    Just finished building a 14 foot Whitehall, but I've liked the Penobscot 17 design for years. Excellent video.

    Greetings from Ottawa, Canada. I'm slowly starting to work on my Penobscot 17 and find your vid very informative. Thank you for posting.
  • Lovely to watch this - an easily driven hull. Interesting that the centrboard case is offset and not directly over the keel. I would have varnished the transom, but the paint job is also first rate.
  • I loved this! I’m gearing up to build the Penobscot 14 and this was super helpful. I can’t wait for the next episode!! Great work.

    The stern is the back of the boat. Your first cut was the stem, front of the boat! Good luck with it all🙂

    Was going out to Monhegan and encountered a family sailing one of these back to the island with all their groceries, the swells were so tall you couldn't see the boat when it was in the trough, amazing

    Great choice lovely lines should go like stink. Oak branches and stumps will provide the necessary shaped knees you need, should you want grown timber the correct shape.But nothing wrong with laminated stock.

    This is nice, building a sail boat like this is my dream, looking forward of your new episodes, good luck bro!

    Question for ya: I'm in the process of cutting out the frames and have most of them done, but looking at them they seem awfully small, or "shallow", i.e., like the finished boat will have very little freeboard. They just don't look like they'll amount to a substantial boat, even though all the vids and pics I've seen on the internet indicate that it is a reasonably sized dinghy. Is this just a sort of optical illusion that disappears once they are set up on the jig?
