after watching lot`s of your posts, I`ve finally found the boat I`m gonna build, a 16ft Hatteras! (wish me luck)!
Good luck, how's the build going?
Hatteras is 19 foot I believe.
I think I have watched all of your videos trying to decide on what to build. Used to fish the gulf near Apalachicola. I can't decide between the v bottom and flat bottom designs. We used semi v type fiberglass boats and could comfortably a few miles off the islands. I really love the look of the Hatteras and pangas. Great content!
My deciding factor would be if i had access to launch my boat from the beach anywhere nearby, i might want a flat bottom. If not, full v would let you get around faster but be a little less steady not moving.
thank God for Jeff' your video was great. I am going to build the Carolina Hatteras. Sent for the plans can not wait to get started.
Love to see a video about about Trim tabs on your bots!
I like that design but I’m going to look at several of your other designs to see what would be the best for a first attempt at boat building...Thanks Jeff
Thank you so much! Nicely done!
Chiếc thuyền trông thật đẹp. Thanks bạn yêu chia sẻ Tuyệt vời tôi thích nó 👍🌹🌹
RIP my friend 😢😢
Thanks
Great video Jeff.
Can you help with a boat choice? I'd like to build one for inland lakes and Michigans Great Lakes. Used for fiishing, tubing, etc. Needs to fit a family of 6-8. I'd like it to get up to 35 knots or so without a massive outboard. I like the flat bottom option of being able to beach it sometimes. Thanks for any advise you have.
Sure. Semd me an email to info@spirainternational.com and I'll discuss some options.

What screws do you use,steel or stainless
Hi, I have question regarding building this Hatteras V-Bottom Dory. Can I use Thick Plywood for Frames instead of 2x4? I'm planning to built this in the Philippines. Also can I use 20hp motor for this Hatteras V-Bottom Dory 18 feet? Thanks
Yes, you can. Best bet is to send me an email to info@spirainternational.com and I can give you more detailed info.
What’s the cost of a boat like this
Hi Im looking to build my first boat. I live in Sydney and want to go offshore for fishing. Would you recommend this one over your other boats?
It depends on what you are looking for. I have 105 designs and each is recommended over each other depending on what the builder is looking for. All are capable of offshore fishing.
I just tried to visit you website but it is redirecting me to building pole barns.
Does this have a self-bailing cockpit?
Normally not really, but you could build it that way. Normally, it'll self bail when on a plane, if you have the right scuppers, but not stopped.
👍👍🙂
your
website links don't work
Nice👍
How to fix the bottom keel
can a cabin be added?
Sure.
It would be nice to have a real video instead of pictures
What would have been really nice if one of the 100 or more builders that have completed them could had sent me videos to publish.
Just Share this on all his videos. Jeff has passed away and his site expired and the domain is gone. There are a few historic snapshots out there. I do not know if anyone owns the right to his plans anymore.
So sad! Looks like he will live on though
