The result of this search is the Stillwater Boats. The Stillwater Boats are built using a unique new method of cutting and bending plywood that results in a finely shaped hull with no ribs to sand around, no strakes to bevel and minimal fairing. Stillwater Boats are built on a very simple jig of just two station forms that can be set up on sawhorses, bench top or the kitchen table, if you're so inclined. The advantages of this construction method are many. First, the Stillwater Boats use only four pieces of wood for the basic hull.
Fewer pieces mean less time.
There are also fewer joints to work, and possibly fail, over the long term. Secondly, there is very little fairing work to do, unlike a stripper where the whole boat has to be sanded inside and out in order to fair all of those little strips into each other. Thirdly, the finishing process is much easier without all the edges of a lapstrake boat to deal with. All methods have their advantages and disadvantages. What Stillwater Boats offer is a quick, lightweight and simple method that results in a nicely shaped hull.
