  • Jay Jay is an all wood Dudley Dix design Cape Henry 21. We first spotted her racing off Yarmouth in the OGA regatta and wow she turned heads. Owner Brian Johnson showed us around this classic and told how he took more than three years to build her in the garage of his Essex home.

    What a fabulous series of videos. Great people, great boats, and proper talk. None of that TV documentary fakery nonsense.
    Total joy to watch.

    That's one of the loveliest boats on Earth. It's got a very useful wall down the centre to keep the girlfriend on her side and so ensure the longevity of the relationship. You can add the engine from a Dassault mk.1 Mirage to help win races...Cheerio!

    Thanks so much for gathering footage of yourself inside the cabin. For some reason this is something that most people neglect to do. But it's extremely important because potential buyers like myself absolutely need a sense of scale when considering the purchase of a particular sailboat because they want to know how much available space is down below. That being said, your boat is quite lovely. And thanks for sharing. Cheers!

    Love it...grew up on the water in New England- commercial fishing boats in the family- but for the past few years been getting a hankering to get back into boating. Never did anything like this before- Intriguing. I will start on dinghy sail boating, and if this takes 3+ years. I can plan on 5, since I take longer than the average to build anything. My Ducati Super Sport 900 took me 2.5 years to build, and that I am very familiar with (motorcycle) so for me, I am figuring, while I learn the dinghy life, I can see what I might want down the road. Thanks for the inspiration.

    "Go buy a house with a checklist of items and that makes your decision" .. ha ha, maybe 40 years ago. Now your decision is made for you by price low enough and not being out-bid by 10 other buyers. Awesome boat! Extremely impressive. Probably only a few people in the world can build their own sea-worthy boat, just as a weekend project. Outstanding!

You tell your story brilliantly and I hope to have the same degree of satisfaction once I am sailing the coastal waters in the country where I settled. Thank you.

    She is category C rated I believe so good for up to force 6 and waves to 2 metres (6 ft). I have sailed in both and she is quite happy 😊 . So good for coastal sailing, not just lakes. Certainly not blue water though!

    • @maciejkornatowski3026
      @maciejkornatowski3026 4 года назад

      Issue with those is there's huge difference between waves and wind. Most C category boats can handle much stronger winds, its the waves that's the issue, and that will depend on exact place you're using it at.

    There is a 19 ft version called the Cape Cutter 19 made in GRP. Dudley Dix can sell you plans for a plywood Cape Cutter 19 and has just required the right to supply plywood Cape Cutter 19 kits.
    The manufacturer of the GRP Cape Cutter 19 has acquired the right to manufacture a GRP Cape Henry 21.
    The ply CH21 can also be built with bilge keels and Dudley Dix has plans to introduce a bilge keel option for the ply CC19.
    There are even 25 ft and 30 ft+ versions of this boat.
