Dont let not having the "proper" machinery slow you down. All of this can be done by hand or call your local cabinet shop and ask if they can do a run for you to make your planks the all the same size.
Persistence is the key for sure. I got the sense of this during one of Jimmy's IG stories. A short and silent clip of Jimmy using Tony's plane. No talking, nothing sped up, just the scraping sounds. An effort of leveling the entire surface of the boat bottom, one sliver of wood per hand stroke. It dawned on me that Jimmy makes it look fast and easy in his YT videos. The sped up clips, the quick cuts, the frequent videos. Jimmy's the master blaster. But in reality, Jimmy's super power is persistence. The dogged determination to keep moving forward. You don't get to be the Godfather by sitting on the couch. ❤️❤️❤️
It's so refreshing to hear someone talk about their mistakes, the things that bothered them, the frustrations with progress, etc. Especially from someone as gifted and learned as you. So often these types of videos make it look like its so easy and it came together without issue.
I appreciate how you continually emphasize the challenges and hard work that went into the build and the persistence it requires to finish it correctly without coming across like a braggart like it was no big deal. It's this humble but inspiring attitude that demonstrates how great of a mentor, as well as a maker, you really are.
What is the best thing one person can do for another? Inspire them, and that is what you have done here and with a lot of your other builds Jimmy. Thanks man!!
Jimmy, thanks for the reminder on being dedicated to long term projects. I've got a '65 VW bug that was flooded in hurricane Harvey. The restoration is about 75-80% complete, but I've let it go too long without working on it. I love the car, and it deserves to run again. So, thanks for the reminder. And beautiful work, by the way.
I must say thats a beautiful little boat, well done for sticking with it and a very very well done for using the old wood to give it the lovely character that new wood just wouldn't have done.
Thank you for a very informative and entertaining video about a classic craft you don't see anymore. My grandfather had a georgous wood speed boat that we used to enjoy as kids in the 60's. Reminded me of happy times. Merry Christmas.
You've been important since Fleas , never missed anything you produced. It's been wonderful Thank you for being there and all you've done to educate us.
Great Build - Really Enjoyed! I think boat building is woodworking "un"-squared x 10 + art. Kudos to anyone with the skills and patience to pull this off.
12/26/22. Yes! The 'Porch Floor Boat'!! Jimmy, what a ton of work! May to December, 7 months, wow! You have commitment! The boat is beautiful! Love watching you use your well equipped shop, tools, camera lighting, close up shots & voice-over technique to present this build/educational project to we YT viewers! Thx for all your efforts for this particular episode, but also for all other videos during 2022. Great content for we tool loving, wood/weld project enthusiasts. A+ Jimmy! So stay safe & carry on! 👍👍👍🛠🪚🎅🍷😊
DiResta reminds me so much of my new yorker friend that passed away from a traffic accident years ago. he was like if new york become a single person and started playing World of Warcraft lol. i miss telling him that Phoenix was bigger than NYC and watching his brain melt as he went nuts explaining how wrong i was. RIP in pepperonis, Carmack!
Just taking a break away from the festive-tech-support duties of a son visiting his parents. Thought I'd enjoy the first part of this gorgeous boat build! Thanks Jimmy, and happy hols to you and yours! 💜🤍 🎄
I built a similar sized rowing boat with sliding seats between 2019-20, this brought back some happy build memories but I seem to have forgotten the hours and hours of sanding. Abranet saved me a lot of sanding time on the epoxy when it was all I could get during covid lockdown. That Shinto sawfile is a great piece of kit and certainly lives up to its name as the wood eraser. There is a side handled version as well.
I've done several big builds. They really test your metal. It feels great seeing someone put in the effort and show the journey. The big jobs are not for quitters. Great job. Happy Holidays.
