This is a video of the assembly of the HMS Bounty’s Jolly Boat by Artesania Latina. The HMS Bounty set sail from England in August of 1787 on a Botanical mission. The famous mutiny occurred in July of 1789, nearly 2 years later, where Captain Bligh and 18 other sailors were set adrift in the Jolly Boat designed for a maximum of 15 people. They were given minimal supplies. Captain Bligh and his men sailed the subject open boat 3,618 nautical miles to the Dutch settlement on Timor, part of today’s Indonesia

Great video, Ken. Well structured, well narrated, and well filmed. Just ordered this kit from Artesania Latina, and I am sure your video will be very helpful for my own build. Many thanks! Here's hoping my result can come somewhat close to your beautiful little boat.

Thanks for the complement, and good luck on your build. The Journey is half the fun.

I’m working on this now and this video helps! This is my first time making a model boat and it is quite fun and challenging!

@ken_boats Год назад

That was my response after building my first boat (it was fun and challenging). I think this is a good first model (not simple but do-able). I'm glad my video was of some value to you. I have found the build logs on modelshipworld.com to be most useful. I have used them for several other models I have built (lots of discussion and pictures). There are several Bounty Jolly Boats logs completed and in work. They can be found under "member's build logs" for "kit build logs for subjects built from 1751 - 1800". You can browse or search this collection for Bounty Jolly boats. MSW does not require you to register or pay a fee to use their site, unless you want to post a build log. Ken

Good afternoon, my name is Cristiano and for about 2 years I have been looking for a boat to build on a full scale in the style of large navigations. I was looking for something up to 8 meters with 1 mast and up to 3 sails. My intention is to go on small excursions, staying overnight in the sheltered sea or on beaches. In this search I came across your video about the HMS Bounty Jolly boat. I looked for his plan and couldn't find it and finally I came to ask for a better quality photo of the panel in the manual that comes with the design of the keel and caves, so I could start my project. I would be grateful if you could contact me.

Using a model boat kit may be a bad choice as a model for building a real boat. Model boats only appear as real boats, but lack all the complexity needed to make a real boat. And, sadly this kit is titled as HMS bounty, but I have received comments that show it is too small to be the actual boat they used. I am sure there are actual drawing available on line for the true HMS bounty Jolly boat. Good luck - Ken

Beautiful build. I sent a link of your Titanic lifeboat to a friend who is having issues with the planking and making it conform to the ribs. Lovely work.👏👏👏👏

@ken_boats Год назад

Thanks for the complement. I hope your friend can benefit from my example. As I work to get better at planking, I find there are many methods to achieve a well planked hull. I think the best technique depends on what an individual is comfortable with and the hull contours. - Ken

@wolfkaulen82 Год назад

Ah she turned out quite a beauty. Great work Ken! Really happy whenever I see a new video of yours popping up :)

@ken_boats Год назад

Thanks. It was a fun build for me, and I am glad you enjoyed. I've already started the next boat. I will not focus the video on planking so much, which will make it shorter. - Ken

Enjoying your build of this Jolly boat and like the detail, you go into of the hiccups you are having on the way. As I see you are a builder of quite a few models. I have just finished building my first model of the Concord Stagecoach. I have also watched a few videos of this Jolly Boat build and it is interesting there are always problems that the model encounters. I did believe this is set up deliberately by Artesania Latina so we have to learn how to think and improve the builds we are doing as re: the Stagecoach, halfway through following instructions there were virtually no instructions! I have a question and that is besides making one, where did you purchase the swivel-mounted keel holder and what is it's proper name?? That is just a great invention and just to have one like yours and that would make life so much easier. regards Ken

@ken_boats Год назад

Thanks for the encouragement. I looked at models of the Concord Stagecoach. I looks like a nice model. The device you ask about is made by Amati, and is called a Keel Klamper, sold by several outlets. A simple web search should find it. - Ken

@GaryPArmstrong 11 месяцев назад

Hi Ken I made my own Keel Clamper and it works, so, happy now.

@paddyohare1223 Год назад

Great job Ken, really enjoyed seeing how you worked out all the challenges in this build.

@ken_boats Год назад

Thanks 👍 . Each new boat I build has a little more complexity and gives me more experience. Thanks for the encouragement. - Ken

Looks great Ken. Thanks for sharing. 😎🇨🇦

@ken_boats Год назад

Thanks for watching. I enjoy building these boats, and I am glad that others enjoy the craft as well. My pleasure. - Ken

@donsunden5906 Год назад

thank you ken it was fun to watch im thinking about building a boat.

@ken_boats Год назад

This craft has been fun for me. I watch what other model boat builders do, in their videos, and on build logs (modelshipworld.com/forum/130-build-logs-for-ship-model-kits-by-era-launch-date/) I am glad it was fun for you as well. - Ken

I think you're ready for the Constitution now, Ken.

@ken_boats Год назад

I am still working my way towards the ships of the line. I have too much to learn before I attempt your suggestion! But thanks for the encouragement (as clint Eastwood says "a man has to know his limitations"). My planking is getting better. I will next be focusing on masts and rigging. After I finish my current build, the Scottish Fifie, I will be building the Model Shipways’ cross section of the USS Constitution (kind of what you suggested :-) which focuses on masts et al. I also have purchased Occre's model of Shackleton's Endurance which was a great true-life adventure. Too many good boats and too little time. But it is a joy to work on boats! Ken

@Darryl603 Год назад

@@ken_boats Love Eastwood! I hope you video the Constitution cross section. It would be interesting to see. I'm working on Occre's Albatros now. Hope to see you soon. Thanks Ken

The after mahogany parts that you referred to as a “Thwart” are actually the “stern sheets.”

@ken_boats Год назад

I found the instructions often named parts incorrectly. Some names must have been lost in translation - Ken

@Lt.GonvilleBromhead Год назад

@@ken_boats Not least the fact that it's not a jolly boat but a long boat or launch. They wouldn't have fit all of Bligh's loyal men in a jolly boat! I believe they originally intended to but it wasn't seaworthy and too small. Thanks for the video too; it really has helped because of a lack of decent instructions and the paint scheme is fantastic.

@sharonshaddix3287 Год назад

Excellent ! ! !

@ken_boats Год назад

Thanks. It was a fun exercise, and I am glad you enjoyed it as well. Next, I will build the Scottish Fifie. Then I will graduate to the more complex 3 masted boats. These builds will likely take a year or more to build and film. - Ken
