We Have Shipped Our 20,000th
Kit!
Chesapeake Light
Craft hit a huge milestone on November 15th when we shipped our
20,000th kit. It was a Shearwater 17,
sent to a builder in Aguanga, California.
If
all those boats were lined up bow to stern, they would stretch 56.8
miles, or 91.4 kilometers.
Read more on the 20,000th kit
here. Interested in the history of boat kits in general? Here's an interesting
read on our blog.
See you at kit number 40,000!

A few lingering warm days in November were welcome as we enjoy the
new Annapolis Wherry Tandem on the water. Here's a cool video of the
boat doing its thing.

Two kits that will fit under the tree!
Know somebody small who wants a wooden boat this winter?
Build a CLC Cradle boat!
Fast and fun to build, and you can convert it into a coffee table
(or build it that way from the start).
Order your kit for
$329.
Our new Wood Duckling 8 kayak kit for kids packs into a box that'll
fit under a tree, and it ships right to your door via UPS. A
perfect boat to build with the young kayaker in your family!
Only $475.

New!
Black Delrin Hatch Toggles
Lots of CLC kayak
kits have flush hatches in the decks. Our friend Russell Brown is
machining up these sleek black Delrin hatch toggles, which spare
you having to make the wooden ones, last longer than the wooden
ones, and don't scratch varnish as easily. They just look good,
too.
$5.50 each or $40 for an 8-pack.

Open House at the CLC Shop!
Join us on Saturday, December 11th between 9am and

in Annapolis.
Following coffee and donuts, we'll have boatbuilding
demonstrations throughout the day including
fiberglass, epoxy, and
varnishing. We have lots of new designs to check
out in the prototype shop, and VERY deep discounts on selected
merchandise in the showroom.
Save the
date and stay tuned for additional details in the
coming weeks.

New
Books!
Kayak
Fishing
The most comprehensive book yet written on the subject---over
two hundred pages of kayak angling expertise in this new book! You
can reach fishing holes in a kayak that are inaccessible to
everyone else. $29.99
Fiberglass
Boat Repair
Yeah, yeah, 20,000 wooden boat kits and all, but a
huge percentage of CLC customers are tending to their fiberglass
production boats, too. Fiberglass has its own peculiar tricks for
repair, and this is the essential bible on the matter. Should be
in every boat owner's library. $29.95
