I'm very impressed and slightly jealous of your beautiful creation, her lines and that big flared Carolina bow is just awesome, not to mention the build quality and attention to detail are truly impressive and it's throughout the entire build, even in those places that most people will never see like the bilge , the wiring, the console power door just awesome!!! It's just gorgeous and something I hope your extremely proud of!!! Hats off!!
Thank you for sharing the experience of building your boat! You are truly a master craftsman. People like you give me hope for this country. Thanks again and catch lots of fish!
GD man you are one hell of a “Boat Builder” or craftsman for lack of the correct term. This is next level and not like the other guys on TH-cam you knew what you were doing from the start. Wow wow I’m blown away you built an amazing boat my friend be proud of yourself and thank you for sharing. So you wanna build me one too😉
Once I hit the power ball I'm going to build my own boat. But knowing me that boat i build probably sink once it hit the water. Your boat build is every fisherman dream. Very inspiring.
Sr you are a genius. Without a doubt the best project of a boat on TH-cam. This is a work of art and has left me speechless. Only a genius can create something so wonderful, detail by detail. Anyway I would like to know how much time and money it took to create this masterpiece. Congratulations! For me it was a privilege to watch this video.
I truly couldn't be more impressed even if the builder gave me this beautiful work of art The man has skills up the warzoo Love the boat love the building video and love the music good onya Captain great results cheers 🍻 olson
Unbelievable. Builds his on boat, and comes out beautiful. Love the lines of the boat and the flair. I'm sure it was a proud moment when dropped in the water for sea trials. Congrats on completion of this momentous undertaking.
This is really amazing, to think of where you built this, under an overhang, it looks like a patio and this boat looks like it was made by the finest boat boat building company with all their high tech tools. It's amazing what a true craftsman can do. It doesn't matter where or what toys they have at their disposal, it's the knowledge, passion and experience that matters. Hats off to you sir
after this video I will say every boat company out there had contacted you to be the general manager to say the least ,, that was freaking amazing ,, what a masterpiece!!!,, enjoy your creation
Nothing short of amazement. The pure talent and passion is evident. I can only imagine the satisfaction in building this yourself. You must be one proud owner. Enough said. 👏🏼👏🏼👍
Absolute Dream Boat... I have already been very inspired to do the same thing but your vid may have made it more of a reality. Your design and craftsmanship are brilliant. i cant imagine the sense of pride you must have from all the comploments, God has Blessed you Buddy with so much talent.
Credit to you for such craftmanship and attention to detail.....Beautiful design, stunning lines & absolutely Gorgeous! Thanks for posting I really enjoyed watching the process & wish you many a happy days on the water. :-)
peterhage "building boats" Geez... That's a tough problem. Gotta have a distribution channel I guess. If I may ask, I have several Q's; •What was your all in cost on this boat? •Given current retail market price (assuming you sell direct to the user) how many boats would you need to sell a year to make a good living? Your boat is gorgeous. You have a valuable skill.
Amazing!!! That is one hell of a nice boat! Well thought out...lot's of nice details that you'll be glad you did when you did.... This boat would go for $120,000 any day... VERY WELL DONE!!!
Your handsome vessel epitomizes the rewarding experience of timeless true hand-crafted workmanship in the style of Chris Craft's early days, combined with modern technology resulting what most would consider utter perfection. Your ultimate reward as captain of this boat is a dream that very few of us will ever realize. I hope to find here or in another post how she's performed for you and lessons learned (if any) from your experience and a detailed account. You have obviously built many vessels before this, am I right? "Keep the wet side down"
Hi Peter: I did look up the links to the designer/supplier and learned that it came from a kit of pre-cut materials, which makes it a very realistic prospect for anyone with a good level of general experience along with a high IQ to keep them from making too many mistakes. The fact that you bought this as a kit in no way detracts from your superb accomplishment and I hope you will share with us any lessons learned and tips for working with a kit like this.
No I didn't bought a kit I just bought the plans what gives you the right to build one boat, I draw and cut the panels myself, you can see me do it at 0.26 sec, Never the less kits are available indeed, you can use it but drawing and cutting the panels yourself isn't really that hard and it is lots of fun to do.
Oops, sorry I assumed you bought the kit; it really wasn't obvious that you did the cutting; of course that makes your effort and results exponentially more impressive. I guess since you said it was a rookie build I didn't think it would be very easy to do it from plans without a workshop. Were the plans you bought on paper? I guess computerized cut files would be too much to hope for since it would be too easy to share CNC cut plans, which would sabotage their business model.
You are right they sell paper plans by snail mail and digital plans in PDF format by email, but no CNC, if you want CNC files you have to program them yourself. But the paper plans have easy to follow building notes, to be honest drawing and cutting the panels isn't really that hard, the plans at bateau.com are really very user friendly and they have models and building levels for everyone. I just started to build a Bruce Crandall Hydroplane, the Flyer 15 those plans are much harder to follow and building notes are minmal.
Nice job with the boat build. I've been dreaming for years of doing my own boat build but haven't gotten around to it yet..... I liked your soundtrack also
If you know a few of the basics. Building a stitch and glue boat is not difficult at all. The key is having a quality design like this one that is well detailed. Used to work for a custom boat builder. Although this should not be the first boat you have built. This is very attainable you just have to pay attention to detail. And when you think its good enough go 20% more on the effort and you will be very pleased with the results.
how fast this boat can go??? appreciate and admire your work,,, i recently built 8 feet to clean my hands and sharpen the skills and results were awesome, now going to built real one something same as your boat
Gorgeous design and build. Absolutely fantastic looking center console rig! You have definite skills!!!! If you wanted to build some of these I suspect you’d have no trouble finding buyers prepared to spend. The only question would be, do you really want to work as hard as would be required to crank out several each year? It’s a tough business, but good designs in the 24 to 34 size range sell these days like cotton candy at a Saturday night County fair.
Ive watched this video 3 times today, and i have some questions 1can you remember the materials list? 2 did the motor mount plans come with the build or was it bought? 3 any updates on how the boat looks and works now?
Awesome , awesome, awesome , this is what makes America great. Made in the USA. Way to go. Very nice. Most people want things free, you have to earn it. The harder I work ,the luckier I get. Now that's a lucky shot...…...
Dear Mr Hage it's great to see what a master shipwright can do. Gorgeous!!! If you have time please tell why you chose an outboard over an straight inboard? Why did you choose wood over structural foam?