I play your channel in my shop, I caught myself stopping grabbing a seat, putting off what I'm doing and enjoying watching your videos, lol but yes always finish what you start!!! Great video as usual #2023
In English work and continued here in Australia, Traditionally the keel is level from 2/3 boat length to the transom. Your fishtail will probably get damaged in use if not careful. There is a lot of work in strip planking. More than people realise. That's why amateurs get disillusioned. They are under the impression it is easy until the sanding starts. That dinghy should row well being skinny. Nice job Jimmy. Next you have to try clinker! That will test you, but a boat that size should take 120 hours. I have built dozens so have a bit of experience! See thumbnail. Merry Christmas everyone! Jimmy you would like the Australian woodenboat festival held in Hobart in February. I wish people gave me free stuff, maybe I should make a video!
definitely resonates with me about how you really need to commit to a project like this... I helped build a cedar strip canoe once and really was not prepared for how much time it took.
Coming along nicely. I like the look of the reclaimed wood. You will absolutely want to glass the transom and wrap it around to the outside of the hull. It adds a lot of durability, protecting the endgrain of the strips. Also a nice variation on the RoboBevel for trimming the strip edges.
For the record the tool is a Shinto rasp planer. It's been on my list for a while. I don't know if anyone else mentioned it. There were too many comments to sift through LOL Awesome build Jimmy 🥃
desde argentina usted es un maestro y aprendi mucho de usted aqui no se pueden comprar herramientas como en su pais pero nos arreglamos con lo que podemos felicidades a todo su familia
Great build! I am midway through my own Bear Mountain cedar strip canoe. I finished glassing the interior in October, and I know exactly what you mean by perseverance! Mine’s in my garage and winter has hit hard, so I had to store it away until the spring. It’s great to follow along with your boat build, and remember my own. I was so proud when I fit my “whiskey plank”. I didn’t have a glass of whiskey at the time, so I think I will now. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your build! Cheers!
Merry Christmas, Jimmy. Hope you stay warm during it! Great build as always. Glad you have finally had time to work on the boat and start releasing videos.
Merry Christmas, brother! This video was a gift to all of us, and inspiration to finish what we started. I kid you not, I just finished a huge end grain cutting board I started over 2 years ago😅 😂
Nice to see it all come together after many months of instagram stories. Looks great. Nick Offerman, time for you to step up and build the sister boat!
Man I finally finished part 1. The reveal when you flipped the boat over m the end.... Blew my mind how awesome that raw deck wood looked. Can’t wait to watch part two. 😀😀
Epic & titanic endeavour, so satisfying 2nd use of materials, each fettled to a perfect fit & all then held tight by the marvellous of chemistry & mesh. So uplifting & inspiring to see the love, energy & care carrying things to a strong, beautiful symmetry. Thank you for creating & sharing!
Grocery Store belt sander...I own one!!!! Everytime I use it I tell myself it's the last time. Arguably the worst tool Craftsman ever produced! The dedication, determination and plain old physical labor involved in this project is impressive! You always amaze my by making things look so easy! Such a great project. Merry Christmas to you and Taylor (and the whole DiResta family) Jimmy!
Wonderful build. It took me three tries to finally finish my first wood strip boat. Like you said it really is a project you have to commit to. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
My house was built in 1967 and came with Douglas Fir old growth 1x4 decking that needed replacing. Like DiResta, I kept the pulled off boards. They have been handy for 22 years.
There is an imposter in the comments. Please ignore and report. There is no contest or prizes ❤😤
we know it wasnt you, you didnt stencil DIRESTA on it in 400 pt font like 8 times
FYI, Shinto SR-30 to avoid the banged knuckles.
Those imposters appears on probably every channel. Mark Rober, Laura Kampf, OffTheRanch, Matt Cremona, the list goes on. I report 'em, and about 1/2 the time, they get removed.
They will just make me accounts
A mi me contactaron, logré salir a tiempo..

