  • Build your own Teardrop Camper! From the company that has shipped 30,000 boat kits comes an elegant, compact, and easy-to-build camper light enough to tow behind a Mini Cooper. The camper in the video already has 15,000 miles on it. Much more here: www.clcboats.co...

    A video like this for all your kits would be awesome. A great way to sell kits and a great way for viewers to get a sense of the final product vs time lapse build videos which don’t really show features or it in use. Narration was awesome.

    We got a good look at one of these that was on its maiden voyage. It was built by an east coast couple in their mid-70's, beautiful workmanship, they couldn't have been more pleased with it. We were at Canyon Lands during a spring snow storm and they were warm and cozy.

    I think that is one of the most beautiful campers ever. It would be neat to tow it behind my Smart Fortwo.

    I love everything about this teardrop. I wish I could purchase one completely finished & ready to camp.

      I think they have a class where one builds it at their factory with them helping?

    Seen two of these at a tiny house show in Atlanta. The video does not do them justice, so nice they stood out above everything at the show.

    May i say that this is not a teardrop camper but a piece of art ,it need's to have its own place in an art gallery. Beautiful craftsmanship , still craftsman out there that can do beautiful woodwork . U can build gondolas and ship them to Italy

    As a long time fan of tiny homes and even smaller campers like the Scamp, I must say that your teardrop camper is the most beautiful one I've seen yet. While I don't want to build my own anything, I think it's a fantastic idea and you all have done a fabulous job. :-)

    My boyfriend and I are planning on cross country-ing with a teardrop trailer for our honeymoon. This is beautiful and perfect for our needs as well as the fact we don't have the largest cars. I will be looking into purchasing a kit from you, especially since we live 15 minutes from your company in Annapolis. Maybe we will stop by for a visit :)

    This has to be by far the most beautiful design I've seen of a teardrop yet. My father and I have been looking into building one for a bit and you guys have made it even easier with the kit. We have already bought the manual. I did have one designed question. How much hight is there in the foot cubby. I was just wondering with an air mattress will I just keep kicking the top?

    Best quote lol re. watching videos... "if you must" lol - of course! leave it to boat builders to make a camper that is warm and dry, watertight, with ventilation. Like straight outta the 'Warm Dry Boat' book. :) I wonder what the weight is for towing.... really beautiful camper well done 👍

  • @966Mako
    @966Mako 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very cool. But I don't understand why you put the big red battery switch, in the nice consol. And not in the trunk, or somewhere not so blah. I know someone could put it wherever DIY. But as soon as I saw it, it's all I could think about the rest of the video. Don't worry, I'll be ok. Nice camper!

    @HansKeesom 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Beautiful camper, just wondering if the storagebox should be more integrated into the total design, creating an even better flow and more storage space. Same for the solar panel, integrate it into door of the kitchen to one can turn it into the sun when not cooking.

  • @backyardcnc
    @backyardcnc 7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    After building 2 teardrops, both on custom shop built frames, I can speak with experience when I say you have built an awesome body kit here! However the overall look is seriously brought down by the funky trailer frame you have perched it on top of. You might want to work on something that integrates into a more cohesive design package to produce a final product more fitting to the high quality woodwork!. Still a very cool kit!

    • @ChesapeakeLightCraftBoats
      @ChesapeakeLightCraftBoats  7 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      I don't disagree, really, and would encourage anyone with sophisticated skills to beautify the trailer frame to suit. But remember that the target audience includes many beginners. If you want an affordable plug-and-play trailer option for simplicity's sake, this is what you end up with. -JCH

  • @HaddaClu
    @HaddaClu 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I wonder what it would take to install a propex heater in one of these. I've seen other commercial teardrops with it installed but I love the lines and look of this and I love the idea of being hands one with the building experience

  • @NavigatedChaos
    @NavigatedChaos 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thinking I'm going to use the same way you do this to make a truck cap. I need something pretty, strong, and that will work with my design. Something I can use to camp in and sleep in.

  • @MikeSiemens88

    Someday this will be us! Suggestions for how to make this work with two kids? "loft" option? Bring a tent for them? A teardrop tandem trailer? Ha ha. Serious about the question but maybe not all my suggestions...

    • @ChesapeakeLightCraftBoats
      @ChesapeakeLightCraftBoats  7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      A Teardrop Camper falls closer on the camping spectrum to a tent (a really, really nice tent) than it does to the Winnebago end of the scale. You could pack a large and comfortable tent for the kids. Set up a little portable compound, with the Teardrop as the kitchen and "master stateroom."

      As shown in the photos, fully outfitted, the CLC Teadrop Camper is about 550 pounds. Kits start at $2000. If you check every single options box you end up at about $5000. Completed examples are selling for between $15,000 and $20,000.

    I'd like to see larger wheels to help keep the bearings cool on those longer highway trips.

    • @ChesapeakeLightCraftBoats
      @ChesapeakeLightCraftBoats  7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      In some shots this rendition has 12-inch wheels, in others 8-inch wheels. It's made cross-country treks on both diameter wheels, about 15,000 miles total now. The 12-inch wheels LOOK right and doubtless are easier on the bearings and ride quality. There's no limitation on the wheel size you choose for yours. I've seen an amazing number of teardrops with rims that match the tow vehicle's 17-inch wheels...
