Build logs for people building boats

Every boat gets built twice. Once in your shop, once in someone else’s head.

Post photos and notes from the shop as you go — from your phone, with dust on your hands. Months or years later the whole log stands as a start-to-finish reference for the next person building the same boat.

No published builds yet

This is day one. If you are building or restoring a boat right now, yours can be the log everyone else follows.

How it works

One

Log it as you go

Photos, a paragraph, hours worked, which step you were on. Sixty seconds, from your phone. Shot Saturday and posting Sunday? The date comes off the photo, not the clock.

Two

It becomes a reference

Entries stay in shop order, oldest first, so the finished log reads start to finish — not newest-first like a blog. Print the whole thing when she launches.

Three

Compare across builders

Every log is filed under its design, so you can see how a dozen people handled fairing on the same hull — and what it actually cost them in hours.
