That is quite a big project for a first timer so I admire your courage. One thing that is important is to put butt blocks across all your joins in the ply on the inside of the hull and on your stringers, all that you need is a 6inch wide strip of ply glued along them an screw them together with lots of screws because you can't clamp them. I use gorilla glue because Titebond 3 is too expensive here in Oz. I also use hex head screws because having an integral washer they clamp better and come out easier and can be used again often. Don't worry about screwing blocks and stuff on to hold things because whats a few more holes to fill. Standing there looking and thinking is a valuable part of the process, something that will pay off in the long run. Good luck with build and I look forward to the journey of your progress.
I just started watching your channel because I also am interested in building one of these. I see it’s been months sense this video hope it’s still coming together for you. Wanting to see this thing through. Good luck!!
The 2# foam per plans will stiffen the hull. The 1200 biax glass should hold up well on the bottom of the hull. I added 6" strips down the keel and the chines for extra insurance. An oyster would probably scrape it but I wouldn't worry about putting a hole in the bottom of the hull unless you hit something hard going full speed.
Some reason I can't add more comments without youtube deleting it. Go to my channel, and click on ABOUT. There should be a Instagram link.. My full build is there so you can use it as reference.
As for the bilge area, I cut down the top of the stringer to lower the floor and made a pocket for water to collect into. I have my bilge pump sits in the lowest part of the bilge pocket and the exit hose is mounted to the starboard side of the hull.
I see a bit of gaps in between the chines. I used a hand planer to knock down the high spots on the edges of the plywood to get those gaps closed up. They don't have to be perfect, but it's best to have joints fairly close so you don't have to fill them with thickened epoxy so much.
Hello! I'm thinking about building a boat for myself and I spent a lot on your videos and it's a shame you didn't post anything else, I'm following you. My name is Marcelo and I live in Brazil, could you send me the project for this boat, I would be very grateful, and if you have more videos that would be even better. Hugs and stay with God!
Hello thank you for your message. I will hopefully be getting back to working on the boat as soon as I get my son’s truck running. My other videos. As for sending you the project I’m not sure what you mean by that. But if you are interested in getting the plans I bought mine from a website salt boat works. I think it was $200 us for the plans. The code with patterns to help cut the plywood for the boat. Thank you for watching and hope will have some new videos up soon.

I had to put it on hold for a little while. Hoping to get back at it here in a few weeks.
Yes I really want to see this one on the water!
Super👍
Perahu yg bagus bro tetapi mohon pembuatannya di liput sampai selasai agar penonton bisa menikmati setiap episode sampai ahir yang sempurna
Whats up with boat?
