Has anyone here built their own boat? I'm not talking about a 32' sloop. I just want a small dingy style boat that i can mount a trolling motor on. Maybe 9 or 10 feet long and all wood.

I built boats for around 5 yrs in Warren Rhode Island, worked in the prototype department making the plugs (first copy) of sailboats/powerboats etc after which the plug would be sent to the mold shop to have the mold made for mass production.
How can I help?
