As a fellow boat builder I have to send kudos to you. That is certainly a big hole in the water you have undertaken there. When I was building boats people always used to asked, " when will it be done?", "how long did that take?". To answer these inquiries I came up with a unit I measure that I will pass along to you to use. It is called the 1 Boat Hour. How long will that take? 1 Boat Hour! The Boat Hour is like Murphy's Variable Constant it can be expanded or contracted to express reality. Some mornings I would walk into the boat shed and just be overwhelmed by the behemoth standing before me. With all the resolve I could muster I would say to myself, " well, to hesitate now all is lost, just put in 1 Boat Hour and THEN quit." It is amazing what one can get done in 1 Boat Hour.
A good come along and chain fall is worth its weight in gold here. As a house framing carpenter i completely appreciate this video. I never knew what went into building a boat and im blown away impressed.
This was such a satisfying video to watch. I don't even know you guys but I'm proud of you. What a beautiful (and hard) work. Post more project please. Thank you for this one!
wow looks super awsome! i work in a small shipyard, of like 5-6 people and we build tugboats(about 40ft-60ft length boats), we crank out a fully operation on in about almost a bit more than a year. watching this just make me so happy watching some one love what they are doing and trying to make everything the best they can
@@christiankane5802 for sure! if you want you can buddy and you are at the right age to do it. Do what you really love and you will succeed and sometimes even do better than someone having years of experiences. Just need to find the right place for you and I have a little secret for you. When you seem interested guys always like it and when they explain something to you lisen carfully and they will even like to show you tricks that lots do not want to share just because they learned it the hard way. But because you lisen and seem interested in their stuff will make them in high esteem sometimes. It could be basic stuff when I'm saying that like it but you will see what I mean on the tarmac when it wiil be the moment. That's an old trick from my grand father and belive me I used that many times and it reslly works. Sorry I'm french and I don't speak english really, then I hope you understood the highlights of my advices. Otherwise you need to try it to see what I really mean and of course it's always different from one guy to an other. But like I said you need to want to do it first and foremost and do it with a smile on your face that's important. Peace and good luck!
I have a dream to build a pilot cutter one day, yet I’m learning woodworking and building a shop for now to get to boatbuilding. Your video was a great inspiration for me, thank you. I stood up in tears clapping and sniffing at the moment when the last frame was fixed. Thank you for your work.
I came here from a skin over frame canoe building channel. Sometimes I wonder about the TH-cam recommendation algorithm (this 16 foot canoe weighs 30 pounds....) This project is the definition of the word awesome. Thanks for taking the time to make videos while working on the project!
Been watching since you started. Your boat prompted me to read Mr. Buellers book. Keep following your dream. Few people act on their big ideas, much less build the vessel to make it happen. I hope to see you travel the world in your boat. Keep at it!
Impressive work that you practically do alone, I am impressed, even when you look at the construction of the hangar, and all this preparation of the keel, the verandas, Wouahouu ... !! what a job .... hat the artist, best to you from France ... !!
Nice recap, Scott. Your solution to cutting the rebates is nice. Using the saw like that is better than any other idea you came up with ( no "cringe factor" whilst I watched ). You'll blast through the rest of them in no time.
Yea I tried the circular saw blade on the angle grinder and that just seemed like a disfiguring injury waiting to happen. The process is actually going faster than I thought.
Hope to see the rest of the work. You can post videos with more details... like a week in 10-20 min. I do believe there are lots of interesting moments during building process and how did you solved it. Good luck!
I started watching SV Seeker last year and that led me to you and others nice start your gonna have a nice boat one day soon thanks from Athens, Vermont
Damn, another job I didn't know I would love to do. Why does it take so long in life to find things that make us tick hard. I mean I love woodwork etc, but never thought of building boats other than the 14 boat we overhauled for my dad when I was like 15.
This was an amazing video. I'm a welder (more hobby than trade), and I'm in the process of slowly putting together a little shop so that I can start working on projects of my own (not at this magnitude of course), and seeing videos like this is very inspiring to me. Keep up the excellent work, looking forward to seeing the the next video of this project! Oh...and go RAIDERS!!
Quanta habilidade e carinho no que faz, Impressionante, é uma arte e não um trabalho, o amigo sem sombra de dúvidas...UM ARTISTA❗️ Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
Never seen a ship made entirely out of pre-sawn dimensional lumber before. Always a bit of custom sawing for those bigger pieces... How many hundred gallons of glues and epoxys went into this beaut?
While this boat certainly be built all with dimensional lumber, all are stuff is custom cut except for a few pieces of dimensional doug fir in the keel. This boat is made of Larch (tamarack), yellow pine and white oak.
Hello Sir : very nice way to Build your Small Ship,awesome to watch all the different ways to Build a Ship (boat). Good luck and GOD BLESS you and Family and the small Ship
Hello, I was wondering what wood is this boat made of? You may have said it in the video but as I do not speak English ... Thank you for your response and for sharing your passion. Good continuation !
@@SixPointsWoodWorks Are you sure about that? Most everything I saw in the video looked like yellow pine (SYP), which is what most dimension lumber obtained from the big box places such as Home Depot and Lowes will be.
I never see people address the issue of rott during a build. All you have to do to dramatically reduce future rott is to spray or roll everything (especially endgrains) with Smith's epoxy oil or flexible epoxy resin before paint. Skipping this step creates a nightmare of constant future maintenance.
Randomly showed up in my TH-cam feed, now subscribed - I absolutely love seeing big awesome projects like this! Looking forward to following this project in the years to come :)
SO DID I ! I think it was Leo's project up in Sequim, WA? He's rebuilding that 107 year old boat, the Tally Ho. Everyone who likes this vid has to check out Leo's gig.... it'll blow you away.
haha. Thanks to you, man, professionalism should not be overlooked, despite loving automatic, I enjoy manual work. Today, with so much control engineering, robots and algorithms for everything, I prefer to see you, that a few KUKA automatas building from the base this boat, is my reverence to more than 60,000 years of history in shipbuilding.
JOHN BYRNE haha, I’m a retired cop, I bought the plans from George Buehler yacht design. I haven’t owned or built a boat before so I don’t know a lot about the marine world but I’m learning. This design is a pretty simple one, so your average woodworker or DIY guy, like myself can figure the process out. George has a book called “backyard boat building “ that is a sort of a companion bible to this design and building process.
I was gonna say, are those temporary molds for bending frames? Or is all that laminated plywood the frames themselves? What kind of boat builders are these?
I was wondering where you got the plans for your plastic covered wood frame you used for your temporary work shop? I was thinking it could be adapted to growing tunnels. By the way interesting build, I can't wait to see it finished.
You might try a power woodcarver with a double chainsaw blade to hog out most of the material freehand, then use a simple router jig to cut to the lines.
I'm in Monroe County just west of rochester. Folks are always welcome to come for a visit, I'm just not sure I have enough knowledge yet where I could properly instruct someone on what needs to be done.
No denying your skills, but I'm missing something here. I've never heard of any wooden boat being built with what appears to be pine and construction grade plywood. Are appearances deceiving me, or is pine actually a common boat building material?
There are mortal carpenters and craftsman....Then there is you ...I am utterly speechless and in awe. Bravo on this epic project.

