If you want to know how to build a boat (or bike camper / caravan!), there is no better way than drawing from the experience of others. Humans have been building boats since the dawn of time and the knowledge which has been accumulated over millennia has brought untold benefits to us all.
Here is the wikipedia entry for boat building: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat_bu...
Innovation always comes by taking existing knowledge and techniques and putting a unique spin on them to achieve different results.
Geniuses see solutions to problems in a way that others can't and I believe Benjy passes this test with flying colours. We are very happy to spread the word about his fantastic boat building plans.

my favourites are the Fliptails, because I found the patterns searching for modern plans similar to the 19th c "Berthon Boats," which in turn I'd discovered researching Victorian era knitting patterns (which I rewrite/redesign)!! Which of the designs do you think would be THE EASIEST, though, for someone with no woodworking/boatbuilding experience to tackle? (except a goat barn I built in the 1970's!)

As soon as you mentioned that the boat designer lived in France I knew immediately whom you referred to! I think the Slidavan is the most original and inspiring camper in decades! The sheer genius of it's design and construction, remarkable strength, light weight and versatility are unequalled. I was really pleased to see you promote the Slidavan and little sister the Foldavan, as these are truly unique in every way. Your sincere enthusiasm shone through as you spoke of his amazing designs.

I built the 7' Fliptail. I chose it because it looked a little more attractive to me than the Origami. The time suggested to build it is the same for the Origami, but it took me a bit longer because of the laminated hoops. You have to build a jig, which is simple enough, but ripping boards to make thin strips and then laminating them in the jig took some time including waiting for epoxy to cure. But it was worth it to me, the end result was a beautiful, lightweight, folding boat that will fit on our Ericson 27 with ease. The plans were excellent and straightforward. I did have a question during the process, and the designer was quick and helpful with the response. I discovered the boats from your earlier video when you built one. Thanks, Chris!

Hello Chris! Really nice video! Myself, I opt for the origamy for the following reasons: the soid side panels are great when I want to moor next to a pier which is covered with shells or other sharp object. It also uses the least moviable parts when unfolding it and I have an idea how to make it in a way that it folds itself in the air when we lift aboard... once I build i will send you a pic/video.:)

Hi Tibor! We loved our Origami. The barnacle covered pier isn't a problem if you drop an anchor and use it to keep the dinghy off the side - that's the way we did it and it worked well. Enjoy your build and we look forward to seeing your boat and hearing about how much fun you had! 😊

I like the idea . I do see limits of it such as not able to use for snorkelling as you could never get back in. An inflatable dingy can’t sink, well less likely , therefore a good back up to a life raft. Docking with other boats at a pier I would worry it could get damaged. Guess you could take it out the water and lock it up. Stern anchor or fouled anchor would worry about chain on the side or even just leaning over the side for inspection. I do like the idea it’s so light most dingy s you can hardly pick up.

Hey Chris, it would be interesting to see your take on a non-conventional life raft. It should be dual service, in that it can be used as a daily sailing rowing and motoring dinghy, but also as a life raft in a SHTF scenario - and it should be cheap to build.

@SailingBritaly 4 жыл бұрын

That’s a brilliant design brief for a dinghy: If I only had some spare time, I’d love to work on that. Time is a very rare commodity at the moment though!

@joeblow1942 4 жыл бұрын

Sailing Britaly When you get a chance, check out the Portland Pudgy. It’s a rowing/motoring/sailing dinghy thats also a life raft. They are expensive though. Another idea is to take a regular hard sailing dinghy and attach inflatable PVC tubes to the outside of the hull just below the gunwales like the option Walker Bay dinghy has. The inflatable tubes protect your dinghy and your boats hull, but also greatly increase the stability of the dinghy in rough seas. In fact, it’s really hard to capsize your dinghy with the tubes on. Some people are using the heavy duty tubes meant for rolling boats on the beach. Anyway, I’m going to set up my dinghy this way and I think this is the kind of thing that’s right up your alley too. Thanks for all your great content!

The prolific and ingenious boat architect Phil Bolger designed such a boat. It was made from foam sheet with very thin plywood panels laminated to the inside and outside. Thus highly buoyant. It might be impossible to find that design nowadays, but I bet Benji could take that idea and run with it.

I have built a couple of small boats by the stitch and glue method... I want to like these collapsible boats but I would be afraid of them being too fragile for day to day use. Probably the best use for them would be to carry inside small aircraft. But on the whole, for anything I would use the folding boat for, I think I would rather have an inflatable and just carry the pump or a portable air compressor. On the plus side, you should be able to make temporary repairs to the fabric covered boats using duct tape.

@SailingBritaly 4 жыл бұрын

Stitch & glue boats are great (On my infinite impossible to ever finish everything in one lifetime to-do list). It may be counterintuitive, but you would have to try very hard to tear the material on these boats. We had 4 adults in ours and everything was hunky-dory. You can drag an Origami across concrete (There is a sacrificial wooden strip along the keel and the skegs on the sides keep the material off the floor). After owning and using ours fro 4 years, the reality is that they are far more robust than they look. Cheers, Chris

I have seen his boats before on DuckWorks, they are ingenious. I would like to know if anyone who has one can comment on how comfortable they are to row sitting on the floor? I used to have a small inflatable and it was awful to row long distances sitting on the floor. However, the design of the Origami and some of his other designs look perfect for an apartment dweller like myself who misses being able to sail and row and who do not enjoy inflatables.

@SailingBritaly 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Robb, having owned (and rowed) inflatables and having used our Origami for 4 years I can tell you tat there is no comparison between them when it comes to rowing. The Origami glides through the water with ease and tracks very well. As for sitting on the floor, I found it quite a comfortable rowing position with my feet braced against the transom. Alternatively it's easy enough to sit on a fender or jerry can if that's what you prefer. We spent 23 consecutive nights at anchor on our honeymoon and at that time we had no outboard, so our only means of getting ashore and back to the boat was by rowing the Origami. I reckon this made the trip even more special as we were so in tune with mother nature. Having the ability to store your boat in a 4" wide space is advantageous for a multitude of reasons, wherever you live. Cheers, Chris

@RobbsHomemadeLife 4 жыл бұрын

@@SailingBritaly Chris, thanks so much for the helpful reply. If you can brace your feet against the transom then it should be a lot more comfortable. I love to row almost as much as I love to sail, the Origami looks like a wonderful design. Years ago I had a Folbot which I placed behind my couch and the ends stuck ut. The only drawback was it was heavy and of course, if I did any fishing the boat had to be cleaned twice or the apartment smelled of bait. :) I think the Origami would be the perfect boat for apartment dwellers like myself who do not like inflatables.

I would say the Fliptail or Origami are best for sailing. The Fliptail has a double skin and therfore remains buoyant even if it were to capsize or get completely flooded. The Origami is single skinned - I used to take a couple of fenders which acted as seats but which could double up as floatation if needed. We did take four fully grown adults ashore in the Origami once and it we could ahve got another one in there - it's much stronger than you think. Cheers, Chris 👍
