It is absolutely possible to build one single handed. I built a NE Dory by myself, the only time an extra pair of hands was helpful was when turning the boat over. A Passagemaker should be a bit easier to flip than the Dory.

It helps to have an epoxy mixer person when you are wetting out alot of cloth. It makes fast work if you have 2 people spreading epoxy and one person mixing. But, to answer your question, it is completly possible to do everything solo mio. JRC

Hi Blenheim,

This falls under the FWIW heading, which, when added to $5.20 will get you a cup of coffee.

Most fun I've had building was with two other guys the winter we built 4 boats. Second most fun was helping my girl friend with a strip built Redfish King. (She's now my wife because, not stupid, duh.) Least fun was building a NE Dory all by my lonesome. But hey, it's building stuff, always fun right?

Totally doable. Hardest part to manage solo is inverting the boat. Dig through the forum for a couple of guys who have rigged a webbing strap/pully system for flippage.

Cheers!
