I finally got started on my cedar strip boat this weekend. Putting all these strips together is slow and will take a little longer to build than my first plywood boat. I will try and keep you posted with the build as get more done. I am building a big guy 3 panel fishing boat out of 1 inch cedar strips. The boat will be a 16 footer x 31.5 inches at the sheer with a bottom width of 26 inches. The sides will be 10 inches high with a 75 degree flare. It will have approximately 4 foot stripped decks with an 8 foot open cockpit if I am able to complete it. I am making the panels out of the cedar strips and will then build it in the stitch and glue manner. ET
Here is my trailer I just had made. I put the truck rack on it this weekend.

The bottom is all glued up and ready to sand.
