Building a scale model wooden boat can teach us many things. In this video I am building a wooden boat model kit scale model of a stitch and glue constructed wood boat and I learn a bit about how wood boats are constructed, and whether I have the right level of interest, ability and desire to potentially build an actual full size wooden boat kit.

This Skerry sailboat model boat kit comes from Chesapeake Light Craft and is scaled down exact version of their actual Skerry boat that is offered as a kit to build a 15 foot sailing boat that looks exactly like this one. Building a boat model kit like this one is a taste of what it could be like to build a full size wood boat kit. If you're considering one of these types of projects, putting together the scale model boat might be a way to help you decide if boat building is in your future!
