Melitele - Building a 16ft Sailing Boat

My name is Jamie, and I invite you to follow the creation and use of an inexpensive 16 foot sailing boat by me, an amateur first-time builder without a professional workshop. Like many of you I am in full time employment, have a mortgage to pay and a young family to raise and spend time with. I chose this boat design because I believe I can complete it within a reasonable timescale but fitting in with my existing life commitments. Melitele is being built from Campion Sail & Design's very affordable yet comprehensive "Apple 16" plans. Despite being inexpensive and easy to build, this is a fairly pretty boat with a reputation for very good sailing qualities. Videos to this channel will not be as fast-paced nor impressive as some other boat building channels, but I hope the viewer finds them interesting and eventually decides to build their own first boat also. If I can do it, so can you!
