Sally wanted a small rowboat so we bought a "Stitch and Glue" kit for the Eastport Pram from Chesapeake Light Craft.
With "Stitch and Glue", plywood panels are first "stitched" together with copper wire to form the hull shape. Then the seams are glued with thickened epoxy. You can read more about the process here.
Stitching the Hull - June 22 - 23, 2013
After the hull is fully stitched, the stitching will be tightened up to remove the gaps.
< ------ Gluing the hull is next.
Fiberglass - July 9 - July 22, 2013
< ---- Next is fitting all the stuff that goes inside the boat (and below).
