A few folks have asked us where they can find the kit for building this dinghy. The Scout 14 isn't available yet, but you can find the Scout 10, the same boat, just 3.5 feet shorter, here: duckworks.com/plans-kits/kits-and-packages/scout/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwrIixBhBbEiwACEqDJY8q70Y_nLrNNAPWKAvznYevG7OLd0nMN2Ta6-HF-vCXAXUjGTv6ARoCA-kQAvD_BwE
9:40 "Get to work honey." Fantastic insight into how the Duracell project continues apace :)
I love how humble Matt integrates himself in the class. Not bragging about that he does boatwork for a living, but enjoying the group and to working with other guys.
Since building Duracell is a slow meticulous process, it was great to see these little sailboats come together so quickly. What a way to inspire people to take on bigger projects!
How fun! And a productive result too. A nice break from the 'other' project. Thanks for the video 👍👍😁
Thanks, Jim!
Very Nice. In also follow Magic Carpet and enjoyed watching him build his Duck Dingy in his in-laws shop.
I'm thinking about trying it too!
Live to sail, Sail to live!
A boat in a box? It looks very nice. Easy build thats handy for Matt 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just joking he has proved he can work with his hands, just look at how Duracell is coming along. Great video work. 2x👍
Love it! I built a stitch and glue kayak last winter - it’s so satisfying seeing all the parts zip together and the hull shape being formed. I especially like the idea of using dowel pieces to keep the ridges in alignment. Very cool!
This is up there with one of the most enjoyable boaty videos I've watched on CZcams! Great project, interesting to see the process and excellent videography/editing. Many thanks!
Thank you!!
What a wonderful episode, watching these boating enthusiasts building their own boats is extremely satisfying
Looking at that view makes me want to go get on the Bremerton ferry just to get out on the water. It’s a beautiful sunny day here in Olympia 💜💜💜⛵️⛵️⛵️
Love walking into that building, especially, on the wooden boat festival weekend in September. Looks like a fun class. That is going to be a great tender for Duracell. Thanks for the episode.
hi Bob, it's a beautiful shop
I anchor directly offshore from Waterfront Pizza, and dinghy in as needed!
All we could think in the first 10 seconds was how big would an "Open-60-in-a-Box" be?! 🙂Love it!
Always a surprise every week. Looks like the Northwest has as big of a tradition in boat building as does the Maine coast.
I can’t wait to show this episode to my kid, who is taking some dinghy sailing camps this summer and has played extensively on the first dinghy you reviewed in this episode.
I have a feeling we’ll be stitching and gluing together after school this Fall.
So cool that you work with local boatbuilders in this great project! ❤
What a beautiful experience guys! I love that you shared everyone's story in the video. Thank you!
Great idea to use hillbilly music for a Pacific Northwest sailboat build. So appropriate! Thanks Yanni!
thanks for sharing this project, real nice digression, can't wait for next week
Great choice Matt, shame you couldn't the whole crew helping on Duracell. Wicked little dingy
Thank you for sharing this with me. I just love it.
Thanks for doing this!!! I have been wanting to do a build like this for yrs. Might be time to do one!
really cool to see modern blending with classic. CNC cut panels, plastic zip ties, modern epoxy and woven glass.... and sleek classic hull lines. Super cool stuff!
What an awesome little boat! I introduced my daughter to sailing on our Sunfish, which is ok, but the space in the scout is amazing.
Laminating fiberglass onto wood vs foam doesn't seem different, you've been 'wooden boat building' with foam / coosa board is all...
I wish we had stuff like this where I live! I'm right on Lake Erie, and one of these would be sweet to take out to go sailing and fishing. Looking forward to part 2. 👍👍
This is brilliant 🤩
What a great video love it
The video production is excellent.
That’s really cool you made this experience a team build so you could accomplish a lot in a short amount of time! Well played!
I can't wait for the next episode. This is really great. Thanks for sharing this.
Thankyou 😊
I enjoy this type of build it yourself projects.
Great video!!
It’s coming so far !
Keep it up!
❤ from 🇨🇦 bc
From the scenes inside, this looks like a beautiful shop.
Lovely episode! This class looks absolute fun and the speed at which this assembly line pushes out boats is incredible!!! Would love to be part of it😅
Great Stuff!!! CHEERS from HERE!
fun project ! sleek lines on that dingey =)
great episode! Keep rolling along Duracell team! Very nice Dingy! 👍👍 Got to get the Inspectors take on it! 🐈🐈🤣🤣😂😂👍👍
Sweet little dingy.
Cool dinghy builds 😊
Looked like fun. Nice break from Duracell. Would not mind doing that myself. Stay safe brother.
Wow what a cool concept for building boats can't wait to see the final product (:oo
Cool little boats.
Very cool as always
these projects are fun. I built a CLC Passagemaker take apart last winter.
Nice! That is easier to glass the parts on the inside before assembly instead of glassing the inside afterwards. 😊
Oh hi Dave! Hope you’re having fun boat building in Norway.
@@TheDuracellProjectOi, ja! Det er kjempespennende for å hjelpe med vikingskipprojektet her! Jeg kommer til å sende deg bilder når jeg har på meg egen mine vikingklær. 😊
What a wonderful video. Sure wish I was young again. By the way, I love the music!!!!
Great video
Awesome!
Good times 🎉 first ever stitch and glue assembly line
Has a bit of a look of a Drascombe, only much more lightly built and slimmer lines. Nice looking dinghy. 👍
Nice workshop:) Same boat as Magic Carpet?😅
Yep! Just 3 feet longer
Said it once said it before I’m going to be dead by the time he finishes this boat hopefully he won’t be too OCD
just 2-3 more years
@@TheDuracellProject that’s blown out way more since the last time I asked
I will be dead so I won’t see the end of it
They seen like a great bunch of guys 👍
Awesome!! I’m building a boat right now too, but it’s not a stitch and glue.
