Why is stitch-and-glue boatbuilding so popular?

Any number of construction methods will produce a beautiful boat. But for the backyard builder with limited experience and a tight budget, the choice is not so complicated. Traditional plank-on-frame and cold-molded construction require complicated lofting and building molds--to say nothing of expensive tooling and lots of time. Stitch-and-glue construction, on the other hand, can produce the same results with a substantial savings in time and money. The process is quicker, easier, uses fewer parts, and produces a boat that is much easier to maintain--without the building molds and with only the simplest lofting. For tools, you need little more than a circular saw, a sander/polisher/grinder, a block plane, a framing square, a level, and a tape measure.

Sam Devlin has elevated stitch-and-glue boatbuilding to an artform, and his graceful designs have attracted the attention of backyard builders across the country. Here is all you need to know to build the boat of your dreams, whether it's a 7-foot dinghy or a 40-foot power cruiser. Devlin's Boatbuilding: How to Build Any Boat the Stitch-and-Glue Way shares the wisdom of his 16 years of experience designing, building, and helping others build his fleet of small sail- and powerboats.

It's all here, from choosing a design and setting up shop to painting the finished hull and launching. There is also a gallery of Devlin's designs and a detailed appendix listing sources for tools and other materials.

Great purchase! Highly recommend!
Color: Yellow Gold, Size: 1 cttw
Love these earrings! They have beautiful brilliance and sparkle AND I feel the setting is relatively substantial. They have a screw on back and the back is not small and flimsy like some earring backs I have seen. I purchased the 1 carat pair and love them. Highly recommend!

Beautiful and timeless!

The earrings are beautiful. I was hesitant to go with lab grown over natural but the quality of the earrings have genuinely changed my outlook on pab grown diamonds. These were made with 14kt screw on backs and have given me peace of mind. These were purchased to be worn in the 2nd ear piercings. They look stunning next to my natural halo diamond earrings.

Great quality
Color: Yellow Gold, Size: 0.5 cttw
Beautiful earrings, but I would definitely get the largest 1ct option if an adult plans to wear them. The smaller sizes would be perfect special gift for a child.
