Kits for our plywood boats have been available in USA for more than 10 years. This has had mixed success, depending on who was cutting the kits. Following on the sale of the company that had the rights to cut our kits, the quality of service deteriorated to a level that was no longer tolerable, so I rescinded the cutting rights. That brought us to the current arrangement of marketing the kits ourselves and sub-contracting the cutting to
Plywood Dixi Dinghy, fun little 3:1 dinghy to row/motor/sail.
The are currently preparing to cut a large kit, comprising 61 sheets of plywood, for a

We have also sent them an order for a smaller but nevertheless substantial kit. This is for a

I have reworked the panel files for these large kits so that all parts that are larger than a sheet of plywood are jointed with jigsaw joints. These joints are easy to assemble and produce very accurate panels. Click to see the full list. If there is a plywood design for which you want a kit, please email Dudley and ask for a price. It may take a week or two to rework the panel files to suit the Chesapeake Light Craft format then get a price for the kit but we will get that info to you as speedily as we can.
If you are outside of the USA, you can still order one of our kits from our suppliers in other countries .
