Here's a timelapse of my our building a Chesapeake Lightcraft Passagemaker Sailing Dinghy during the great COVID-19 Lockdown of 2020.
It took us 4 months about 8 thousand 5" sanding disks to construct. Enjoy!

I have been looking around at various kits, have limited experience working on a wood project at this level and the standard Passagemaker has really caught my eye... just something about a Pram and this one looks so good to me. I am curious if the epoxy that is shipped with the kit is enough for the build when applying several coats with the objective of not painting ( leaving the all natural look )... or if its just enough volume to just stick it all together and glass it in? Looks like yall did a very good job.... and I am starting to feel more confident that its a kit that I can work with in my back yard ;-)

starting my PMD in December. All of the shipments have arrived. Read the manual and gotta hand it to CLC, great job on the book! I'm a woodworker and have owned/worked on several 40' ers. This project should be pretty straightforward but I can get pretty anal about my work. I think CLC has put together an incredible kit with the PMD and anyone who can read, have a little patience and not be afraid to reach out with questions, can build this amazing little boat.

Sorry, I just saw your comment. I had to order at least 1 more gallon of resin and hardener to complete my build. Due to lack of experience, I wasted a lot early on. At first, I wanted 100% natural look, too, but my many mistakes required paint and I’m glad for it. Looks much better. How did your build turn out?
