Yes, You Can Build a Boat, #18 - Fitting the Chine Log on a Pokomoke Deadrise

- Here I describe the process of fitting the chine log, done by John Toolz on his 24' [7.3 M] Pokomoke Deadrise project.
EDIT: John added this note to me via email:
Jeff, very nice presentation. One note so folks don’t get mislead. I do use 5200 for the frames and bedding the chine and shear but I use thickened epoxy for the scarfs and attaching the chine at the bow. The 5200 takes to long to set to use for scarfs unless I wanted to wait 7 days. With epoxy and fast hardener they are ready the following day even in a 55 degree shop.
Thanks
John

thanks so much jeff, your designss and learning give a lot to encourage we amateur boat builders worldwide. Thanks a lot!
Thank you for the video. These videos are a nice reference library for those of us getting ready to build one of your boats. Take care and stay well.
You live forever, Jeff. Rest in peace.
I just found out that Jeff passed. I had a 33 min conversation with him a few weeks before that ..can you tell me anything about his passing .
@@fisgibgbobber I finally got around to buying my first plans and I learned it from his website.
First time viewer. Great channel
Thanks for this video. The speed of the video cutting the chine log notches made it difficult to follow. Please consider a video tutorial on cutting in the chine logs on one of your most popular designs, say for example, the 18 ft Carolinian. Best regards.
Looks like the Pokomoke will sit flat and stable on a mudflat or gently slopped beach like the flat bottom pacific power dories. Handy feature.
I love the lines on these Boats and was hoping to build a nice Boat for the Great Lakes but got deterred by the Regulations , Registration , Requirements , Licensing and Assessment ! .... How much of a Headache is that in this Era of Government Control ? .... Cheers !
This process almost seems backwards. Along the VA coast ive seen many wood flatties rebuilt and from scratch. Never seen a chine installed before planking
I prefer to use your website. FB's business practices have been repugnant. CZcams is no angel but they remain the lessor of two evils so far.
Are there link to video you are referencing?
Not related to chine logs but I am studying up to hopefully build a boat. I have settled on a stitch and glue method but still looking at designs. Would your Californian be considered a deadrise boat and how would it compare to your Pokomoke? Looking to stay under 20' but looking for a good stable fishing boat that can handle some rough waters if needed.
No the Californian is not a deadrise, not even slightly. It's a deep-v sportfisher - lots of power flying over the chop. The Californian and the Pokomoke are seriously different styles of boat.
What do you mean by "handle" rough waters. My flat bottom boats "handle" far rougher water far better than v-bottom. On fact my boats intended for the roughest water are all flat bottom, like this one: spirainternational.com/hp_vald.php
My suggestion is that you watch this video: czcams.com/video/43qNGtqmflI/video.html That'll help you decide which boat you need.
@@tjkid07 I guess I should have asked that differently. I know they are different but what makes it or any other a Chesapeake deadrise? Is it a certain amount of deadrise?
As far as handling rough water well it gets choppy here... just kidding. I know I don't want a flat bottom beating me up and something I would feel safe in if a storm came in while out in a bay or on the ICW. I think the Californian would be the best as far as ease to build compared to ply on frame v hulls.
Thanks. Any opinion out there regarding “floating frame” construction, i.e. the frames are NOT notched for chine logs, sheer clamps, battens, whatever? Frames may be beveled as necessary, longitudinal elements screwed to each un-notched frame.
No thoughts of it and it is not part of any of my designs. Mine are unitized wood and fiberglass composite structures, not traditional wooden boats.
I have interest in plans for a 35 to 45ft dead rise with a 11 to 12 ft beam
Hi Jesse: Sure, send me an email to info@spirainternational.com. BTW, a 35' boat is a lot different than a 45 footer - Need to think that one through.
@@tjkid07 I purchased plans for your dead rise but was unable to download them I sent a email still haven’t heard back
