Flyer 135

I have finally started the CNC work for the flyer 135. She’ll be a 16′ step hydro made of wood and epoxy. I have always loved the lines on this boat and hope that anyone interested in seeing her come to life will spread the word that Inner Bay Boats is building a wooden boat that is rare and should be very fast. The motor will be a 4 cyl GMC based block and I will have to purchase a new transmission. I have the old motor sitting in my smaller shop at home and  have always wondered what to do with it so, this will be the motor’s new purpose after a little re-building.

I am not sure how this blog works.  Really just getting into it so, that it will improve my site’s traffic. My first web-site had tons of traffic until Google took over everything and now it seems they can decide who has the traffic and who does not.

Anyway, Gotta Go.

I’ll try to get some pics up and let all you know how things are going up here in the great Canadian white north.

    I have a similar theory myself and have recently started construction of the flyer in my basement woodshop.

    I’m not a boat builder by trade (I’m a Project Manager) but do have a passion for working with wood with experience in building cabinets and furniture, however this will be my first wooden boat hull.

    I’ve constructed all of the frame members already from a mix of 3/4″ marine plywood (curved portions) ½” ply for gussets and white ash for the bottom of the frame members. I am hoping to put the keels and chines in the wkd if time permits. I will be attempting to cover this boat with ¼” marine plywood, with an additional layer of 1/8” mahogany for looks, all wrapped up in a fiberglass skin.

    For power, I’m hoping to go out of the box and am going to try a 140HP liquid cooled high performance motorcycle engine 1st (a left over from a previous project).

    Not sure if you have finished your boat by now or not, but there is a video of this very boat design in action available on youtube.com

    Type in crandall flyer in the search query- it’s the 1st one to pop up.
    I believe this boat was recently built from a set of 3D plans that are available for sale on the net- I know I’ve seen 3 or 4 pictures of this very boat being built that were posted alongside the plans.
