- How I Made my Wooden Boat.
This is a detailed process building a Wooden Dinghy using the "Stitch and Glue" method, and "Roll and Tip" paint process.
It takes you through the layout, cutting of parts, Stitch and Glue assembly, fiber-glassing, fairing, priming, painting, installing rudder hardware and finally the launch.
The Boat: SD-11 Semi Dory.
LOA: 11'-4" (3.45m)
Beam: 4'-2" (1.27m)
Draft: 4" (10cm)
Weight: 90 lbs. (40.82kg+-)

A really cute Nowegian (?) baby. She's a sweety, Captain !! Happy sailing from Barcelona 🧜♂️⚓🧜♀️
Your video gives a great review on how to build a dinghy, including lots of tips on how to make things easier, like the PVC tube clamps. You also have a perfect voice for comments, but quite often the music is so loud that you can hardly be understood. Still, I enjoyed watching it till the end! Happy sailing!
you're not just a boat builder and a sailor, you're also a singer! lol. congrats on your pretty awesome boat build.
Glad to see you still going strong at 72 years old.
i didn't understand stitch and glue till now thank you so much
Beautiful. Every boat is perfect, in it's way. The perfection is on the artwork, the care and love needed to accomplish. Im bulding a 20 foot gaff rigged sailboat with a small cabin, and I know that a lot of love is needed :) thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you so much for this kind comment. God speed with your project, hope to see it when it's completed.
I found this video after watching your video on making a polytarp sail, and low and behold! You're in my neck of the woods! Treasure coast native here, just purchased the plans for building a Piccup Pram! I'd love the opportunity to pick your brain on a DIY project like this, as like yourself I've built many things, but never a boat! Cheers to you Captain and may the wind be ever in your favor!
Thank You for subscribing and for your kind comment. I'm actually in North Port. Got hit pretty hard by hurricane Ian. Lost my dinghy but found it after a couple of weeks a hundred yards or so down stream, once the waterways got back to normal. It was mostly buried in silt but sustained very little damage. Great test for its construction. Like to see your project once it's under way and also completed. God speed with your project.
terrific educative video. Thanks for the great effort. I must say that you are fit to be able to work on that boat at such a low level/height. My eyes would have been popping out if I had to do that.
Hi Chris.... Thank you very much!
Great video and you made a lovely looking boat .
Well done! 👍.
A little late but thank you for your kind comment.
An immense amount of work. You did a great job building the dingy and recording the build. Congratulations!
MR HOLTAN, you built a beautiful boat! i really liked the color selection.
that was fun. Congratulations, on the build, the video and your maiden voyage! cheers, Chuck
I truly admire your energy and craftmanship. Thanks.
I love this video just what I want but why did you punish us with the loud music while talking?
Great video! I’m impressed with all the steps that went into making this boat! It looks great!
Thank you very much, so glad you liked it!
He was always a practical one......congratulation from Italy
Great job. I liked the details you included. I've seen many stich & glue videos but yours just showed someone slowly plugging away (I completely get the 4 hour work day in that heat!!).
I also found it so different to see how many shots had you smoking in them. I've watched hundreds if not thousands of hours of TH-cam & I rarely see someone smoking. My cousin smokes so I'm not saying it's bad -- just different to see since so few videos show it 😉
Great looking boat. Good job!
Well done sir ! On everything
I really like your relaxed approach to boat building...thank you .... but the music is way too loud.... it ought to be background music but it's almost foreground meaning it takes extra effort to hear you.
Or even no music.
Nice job man love the video
Awesome vid
Lovely,
Thank you.
thank you sir this is amazing!!!
Keep inspiring us here in Philippines.
Thank you very much for sharing. I hope to build similar one with my son in close future , maybe bit smaller :-) for beginning :-)
Thank you for commenting. FYI: Don't build a smaller one. You may wish you'd have built a bigger one. Mine is barely big enough for my wife and I. Anyway... Good Luck to you and your son!

Nice work
She is a beauty!
Great job thanks for the instruction! I am starting my first boat build a Matt Leydon Paradox sharpie in a couple weeks and have been watching as much as I can about boat building.
I like your puzzle joint pre-fab. My boat will either be scarfed (scary difficult to me) or butt jointed still debating.
Bravo !
Very nice 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I need to do it myself, from the other side of the world, as a working hand learning the ropes, can I come?
Wanted to like the video but the obnoxious sound track just got in the way.
Otherwise, appreciated you sharing the experience.
Great video - I got a really good understanding of the overall process. One question - how did the non-skid surface work out? When you were applying the substance to create the texture on the deck, it looked like you added very little. I probably would have been more heavy handed. Was it enough?
Thank you for your comment! The non-skid process worked great. After it was set, I vacuumed the deck and it looked and worked great. Good luck with your project. As you may know, our area was devastated by hurricane Ian. I lost my dock and when it was all over my dinghy was gone. I fly a drone and after several attempts to locate my dinghy I found it down stream mostly submerged in silt but very little damage. Once my house is back in order I will post a video on how I found it and how I brought it back to life and looking like new. Thanks again.
@@yvindholtan8596 yes. My parents are in Venice. They had it easy compared to the rest of you all. Good luck with the recovery - I definitely want to see that video.
I hope I didn't break the like button. I hit it pretty hard.
Думаю, лучше без мороки проще купить надувную лодку и не парится с перевозкой
fuck yeah! nice job. I am about to undertake this process myself and appreciate the tips. Happy sailing.
Love the boat, but I gotta tell you, man...the music wrecked the experience for me! It reminded me of being back in school, where the teachers always had some loud distracting music playing while they taught, to overpower their words, in order to make sure that the learning experience for us students was minimal at best. But like I said... love the boat!
people don't like smokers...
Shut up Wayne you pleb
Lovely,
Thank you.
