Guideboat Half Hull Model

Just finished an Adirondack Guideboat made from John Blanchard's plans from Mystic Seaport.

Half Hull Modeling

I just started to get into making half hull boat models.  I got started with a model of the boat "Wave" which I purchased plans from the WoodenBoat store.  It is the first picture shown in this series.  I also got some good tips from Douglas Brooks' tutorial.  I really like his idea when gluing up the wood to include a colored piece of construction paper for the waterline.  It seems too thin but it shows up just perfect.
I also found a great video series on YouTube where Malcolm Crosby (from the Crosby catboat family of boatbuilders in Osterville, Cape Cod) builds half hull models.  Betsy Crosby Thompson has put together great videos of her father building these models.  This is a real treasure as his model are exquisite and he provides all kinds of tips and details how he does it.  Every part of the process is shown too.
I am currently working on a John Blanchard Adirondack guideboat where I purchased the plans from Mystic Seaport. I really like making models of small craft rather than the large yachts
