- A little bit of everything in this episode, epoxy work, rabbet work and forward sole hatch construction. Exciting times coming up, as at long last, with the hatches located, i can now properly lay out the forward cabin interior!
This is this is the story of a complete boat owning and boat building novice and his family, constructing a 41’ full displacement trawler yacht in the backyard of their upstate New York home. While I consider myself a fairly advanced amateur woodworker and DIY guy, I’ve never owned a boat before and certainly have never built one either.
The naval architect, George Buehler, designed this boat, from his Diesel Duck line, with the home builder in mind. This design has been licensed for professional builders in China and Turkey, but George’s goal was always to make the large, blue water cruising boat within the reach of the average person.
His commitment to a design that was attainable for the average handy person, resulted in his first book, Buehlers Backyard Boat Building, detailing the process. His designs often include building materials and fasteners available at the big box home improvement stores.
George believed that a robust, comfortable and safe cruising boat could be built with less than ideal, traditional materials. While he acknowledge that less than ideal materials may limit the vessels longevity and resale value, his design would get people safely out on the water while the other guy remained landlocked saving for a design he would never be able to afford to build.
Many traditionalist scoff at his mostly hard chined designs and deviation from traditional methods and materials. However his maverick approach has made the dream of crossing oceans in a home built boat a reality for many around the world. No matter what the “experts” say, his designs have been proven over and over with literally hundreds of examples cruising the worlds oceans today.
Our goal is to be next!

It's been a few years watching this boat build.
Looks like this year the boat will be ready to launch
Congratulations mate,
Good show
You know what might be nice, is if you would film a nice slow pan of the salute to service board so we could pause and read the patches. Just a thought.
Attention to detail that's what I like a out your project.
Of all the steps I have learned in boat building watching TH-cam videos, the Rabbet line cut for the fitting the Garbard plank still seems to reside more on the side of art than science.
Yahoo! Another episode from Six Points Wood Works!😊
Press on my friend. You are going very well.
Stay safe and we'll see you next time.
wow that was quick for posting another video that's awesome Scott Everything coming together, really looks great.
Looking “boaty”! Excellent to see and, per usual, great attention to craftsmanship.
Great to have you back regular again Scott.
Always great to see a new post. Looking good. Hard to make progress during the winter. Thanks
Good promotion! A very beautiful hatch. It will give a lot of air. It's worth working on his defense. Can be epoxy
Love it when you post a video! Nice work.
Stay warm and safe.
Nice job ur doing great makwning this boat
Every thing is coming together nicely. Looking forward to further progress.
Looks good!
You are amazing. You are very talented. I've been following you since your first video. Learning and living with you is very exciting. I look forward to each of your videos. Thank you very much for all the information you share. With love and greetings from Istanbul, my retired police chief.
Seeing that propeller on your shed made me think of a video I just saw on Sharrow Propellers. More expensive up front, but save so much money on fuel. So if you haven't bought your propeller yet, you might want to look into them.
Well done Sgt.
More progress. Good to see you are getting some weather you can work in. Thank you for the update on your progress. Take care and have a good weekend.
Great progress look forward to each new video
Looking good. 👍
Nice to see a new video Scott, wishing they were more frequent. Be well.
I can't get enough of your videos. Your wood working skills are amazing. You project is really looking great. Each video is so full of useful information. You are living the dream.
Nice work Scott. Wish you had time to produce these videos more regularly. Try adding some felt pads to the bottom mating surface of the hatches.
Great videos. Very instructive and very interesting. I like the way you explain things and the passion for what you do.
I would suggest permanently numbering the hatches somehow, so you know which one goes where.
Just got caught up on the videos and I have a couple of comments.
1. The frames are bolted to the floors and then bolted to the keel with only one bolt per frame/floor , is that strong enough? It seems like a lot of weight. The hull wants to float up and the keel wants to pull everything down.
2. How are you going to add ballast to the bottom of the keel /bilge with all the tanks and soles installed.
3. Why didn’t you extend the small carlines all the way to the planks to add structure?
Hey Scott, been following your progress pretty much since the beginning and was wondering if you ever needed any help? Been working with wooden boats for many years and I’m a retired commercial cabinetmaker, im a little east of Buffalo so i don’t think I’m to far from your location
👍
Always happy to see a Six Points Woodworking video pop up.
Great job on the hatches Scott.
Interior layout will be great to see.
Have you made a decision on the motor set up?
@5:55 was there a reason to have the sawblade extended all the way out and with no guard or riving knife on it like that?
Your video's just started back but dated as of a year ago. This is Aug. 2024 and have you posted anything since??? Have been watching Yaba; Tally Ho ; Arabella ; Ran and others. kinda forgot about you ........................... enjoy
come on. I hope the day of launching this ship will come sooner.🎉
Those rachet stops won't last long at sea when salt air will rust them quick
I must say I was really scared when you leaned over or stretched your arm across the moving table saw.
Just what the doctor ordered
👋👁👃👁👍
🔥
What happened? Areyoustill working ontheboat?
Are there any episodes past 80
Nice work Scott. I'll bet those feel nice underfoot
Have you given up releasing videos?
you're the only person I've seen who wears gloves while using a table saw, which makes me think that is not a safe practice
yes its always a great time when you post. keep up the great work we love to see it!
