Building 10.5 ft plywood boat - everyone can make!
I’ve built a simple plywood rowboat.
This skiff boat is very good for fishing on lakes.
Boat plans are here:
Materials:
- 3 x 1/4“ plywood, 4’x8’ (maybe 3/8“ would be even better);
- 5 x 1“x1“x8’ boards for bottom supports and external rub rail;
- 3 x 1/2“x1“x8’ boards for internal rub rail (you can use 1“x1“, too);
- 1 x 2“x2“x8’ board for the stern stem and transom;
- 2“x3“s or 2“x4“s for spreading the sides and for supports/bases for the seats (optional);
- 1 x 1“x6“x6’ for the seats;
- 1/2 - 3/4 gallons of epoxy;
- About 40 ft of 4“-wide fiberglass tape;
- Nails and/or screws of any size between 1/2“ and 3/4“;
- Thickener for epoxy - I used silica powder but sawdust would be good, too;
- Wood glue (I’ve used 1-1/2 cans of Gorilla Glue but I was too generous with the glue, I could make it with only 1 can);
- Primer for epoxy surfaces (optional), 1 qt;
- Paint for external works, any kind you like, about 1/2 gallons;
- Oars, oarlocks, aft eye, various small screws, etc. - optional, by your choice.
All quantities and sizes are variable, depending on your style of work and desired results.
My total investments were about $350-$400 with all bells and whistles (not including tools, I had them already).
Total building time - about 3 weeks, evenings and weekends only. Such a long time is because many operations (gluing, epoxying, bending) are requiring time for settling.
A legal disclaimer: I’m not a certified boat builder. I may be wrong in something and I cut corners sometimes. Use my videos at your own risk.
