All Videos » Building the Caledonia Yawl
Short of taking a course in person at a boat building school, there’s nothing like our glued lapstrake plywood boat building videos for learning the ins and outs of this wooden boat building method. In our in-depth series on how to build an Iain Oughtred-designed Caledonia Yawl, pro boat builder Geoff Kerr takes you all the way through the process from setting up shop to rigging and launch.
Get hours of up-close instruction from Geoff and save time and money getting it right the first time. Whether it’s making the building frame, setting the molds, planking, building the centerboard trunk, building the rails or painting, Geoff shares insider tips and tricks so you can keep your build moving forward with confidence.
Plywood Lapstrake Construction is a modern boat building method which involves overlapping and fastening with epoxy the edges of marine-grade plywood planks. These designs are easy to build, unusually light and strong, and free from leaks. Have a look at the full series below.
