Building a JW 'Tender Behind' - Part Ten

Posted 31-08-2010 at 12:07 AM by Mike (Building Boats In My Backyard)
Tuesday, 31 August 2010

ROGUE Build

Posted 23-05-2010 at 11:36 AM by Dan Calvert (ROGUE Build)
Some time ago I wandered out of the newsagent with a wooden boat magazine. I had been sailing once about 30 years ago and vaguely knew the pointy bit was called the bow (good job I didn't know about Ian Oughtred's Caledonian Yawl....) and I still don't know why I bought the magazine but there was one design in there that caught my eye.

Building John Welsford's 'Pioneer' - Arriving Soon - Part One

Posted 13-05-2010 at 05:02 PM by Mike (Building Boats In My Backyard)
This will be the site of my new build blog of John's beautiful 'Pioneer'. She will be 20 feet LOA and fitted with a full width cabin. However, it is a cabin which will be just a little different. 'Retro' may be the more appropriate word for it.

More on this later as I get the build under way. I have all I need to get going but am waiting on some top secret drawings from 'The Master' before getting her under way.

In the meantime, here are a few photos of my preparation

Building a JW 'Tender Behind' - Part Nine

Posted 13-05-2010 at 04:36 PM by Mike (Building Boats In My Backyard)
This is Part Nine of my Tender Behind Blog. Plenty more parts to come after this one too but she's getting there. To look at earlier Parts until I get this one going, click here.

Well, I guess I ought to offer some excuses for the gap in my progress. Seriously, I have been very busy indeed and, unfortunately, haven't had time to actually do much with the TB build. The decks are now cleared, though, so I am back at it again.

Build Pictures of HOUDINI Gaff Rig- John Welsford Jan - July '10

Posted 30-04-2010 at 04:45 AM by George Cunningham
JANUARY '10

After adding upper and lower stringers, upper planking goes on easily. Also deck support strips and king plank can go on now. Somewhere in here, following the instruction sheet, the temp frames have been removed.