Your a boat building freak! This has to be the most beautiful boat I have EVER seen. Your boat is awesome!
Thank you appreciate it
I wish you luck finding a (custom made) boat that size for that price
Even a production boat of this caliber would $120K, + look at a 23-25' Contender new...or Yellow-fin, or Fountain...with twin 115 Yamaha 4 strokes..! The engines are 15k each as it is...!
LMAO 40,000 that's what the outboard and rigging cost
Carl Stallins bubba the motor and rig cost 40k. This boat is in the 150k area depending on the electronics.
Man you just can't beat the look of the Carolina flare. Great job. She is a beauty. Love the stitch and glue method.
Alan Shipman Thank you sir! :-) No nothing beats the Carolina flair love it to! Also NC and SC itself, wish I could live there great part of the US! Stitch and glue method is great, unfortunately only reserved for smaller boats, or so I've been told.

This video is f*ckin amazing you glorious bastard.
well said
I have always wanted to build my own boat, and thanks to you I am now certain it will never happen. You did an awesome job!

@@peterhage Nice boat bud. Very nicely finished. Is this your Companies plans or are you a hobby builder?

You've got some serious skills, brotha! I've always loved the sheer lines of a Carolina flare.
I am not a big comment-er but that was an amazing job and the finished product is awesome. Great job sir!
+Tacoman82 Thank you very much, appreciate the comment
Very good build. Classic lines from my neck of the woods. There are more than a few Carolina boys that would be proud of a boat like that.
+Rash Guard Thx for your comment I appreciate it

I truly couldn't be more impressed even if the builder gave me this beautiful work of art
The man has skills up the warzoo

MAD SKILLS! Great job! I am customizing a world cat 266, thought my project was too big. I am inspired. Thank you so much for the video.

Now this is a boat. Great quality, fantastic built.. should last a very long time...
Awesome to see a project followed through to the finish.
Nice job!
Unbelievable. I didn't know that there are such talented people around. I bet you saved around 50 thousand bucks or better.
Nothing short of amazement. The pure talent and passion is evident. I can only imagine the satisfaction in building this yourself.
You must be one proud owner. Enough said.
👏🏼👏🏼👍
she's a beaut!! looks like you spared no expense .
Nice work! I remember looking at this design when I was younger and wanting to build it. Excellent!