How fun! I hope the inspector gets to look over your work…🐈
She will do an inspection I’m sure
This is a silly comment but I visited Port Townsend a few years ago while I was going to UW in Seattle before I knew that both Duracell and Tally Ho are located there. Unbelievable how rich the maritime culture is in the Puget Sound.
Pt is a very boaty place
Sooo cool👍🏻
It reminds me of my Dad building a 10' sailing dinghy - popular in 1970's UK & Ireland. It seems Matt enjoyed his time 'team building' boats. Sailing Magic Carpet built a smaller sailing/rowing dinghy, I don't recollect if it was a Scout. It's such a great way to get hold of a decent dinghy.
You have a good eye. Aladino of Sailing Magic Carpet did indeed build a Scout, but not this size. He built the original size, a 10' dinghy.
How cool is that
I believe that is the same boat that Maya and Alidino built on magic carpet.
I would love to dump my old heavy RIB for for one of these. Row, baby!
An excellent diversion while you finish the shed (I guess).
Looks like it should row like a dream.
My family has a peanut class cold molded dinghy built in Norway sometime in late 50s . My dad got from a Sears store in Minneapolis for almost nothing as they weren't selling well and they were going to burn them 😮. He to pick and choose the best parts, rudder, dagger board, rig and sails. Hence or sail numbers don't match the hull number. Look up Peanut class.
That was an interesting video
Thanks for the video looks fun and working with other men is good exercise
Another great video Yani and Matt. I've never seen stich and glue before, what a great idea. I take it the holes for the ties were pre done at cnc? I have two sons who followed me into aircraft contracting and they both found a niche in cnc and went permi, so flat packs always have an interest for me. Maybe I could get them to cut me one if I get the programme. Looking forward to the next instalment. Keep the scissors clean and dont melt the handles Matt! Godbless all three of you (and the inspector!) ❤
Yes holes are pre done
You lucky boy, I draw up a new ship form old plans almost daily trying to find the right fit.... currently have my eye on The Buddy, a tiny little 13' boat that can even be adapted for sailing... though I;m unlikely to go that way as i like fishing. Ihave my eye on nicer ones too, but I;m a pensioner, so gotta keep it real.
I'm doing a really good job of supervising right now hahahahahahaha 🙂
Hard dingy's are so much better than deflateables!
Was wondering what was gliding along above and behind Matt's head at 15:59 until I saw the next overhead shot at 16:26 and realized that was a camera on a rope/wire rig. Nice shots. 16:16 "Shooting!"
when working with a wood joint you must wet out each part with unthickened epoxy before adding a filler. ..the wood will absorb a joint and make a dry joint... look up West epoxy book on wood boat building
Would love a pirate dinghy lol
Your gonna wish you had a dinghy garage
I think supervising and teaching is about right for the fibreglass steps. Lol
Cool
Staring at all those fiber glassed panels makes me want to break out my vacuum press and vac bag them.
Stay tuned...
Such a relaxing feel about building these six boats💖💖💖🇦🇺
Ok, so the banjo is not my favorite instrument. But I dig a fiddle, so groove on mama. Interesting technique on the dinghy.
What do u mean pt2 ? I was enjoying that 😂✌️🇬🇧
I guess they wouldn't let you vacuum bag the glass onto the panels huh? Just kidding. Nice dinghy and nice video.
It would take too long. Would be fun though....
OMGUUUUUUUURD I wanna see how they glue up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LOL
Always wanted to build a stitch and glue boat. Instead I bought one on eBay
As much as I love that sailing/rowing dinghy, wouldn't it be also very useful like tons of other cruisers to have an inflatable dinghy which can get up on plane with a 2stroke Yamaha for example? Or will this dinghy mount an engine as well.
Yes we will mount an electric engine. We want a good sailing and rowing dinghy.
Why not stitch with hemp ties? Future proof the zip juggernaut.
Cool build. Did you consider exchanging roles in this build
We did actually think about it! Probably would have been a little rough for both of us though😂
Hey Matt, I’m just wondering what kind of wood are you using to make the dingy and as always you’re doing a great job and thank you 🙏
The marine ply is by Joubert, the wood species is Okoume'
Is this the same kind of dingy Aladino made for Magic Carpet II ?
Yea, just three feet longer
Cool looking plans. What will finished dingy weigh? Will You be able to beach it and get it back in the water without much trouble?
It looks very seaworthy.
100 pounds so easy to carry for the two of us
...will you ask all these guys if they want to now help with your build?
So, where on Duracell does the dinghy live? On deck? Off of aft davits? How do you get it in and out?
On the foredeck. We’ll show how it will store when it’s done
There’s a couple of places in the UK which do boat building classes like this very interesting to see how it works. Will you have deck chocks or Davit’s?
deck chocks
is there a link for more info on the boat kit?
You can find the scout 10 kit here, which is 3.5 feet shorter but otherwise the same boat. The scout 14 will be available soon! duckworks.com/plans-kits/kits-and-packages/scout/
A "wood" core boat, with fiberglass keeping it all together?
That's a pretty accurate summary of stitch and glue boat building.
Did I see some Puddle Duck Racers hanging on the wall? :-)
yep!
And several Portage Prams
I have this fantasy project in mind to make a trimaran using the Puddle Duck profile, or to extend the puddle Duck profile in length and make it the basis of a plywood knockoff of the Hobie Tandem island...
No Legends ?
How much is this kit?
These guys are helping us come up with that price. I anticipate it will come in at around $5,600 complete with the epoxy, glass, sail rig, hardware, cnc kit etc...
Why is there no volume on this episode…?