Glad you liked it and thanks for the kind words!
Thanks man ... I build houses and I want to build a boat⛵ ,,, seeing it done with material ... I use every day was awesome ... thanks ... Dave
Man that's beautiful ,,, it really turns me on ... D
You are one serious worker with great knowledge and skills. Much respect to you and best wishes with your project. From Ireland.
Thanks Denis!
I am in awe. Your skills are remarkable and seeing the project take shape is just a joy to watch. looking forward to more videos.

Could an 18yr old get some form of an "apprenticeship" at a place like that?

It's good to step back and see where you started and where you are now. Just an incredible amount of work and accomplishment !
Thanks Alvey. Not everyday is fun, but it's nice to see the evolution over time.

This project is the definition of the word awesome. Thanks for taking the time to make videos while working on the project!
Thanks. It's surprising how much this and even the smallest boat have in common. a lot of common principles, just difference in scale.
Been watching since you started. Your boat prompted me to read Mr. Buellers book. Keep following your dream. Few people act on their big ideas, much less build the vessel to make it happen. I hope to see you travel the world in your boat. Keep at it!

in the old days there were iron men in wood boats, now days there are iron boats with wooden men, great vid, great craftsmanship and will THANX!
Nice recap, Scott. Your solution to cutting the rebates is nice. Using the saw like that is better than any other idea you came up with ( no "cringe factor" whilst I watched ). You'll blast through the rest of them in no time.
Yea I tried the circular saw blade on the angle grinder and that just seemed like a disfiguring injury waiting to happen. The process is actually going faster than I thought.
Lots and lots of patience. Wow.
Thanks for sharing your process with us.
Geniales Projekt. Ich bin schon gespannt, wie das Schiff am Ende aussehen wird. Weiter so!
Vielen Dank!
Love to see you work good job.
Cool,That's all 66 years Captain, mechanic love it.
As long as you know what you’re doing, that’s all that’s important. Cos I haven’t got a clue. Great work.
80% of the Video i was like " yeah that looks like a.. Ops nevermind its something completely different "
I am never going to build a boat, but good on y'all for this impressive feat.
Thanks Casey, I never thought I would build a boat either, you just never know!
Absolute Genius and so patient .
Congratulations. Ure the best on water now👍🏼
well done Scott, great to see your progress.
We're getting there, slow but surely!
Right information for Shed Lover!!!
Hard work...God bless you
Neat video. I admire the amount of work it took to get it here, and the amount to finish. All the best.
It's great to see it take shape, but damn, we have a long way to go!
Hope to see the rest of the work. You can post videos with more details... like a week in 10-20 min. I do believe there are lots of interesting moments during building process and how did you solved it. Good luck!
Thanks for the input Rick. I do like hearing what people are interested in seeing. I'll keep it in mind.
Lots of progress in the past year plus. Congrats on your endeavour. Thanks for the video
I started watching SV Seeker last year and that led me to you and others nice start your gonna have a nice boat one day soon thanks from Athens, Vermont
Thanks Sean, we are big fans of Seeker too!
Mann I'm jelly! This boat is going to be epic once its done!!
Congratulations ,huge milsetone.Cheers Ross
OMG! Unbelievable amount of work!
The shelter is also a realy cool idea!
It has worked out great, very durable however I wish I built it taller.
You took great Scott’s DIY or Buy to the next level
Thanks and respect !