+jon hayward I agree! To you Mr Hage may you have calm seas and tight lines as you enjoy creation.
Love the flare and the turn down! Beautifully shaped boat.
i just got my plans from bateau for my GS28. i cant wait to get started. i like your idea of using osb for the jig and then stitch and glue around it.
You must build boats for a living...... If not, you should!
Beautiful boat. Great job on the video as well.
Thank you, I wish I could, just not enough market where I live
peterhage "building boats"

•Given current retail market price (assuming you sell direct to the user) how many boats would you need to sell a year to make a good living?
Your boat is gorgeous. You have a valuable skill.
Damn you should make boats for a living. Looks like it came from a factory. Great workmanship/craftsmanship.
You sir are obviously not an amateur
Looks like a solid build and worth a lot
I got to say you are one creative and handy guy! Great job! I wish I had talents like that. Amazing.
Amazing!!! That is one hell of a nice boat! Well thought out...lot's of nice details that you'll be glad you did when you did.... This boat would go for $120,000 any day...
VERY WELL DONE!!!
+QSSCEO thank you
The most amazing thing I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing.

+Daren Barber good luck with your build
Great music with buffet and one damn fine boat build ! Enjoy it , you did a bang up job sir !

Unreal,made me buy a plan.
I've gone for the Fs17 I am hoping for 1/2 of your build quality.
Thank you for sharing .
+Jody Rolands thx and have fun and good luck
Jody Rolands how's it going ?
That is one clean boat. Excellent job!
Effect Halo Thank you
That's something to be proud of!
would be awesome to no how much in materials not counting motors, electronics and t top?
I’m gonna say 40k. That’s a close bet. He did a lot of work himself but the gadgets cost a lot. That’s a very expensive motor nowadays.
Easily 40k
Wow this is masterful what a treat I will be watching it again I am amazed at the workmanship and every detail so well planned!
Nice boat. You did a heck of a job. You should build your own boats produce them. I'd say I would definitely buy one. Way to go
I tip my hat to you!! beautiful work!!.you have every reason to be proud of your skills!!
Beautiful boat and amazing job!! Thanks for sharing
Gorgeous boat!!! You have some mad glassing skills.
Nice job with the boat build. I've been dreaming for years of doing my own boat build but haven't gotten around to it yet..... I liked your soundtrack also
If my boat turns out half as good as that I will be a happy man. A job well done :-)
+Ross Thompson Thank you and good luck with your build.
I cant believe that was built in the back yard

+Zeeshan Zafar thank you sir, she's pushing 55 mph with the new paint under her, good luck with you build,
Beautiful boat , be proud of her she’s the only one in the world !
Gorgeous design and build. Absolutely fantastic looking center console rig! You have definite skills!!!! If you wanted to build some of these I suspect you’d have no trouble finding buyers prepared to spend. The only question would be, do you really want to work as hard as would be required to crank out several each year? It’s a tough business, but good designs in the 24 to 34 size range sell these days like cotton candy at a Saturday night County fair.
Nice Jimmy Buffet, that’s how you know it’s going to be a good video!!! 👍👍
Ive watched this video 3 times today, and i have some questions
1can you remember the materials list?
2 did the motor mount plans come with the build or was it bought?
3 any updates on how the boat looks and works now?
Wow just pain wow That sir is an amazing job. you are a true craftsmen thank you for sharing your work. Inspiring....
+Danny Stripling Thx for your comment I appreciate it
BEAUTIFUL!!! AWESOME job! I build boats too, though nothing as grand as that!
Aquaticredneck how much would you charge to build a 28ft center console?
Awesome boat , nice design.
One of my dreams and did not have the chance to do. Great job should be very proud. congrats.
+Mike Anelundi thx
beautiful, A CREDIT TO YOU and your skills.
Awesome , awesome, awesome , this is what makes America great. Made in the USA. Way to go. Very nice. Most people want things free, you have to earn it. The harder I work ,the luckier I get. Now that's a lucky shot...…...
No Sir not made in the USA, made in Curacao Dutch Caribbean
Dear Mr Hage it's great to see what a master shipwright can do. Gorgeous!!!
If you have time please tell why you chose an outboard over an straight inboard? Why did you choose wood over structural foam?
Who in the h*ll are the three goons who could dislike this?! Very impressive!!
+Nun Ya I don't know, Thx for your comment I appreciate it
5 star video! AWESOME BOAT BUILD!
Unbelievable workmanship!!!!! I wish i had your skills. Amazing boat. I wonder how long it took you.
Thank you for the idea and the basic concept of boat building,,,I'll be on the water soon,,,thanks
How do I buy one? Beautiful and I would love to learn how to this. You are truly talented. WOW!
+Shawn Kramer Thank you sir, you can buy the plans @ bateau.com/ for help and support you can visit forums.bateau2.com/
incredible...beautiful boat and craftsmanship
Hi Peter. You made it like a pro. Can you share the project? I´m not a boat builder, but the idea of building my own boat is always present.
