Short and sweet. I am back in the boat business, yeah;) Anyway, I will
at this time be starting with 4 hulls. Two 16 foot light flatbottom workskiffs similar to: http://www.yaimkool.com the other two of similar construction and a Vee hull, with a planing deck and 12 deg deadrise at the transom. Both hulls would be well served with a 25 horse tiller drive, the flatbottom can do hull speed all day with a 3-5 horse. I already have a "storefront" on the CT shoreline, but if anyone here is interested before I send them down, let me know... I will do you good, no doubt... |

Seating, electronics, storage, suncover, tiller, console? What do you think the pricing should look like? Should I go with a quick down and dirty flatbottom, a quick down and dirty Vee, or a more elaborate hybred with clinker construction and a little brightsides?? Any input will be appreciated... |

You might be better served asking those questions of prospective buyers. If you are getting into the small runabout biz, though, I always thought that 14-16' boats with nice varnished decks and seats and round chines were fun, and offered a decent ride with 20-50 hp outboards. Look at the old Penn Yans (though I wouldn't waste time on a strip built boat). If you are going clinker built, use bolts, not rivets. -- Billary, the most sold out Whitehouse in history. Clinker would be built with bronze alloy screws at the joints and copper nails, crimped over inside on the seams. All backed up with epoxy and glass fabric. A stripper would be a personal project, not to sell. The first few boats will be knockdown workskiffs as noted above, but I am trying to decide to go from there. I have been looking at a particular old school semi-dory for over a decade, I really think it is going to be the direction I move after I get going. One of the biggest problems with wooden boats of this size is the seating. Everyone wants to remove the thwarts but few understand just how important they are to the structural integerity of the boat. Wrap around seating is one option but creates problems of it's own. I have to tell you, "most" of the very well established "new school" builders I see are not building legal boats, especially when it comes to the flotation. Unfortunately, the USCG has not the manpower or the teeth to do anything about it.. |

Unfortunately, the USCG has not the manpower or the teeth to do anything about it.. We always liked the boats built by Stur-Dee dory. Of course, in "my day," they were built of wood, and now they're built of fiberglass with nice wood trip. Check out the site...I'm sure you know of the place. The founder, who was a buddy of my father, died last year, but I understand his children or grandchildren are continuing the business. These dories are perfect fishing skiffs for Long Island Sound, and are easily driven with small outboards. They row nicely,too.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - The Amesbury dory is just about where I am going... It is 14 feet iirc.. It is also a Gardner boat like the one I am looking at. I am looking at a somewhat larger boat, and I will probably stay with wood for now. Who knows, maybe someday I will build a mold or two but I know there is a lot more to that than I am ready for and don't want to contract one out. |

May be a bigger market for those than wood skiffs. |
