For "Part 1" of this 42-part series, we revisit our up-close look at the Caledonia Yawl and why we love her...
We were so inspired by the Caledonia Yawl that we decided build one to add to the OCH fleet. The videos in this series will take you from start to finish building a Caledonia Yawl. In Part 1, Geoff Kerr takes us for a spin aboard his 19’ Caledonia Yawl NED LUDD. These boats are easy to build, unusually light and strong, and free from leaks. We are attracted to her lines that are reminiscent of traditional Norwegian work boats. This is a small boat with endless possibilities - and that’s what we are about at OffCenterHarbor.com.
Off Center Harbor is the world's leading video website for high-quality instructional boating videos - with masterclasses on how to build, maintain, and repair boats. The crew of Off Center Harbor also travels the world bringing you aboard hundreds of the best classic boats across the planet.

Hi , I'd love to see the collection of videos you've done on building the Caledonian yawl. I'm building the Ian Ougthred Auk at the moment and would love to try my hand at the CY . Your videos are a great way for me to feel confident in tackling the project , I can only see one video on your youtube page any help much appreciated Lee
Hi - that's great! The Auk is a sweet little boat. If you check the description below the video, there's a link where you can get access to the entire series on Off Center Harbor.
I’ve got the plans (from Iain RIP) but first I’m building a Goat Island Skiff.
Thanks for posting the vid.. I'm interested in building one of these. Why do you prefer the lug over the Gunter rig?
I see this wasn't the builder's vid. Sorry. I am working on my boat while CZcams plays. Ha ha Why does he prefer the lug rig?
Maybe I missed it--is there a centerboard or daggerboard?
Yes, a centerboard in a trunk.
@@offcenterharbor Thanks, it's a well-made video about a very nice design.
The Yols and Fareings which are said to have inspired the styling of the Cal Yawl sailed to windward with a substantial full length keel skeg.
I've been fortunate enough to sail a Chamberlain Alpha Dory in company with a number of Cal Yawls and was impressed with their ability to keep pace!
Is that Eric from my year at IBTC?!
Yes
