This saddle stand is absolutely gorgeous.  There was no damage done during shipping.  I know that she is going to love it.  Thank you for all your time and effort, especially with the short time period.  It has been a pleasure doing business with you.  I hope you have a happy holiday and new year.

This nice little canoe is 16′ long and easily handles 2 adults with gear.  The seats can also be set up for a single paddler if you prefer.  It is very stable by canoe standards and easy for a first time builder to build from out kit.  All plywood side and bottom panels are cut to exact size so you just glue the joints together to form the length, stitch it all together, and start your epoxy work.  All timbers in the kit are shipped slightly long so that you can trim to exact size on your boat.  The deck and bulkhead plywood are also a small bit oversize to be trimmed to exact size and, in the case of the deck to the style you prefer.  This is a nice boat to build that you can be proud of.  Our kit comes with cypress timbers and marine okuome plywood.  Mahogany spacer blocks like the ones shown here can be included in lieu of cypress if you prefer at no additional cost.

Shipping time typically will be two to three weeks.  We can also provide epoxy and fiberglass kits to your requirements if so desired.

The PD Racer is the easiest boat in the world to build with club members around the world.  We have named our Puddle Duck The Texas Duck

and like all PDR’s is the simplest boat there is to build.  This boat design is a a collaboration between Michael Storer and J O Woodworks.  What will make this one even easier is that all the pieces are already cut out and all you do is glue or screw them together and go sailing.  This boat will be absolutely class legal so you will have no problem getting a PDR registration number.  J O Woodworks is an authorized kit builder for the PDR.  Currently we  have one primary sail option whick is the sprit sail but a lug sail design can be easily done and we do have that sail available.  We even have the Texas Flag  sail option available.  This kit is now ready.  Please feel free to contact me for purchase info and options.  This will make it a great winter project ready to set sail in the spring.                             THE PROTOTYPE IS HULL NUMBER  507     HERE IS A PICTURE OF ME SAILING IT RECENTLY.  AND FOR ALL YOU NON TEXANS OUT THERE DON’T WORRY, THERE WILL BE A SAIL OPTION IN A SOLID COLOR INSTEAD OF THE TEXAS FLAG.

The Quick Canoe is now ready for you.  This is one of the easiest boats there is to build.  Our kit consists of all the wooden parts you will need to put this together.  All you need is glue, some epoxy, a little fiberglass tape, a few screws, and paint.  We even include the wire ties to keep the bow and stern together while assembling.   The other ingredient is YOU, having a great time on the water in the canoe.  You will need very few tools for this.  A simple handsaw can be used for all cuts necessary although a jig saw is helpful.  A cordless drill would be good but you could do it with a hand screwdriver if necessary.  Duct tape and a few spring clamps will help with assembly.  All parts are labeled so you will know exactly what they are and the labels have dimensions on them just in case a label should come off.  This is the perfect quick and easy family project.  Everybody can help and the kids can tell their friends what they did!!   

Now for the technical stuff.  The basic hull comes in two pieces for the bottom and four for the sides.

The gunwales, inwales and keel come in three pieces each.  The center piece of each is scarfed on both ends and the other pieces on one end.  We will include a piece of aluminum angle that will work as a clamping jig for the scarfs.  Be sure and cover this with plastic tape to prevent the wood sticking to the aluminum.  I recommend starting the gluing process early on so that all pieces will be glued by the time you need them for construction into the boat.

The skeg pieces will fit your boat perfectly prior to applying the keel.  After it is all glued up you can cut it to any final shape you would like.  A gentle curve works well.

There are five pieces for each seat.  All except the framing pieces are cut to fit.  The seat supports are ready for the installation of the framing.  No intricate cuts are required.

Believe me.  It doesn’t get any easier than this!!!

BASIC KIT WITH EITHER ULTRAPLY XL OR EXTERIOR PINE Including complete bound set of plans $445 plus shipping 

Marine fir, okoume, and miranti also available at additional cost.  I do not believe this should be necessary for this particular boat.

Just got the tiller, looks GREAT!!  Thanks so much for getting it to me so quickly.  My old one was really giving me a hard time so the new one makes me very happy.  Thanks again.

Please note that if ordered with a tiller or other product the $5 shipping will be refunded as it can all be shipped together.

Now for the technical stuff.  The basic hull comes in either two or four pieces for the bottom and four for the sides.   A four piece bottom is a little more difficult to build but the shipping cost is considerably less. 

The gunwales, inwales and keel come in three pieces each.  The center piece of each is scarfed on both ends and the other pieces on one end.  We will include a piece of aluminum angle that will work as a clamping jig for the scarfs.  Be sure and cover this with plastic tape to prevent the wood sticking to the aluminum.  I recommend starting the gluing process early on so that all pieces will be glued by the time you need them for construction into the boat.

There are five pieces for each seat.  All except the framing pieces are cut to fit.  The seat supports are ready for the installation of the framing.  No intricate cuts are required.

The transom and it’s associated framing is all cut with the necessary bevels.  Just the side pieces need to be cut to length.  The bow and transom knees will have to be cut to fit.  This too is a very simple straight cut.

Believe me.  It doesn’t get any easier than this!!!

BASIC KIT WITH FOUR PIECE BOTTOM WITH EITHER ULTRAPLY XL OR EXTERIOR PINE Including complete bound set of plans $445 plus shipping   PLEASE CONTACT US IF YOU WOULD PREFER THE TWO PIECE BOTTOM.

Marine fir, okoume, and miranti also available at additional cost.  I do not believe this should be necessary for this particular boat unless weight is a critical factor.