A beautiful boat build AND a voice over!? Definitely a perfect Christmas weekend video!
If you become a member on patreon, he does voice overs often.
I truly don’t know how you do it. Amazing work. Thank you for sharing.
As always Jimmy, i'm thankful and grateful !
Merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah.
I just bought a pair of Carolina boots. First new set of boots I've owned in 40 years. Fantastic.
I can't wait for the first time that boat hits water it will be beautiful. Thanks for the holiday gift of this great video!
What is the best thing one person can do for another?
Inspire them, and that is what you have done here and with a lot of your other builds Jimmy.
Thanks man!!
Jimmy you are an inspiration to all us fellow makers!

I wish you and your family Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Greetings from germany.
You make everything so approachable and boat building is no different. Thanks for sharing the journey Jimmy. You keep poasting, we'll keep watching.
Thank you for a very informative and entertaining video about a classic craft you don't see anymore. My grandfather had a georgous wood speed boat that we used to enjoy as kids in the 60's. Reminded me of happy times. Merry Christmas.
I couldn’t love this anymore… between the project and the voiceover… a Christmas gift indeed!
You've been important since Fleas , never missed anything you produced.
It's been wonderful
Thank you for being there and all you've done to educate us.
Wow thank you 🙏🏼🎄❤️
You always say, "Learn on the first one." Both boats look perfect to me. Damn, thats beautiful!! 🔥
Great Build - Really Enjoyed! I think boat building is woodworking "un"-squared x 10 + art. Kudos to anyone with the skills and patience to pull this off.
That's seriously impressive. I'm amazed you stuck with it. A great motto to live by 'Finish what you start'
Thanks for the gift. Wonderful hearing your calm commentary as you masterfully solve problems. Merry Christmas!
Steve Killing has a rich history. From a 12M to your little skiff. Steve has been around for a long time. Great architect!

I'm always impressed with your persistence Jimmy . Its beautiful
Certainly a patient woodworker

That Craftsman speech was so harsh and so true! They used to be so much better. Great boat Jimmy! Love your videos!
I can’t even begin to tell you how much this has inspired me.
10 years of watching here. You are one of my literal hero’s. Thanks for everything you have posted.
Thanks for another enjoyable video for me to watch over Christmas. Merry Christmas
Jimmy I love your narrations, Your explainantions of processes and and reasons are awesome.
I've done several big builds. They really test your metal. It feels great seeing someone put in the effort and show the journey. The big jobs are not for quitters. Great job. Happy Holidays.

"It's so easy to walk away from this project, I'm telling you"
Glad you didn't, Jimmy! What a project! What a piece of art! Kudos for building it!!!
It's coming along nicely Jimmy
Merry Christmas Jimmy! Merry Christmas RUclips!
Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas to all.
Damn that’s a lot of work, I’m sure Jethro Gibbs would approve!

Still my favorite "maker"! Thank you for projects like this. Beautiful!
An inspiring build of a beautiful little dinghy. Looking forwards to seeing the ribs, gunwales, thwarts etc. going in. Happy 2023 to all.
definitely resonates with me about how you really need to commit to a project like this... I helped build a cedar strip canoe once and really was not prepared for how much time it took.
Fantastic project, people do not appreciate the dedication it takes to undertake such a project!

Excellent start. Can’t wait to see her finished.
Thank you for posting this video. Your work and your commentary are amazing!
Looks great! That's a nice size boat for rowing 1-2, and it doesn't weigh a ton. Very nice shape. Thanks for sharing CAROLINA's build!
Looks awesome! I liked the commentary.
I'm reminded and sad that my late father never got to fulfil his dream of building his own dingy.
For the record the tool is a Shinto rasp planer. It's been on my list for a while. I don't know if anyone else mentioned it. There were too many comments to sift through LOL
Awesome build Jimmy 🥃
That is a beautiful boat awesome you could use that reclaimed lumber Great video Jimmy.
Gorgeous!
Love the repurposed wood.
That was the most satisfying video I have seen in a long time. You are a true craftsman. Thank you!
Merry Christmas Jimmy and thank you for this video and all that you do to inspire the maker community. All the best for next year!
desde argentina usted es un maestro y aprendi mucho de usted aqui no se pueden comprar herramientas como en su pais pero nos arreglamos con lo que podemos felicidades a todo su familia
You make it look easy. Well, maybe not easy, but doable. I admire you. Merry Christmas.

