Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding - Time Lapse 

The MOST FUN of any boating building 'thing' in which I've ever been involved. This video is true and fun.

God Bless You Sailors! Amazing video! Best, Paul

wow... these guys work soooooo fast... LOL Joking aside... this is a great video. Many times I wondered how these art pieces were made, specially centuries ago. Well... here I got the answer Thanks Rob

Great Craftsmanship. You guys are amazing what can I say.

love the music!!! great boats

lovely work *

Beautiful work, I do this in miniature and the craftsmanship on display here (even in warp speed) is incredible!

Excellent video.

I have seen many boat building videos. It seems there are several techniques to build one. Most of the time the spine and ribs are built first not separately.

A fine example of "Motion is Not Progress." Great Music!

Awesome song!!! :D

this video response was inspired by your video. hope you enjoy. we certainly enjoyed yours. regards, bear family of wooden boat builders.

would have loved to have seen the finished product. Looks like it might be nice.

hi just wanna ask what camera did you intall for this thanks much appreciated.

I wanted to see the whole thing till the finish. and the music was great.

@JohnDamenify Yes, I attended Clover Park Voc. Tech in Tacoma back in the mid 70's. I was training to be an aircraft mechanic. I realize that building a wooden boat isn't something that is done quickly anymore than building an airplane from scratch is a fast or simple operation. I was not criticizing. I understand it and I think you would agree that there is a lot of motion that would not be called "Lean".

well done

I own a manufacturing company (The Bogert Group) and from my perspective, I was amazed at all the non-value added motion going on.

@JohnDamenify Roger that! So where did you go to school?

as fast as you guys work you could have holloed out thousands of logs for conoes ;P jkz all kidding aside, fantastic ship, A+

@Bogibar I was training to be an aircraft mechanic too ! I now wat you mean , It looked like 80% of all movements were just videofilling :)

erm, does any of you guys know where i can learn this boatbuilding? i have limited carpenterexperience and live in belgium, though i'm willing to go overseas to learn this. cheers, lads

I never ff a time lapse before ;)

I'd love to know what the music is? Band/ album?

Why didn't you make that thing out of Live Oak?

Even with time lapse...it's like watching paint dry!

@HellHound60248 There's a lot of what you would call 'pre-production' work to lay everything down correctly and they are setting themselves up for success for the first 2 minutes...

wow beautiful (nerdy comment from a boat nerd). this centreboarder hull looks a lot like a nz mullet boat

@Bogibar , ever bin to school yourself ?

whats the song?

Whats the name of the song? I love it

I've had this question for just about ever, how does one get wooden planks to bend to fit the hull?

planning on building a boat almost entirely by myself... not this size but not a very small one either somehow I am quite confident I can achieve that in much less time... watching this though I must be underestimating the effort ??! Its gonna be a sandwich construction with wood and fiberglass(epoxy) with a small engine (i dont care for high speed in boating). Anyone else think this is possible not taking anything more than hull engine/steering and floors into account?

What do you do with your wooden boat building degree? That would be great to learn such a craft, but could you actually be hired?

quanto costa una barca uguale a quella ?? grazie per la risposta .

👍👍👍👍

wow! im an german guy and made my carpenter here.. its verry cool but my favourite job is boatbuilder.. for this job i would like to go there and learn english...! famous! sorry for my horrible english...

Man, you guys can really move.

we never saw a finished boat? did it float? did you all sail it? did you all sell it? was it made for someone? ALLOT OF QUESTIONS NOT ANSWERED!!

I now need a nap.

4 Months. Interesting. Too many people standing around, freeze the vid at intervals and many of the "Workers" are not working. Maybe this is a teaching thing but many are not participating in it.Why was the cam moved so far away? Looks interesting and of course uses old school technology, including the wide beam to help with stability - we assume it is a sailing vessel with a center trunk or dagger board type keel . The monk boat is also interesting. V fwd sextion to a flat stern profile - should be fast and stable.

I am in the same position, j3. Fairly accomplished woodworker no experience with boats and I've fallen in love with catboats. I want to tackle a small one to start oh..say 14 ft. I tried the yahoo discussion group but there has been no posts since 2007. Anyone know of a patient group who can tolerate my for simple and sometimes stupid questions? I just want to learn.

@JohnDamenify You might be interested in what an old aircraft mechanic has done with himself. Go out and look up "The Bogert Group".

boatbuilders use chairs?

the bald guy in the blue sweater appears to be the most knowledgeable and productive,

so much movement for so little progress

so many people creating this boat,.. mini "Noah Ark"

ok folks were going to start this class by whittling an oak tree into a toothpick...

....well, I know it's wood....so it should end up floating....sometime.

Y U NO FINISH BOAT? Wanta SEEE

It is not a fast thing to do if one thing is diffident on onside of the hull then the other you might not have started to build it.

at 3:10 it´s getting interesting

Measure once, curse twice.

That's like teaching ppl the most labour-intensive, ridiculous method imaginable. If you want to waste time with a group of fellow half-wits that'd be the way to do it, but if you want to make something that is reliable and will take you places, keep googling :)

2:00 Finally they start fucking building. I think.

2x

Damm! Guys, you are so fast - I can´t follow you...

Four months and you haven't even finished the hull??? Too many cups of tea I suppose...

Yall work too fast, l'd just be in the way.

Im watching sesame street.

yall are working way too hard on building a boat. What are you doing?

11:30 and no finished product... what a waste of time!

Wood boat school? The wood boat industry died in the 50's just where are they going to get a job LOL. Hey, I like wood boats built several took a long time too, no way to sell them because the excessive work time spent. Unfortunately, although it is an art and a worthwhile endeavor no one would buy one because there is this new product called fiberglass. Wood boats not a viable buissness I crossed over to glass I know what I am talking about, no one buys a wood boat.

If these guys were working for me, I'd sack the lot of them for poor performance. Hate videos with work not completed.

What a waste of my time watching that, maybe they should stick to building one boat at a time
