My HomeBuilt Tolman Skiff

[guldam]

Yep, I built this Tolman Skiff. And a bunch of other folks have built and are building their own. There are three Tolman Skiff models, the Standard, Widebody and Jumbo. Folks have built Standards as short as 18 feet, and the Jumbo up to 26 feet.

Nice ride! looks like you put a lot of work into it.
How long did the whole job take?

Took me 3 1/2 years. I lost a year due to my first child being born and I lost another six months after getting sick. But the boat is on the water and life is mighty fine, indeed.