Incredible work! She is looking stunning already! Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Jimmy and thank you for the years of entertainment! 🎄🎄🎄
Amazing watching Jimmy build 👏👏👏👏👏
It was a pleasure spending Christmas with you, thanks for everything Jimmy!
I had tp pause the video and go buy those boots. They are exactly what I want. Thank you and Carolina Shoe.
Merry Christmas, Jimmy. Hope you stay warm during it! Great build as always. Glad you have finally had time to work on the boat and start releasing videos.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Merry Christmas!
Beautiful boat. Great way to reuse old wood. So much work with the glue and handplane 😀
Merry Christmas Jimmy! The boat is wonderful! :)
Not as nice as your boat...err Canoe ;)
Who else but Diresta wakes up in the morning and says, "I think I will build a boat" Happy New Year Jimmy and thank for the great content!
I love my Carolina boots. Beautiful craftmanship
Merry Christmas, brother! This video was a gift to all of us, and inspiration to finish what we started. I kid you not, I just finished a huge end grain cutting board I started over 2 years ago😅 😂
Always admire your videos and calm description of steps in your projects.
I respect your reuse of wood giving it an entirely new life. Nice work Jimmy
Thank you, Jimmy. And Joe, too. Good looking boat.
Ufffff part 2 and the restoration of the motor is going to be super entrusting!! Thanks jimmy !! FELIZ NAVIDAD!! 🎄🎁 much love from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Lovely work and workshop!
Nice to see it all come together after many months of instagram stories. Looks great. Nick Offerman, time for you to step up and build the sister boat!
Man I finally finished part 1. The reveal when you flipped the boat over m the end.... Blew my mind how awesome that raw deck wood looked. Can’t wait to watch part two. 😀😀
Just beautiful Jimmy …..love it❤ we will always be here for whatever you’re doing👍
an absolute gem of a video. the voice over just works. Great project. looking forward to pt. 2
Epic & titanic endeavour, so satisfying 2nd use of materials, each fettled to a perfect fit & all then held tight by the marvellous of chemistry & mesh. So uplifting & inspiring to see the love, energy & care carrying things to a strong, beautiful symmetry. Thank you for creating & sharing!
Merry Christmas to you too Jimmy. She’s going to be a beauty. Also repurposing the old deck into something so good as a boat is a really nice touch
The tail of the boat is called the skeg. Cannot wait for part two!!!
Thank you, happy New Year 2023!!!
joyeux noel et bonne année a vous et votre famille 🎉🎊
Jimmy you are a Stick-to-itiveness kinda guy, you never give up on what you do. Beautiful build so far. Merry Christmas to you and yours 🎅 🤶 🧑🎄 🎄 🎁
The Craftsman sander comment 🤣 is so true! Amazing boat Jimmy!
Happy birthday, Jesus! Merry Christmas! God bless y'all.

What a wonderful surprise to wake up to for Boxing day! Great craftsmanship and videography as always. Thanks Jimmy for your continued inspiration.
Wow, I'm loving the voice over on this build. More please ! Happy Christmas Diresta !
Nice job from an old woodworker/homebuilder in New Jersey
Beautiful boat! I can't wait to see it finished. Someday I'll make a canoe.
Truly BEAUTIFUL .. the result of much painstaking work.
Wonderful build. It took me three tries to finally finish my first wood strip boat. Like you said it really is a project you have to commit to. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
My house was built in 1967 and came with Douglas Fir old growth 1x4 decking that needed replacing. Like DiResta, I kept the pulled off boards. They have been handy for 22 years.

Lovely intermediate stage Jimmy! Looking forward to the next stage around August '23. 😁
