Building a Glos'tah Light Dory

[Green Light]

Thanks for the tip.

Here is the one I found:

"Boatbuilding: A Complete Handbook of Wooden Boat Construction" by Howard Irving Chapelle

http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Boa...9780393035544/

Is this the one you are thinking of? From the synopsis, it looks comprehensive.

Thanks again.

Tight lines.

You don't need those in depth wooden boat building books for that job, they will confuse you. I haven't built that but isn't it stitch and glue plywood. Simple once you give it some thought. West or MAS epoxy the piss out of it and go for a row.

I didn't build one of those but I did build a stitch and glue boat 5-6 years ago. I made an 11" garvey skiff boat from plans from these guys http://www.bateau.com/index.php

I built the GV-11. http://www.bmwoodworking.com/gv11.htm
They have a great forum with lots of support for building the boats and they sell supplies.

Good luck with your build, it sounds like quite a project.