Soooo much hard work
Congrat on the 10.000 subs. ! A lot has been done the last 2 years ! Looking forward to follow you in the new year.
Crazy how fast the time goes!
Just beautiful
U ever see one of those guys thats too smart ........ yeah this is how they build a boat wow
First my respect for undertaking this project, but is it really cost effective ?
This will probably come to late , but you can use linseed oil. putty and red lead powder as a bedding compound. So much cheaper.
This was an amazing video. I'm a welder (more hobby than trade), and I'm in the process of slowly putting together a little shop so that I can start working on projects of my own (not at this magnitude of course), and seeing videos like this is very inspiring to me. Keep up the excellent work, looking forward to seeing the the next video of this project! Oh...and go RAIDERS!!
Damn right go Raiders! Thanks Daniel, good for you. We bought this house because it had a stand alone building that could be my shop!
You keeled it ! Nice job.. !
Great work Scott you have made great progress always very interesting thanks for sharing 👍👍
Thanks Kerry, we'll keep on, keeping on!

Most enjoyable and satisfying video I've watch in a while. Well done, and well edited.
Hello, I was wondering what wood is this boat made of?
You may have said it in the video but as I do not speak English ...
Thank you for your response and for sharing your passion. Good continuation !
Mostly white oak, Larch and Douglas fir.
hello, thank you for your answer it's nice.
Continue like that you make us dream !
@@SixPointsWoodWorks Are you sure about that? Most everything I saw in the video looked like yellow pine (SYP), which is what most dimension lumber obtained from the big box places such as Home Depot and Lowes will be.

Thats great. I do too, amazing the various things average people can build.
Amazing work. Well done Sir.
thanks!
Wow, I watched another video on someone restoring a old wooden sailing boat yesterday and they also found a bullet when cutting into oak!

Well done Scott, things are progressing
Broski buildin noahs ark over here yall. Super cool
Ante Odak I thought the same thing
Oh yeah yeah
Much smaller than Noah's Ark, but funny comment none the less.
Did you say YAHTZEE!!!! Me too!!! 13:30... when you flipped it back over!!!
haha, yes I did!
haha.

haha!
Brilliant video.
Thanks Fabian!
Hard, Hard work

Thanks Dan!
Man you are truly an inspiration to us all! Keep living your dream!
Man... thats some really cool stuff... - i wish i knew how to do that. Great content
books and youtube, you can learn anything!
What glue type from Jamestown are you using at frame 4:36 + to glue up that box member?
love job
Bravo pour ton travail
amazing work
I was gonna say, are those temporary molds for bending frames? Or is all that laminated plywood the frames themselves? What kind of boat builders are these?
The dimensional lumber inside the boat is temporary bracing. The use of plywood as gussets is a pretty common boat building practice.
Very interesting work. What are you painting green at the joints?
I wish I owned a lumberyard like him
Very cool. I am wondering what is name of your glues for the heavy keel work? I intend to build my own structural beams.
Aerodux 185, its a rescorcinol glue.
I was wondering where you got the plans for your plastic covered wood frame you used for your temporary work shop? I was thinking it could be adapted to growing tunnels. By the way interesting build, I can't wait to see it finished.
Thanks Phil! check out our website, there is a tab at the top that talks all about the shed. It was a great project too. www.seadreamerproject.com
Xdccc
omg you are a great person !
This will not be sea worthy, But it might float! GG man
KNOW WAY!
True Art
Thanks Butch! what a great name!
Great work!
You are doing great job I would say just wonderful just keep it up n drop More videos I love to watch thanks.
Thanks Noel, glad you're following along.
next level
You might try a power woodcarver with a double chainsaw blade to hog out most of the material freehand, then use a simple router jig to cut to the lines.
I need to know what a power woodcarver with a double chainsaw blade is
Awesome build.But Im a simple man.U had me at the excellent building u built to build the boat in.
The shed build was a great project too!
É uma responsabilidade muito grana fura á quilha e não sai do prumo.... eu gostaria muito de participar de um projeto tão grande.... Parabéns!!!!
Excellent
Wow! Nice progress, very impressed. You should have that done in a couple more weeks eh??
Can’t wait for next video.
Of course, just a couple more weekends
Will do good on the lakes
Where in Upstate NY are you? I'm in Syracuse myself.
Do you allow volunteers to come help you build like SV Seeker in Oklahoma?
I'm in Monroe County just west of rochester. Folks are always welcome to come for a visit, I'm just not sure I have enough knowledge yet where I could properly instruct someone on what needs to be done.
