Sailing an Eastport Nesting Pram

Chesapeake Light Craft Eastport Nesting Pram

Gorgeous dinghy. It's also very impressive how you controlled the camera drone and sailed the pram at the same time, even when the drone appeared to be out of sight on the other side of the sail. You took a big chance of loosing the drone in the sea. Perfect music choice also. Most of these videos on youtube look haphazardly strung together. This video's action was matched to the music. You are a director.

Beautiful! I have one myself and am just waiting for wind to sail it. What minimum knots/mph wind does it take to move one adult male around?

You will enjoy it, it is a very tactile little boat to sail. It doesn't take too much to get it going. In this video, I doubt it was more than 2-3kts. Handles more wind well too.

@@LeeBoatworks Thanks for the info. I've been watching the wind daily here in north Georgia and it's either gusting or hardly any breeze at all. I think I'll just take it out and see tomorrow AM! Where are you sailing BTW?

Love it. Congrats. I’ve just bought the kit and starting build soon. Do you have a build log? Or any tips for a first timer? Thanks

[@LeeBoatworks]

Thanks. I think you will really enjoy the build process. I documented my build through some scattered posts here: leeboatworkspocketship.blogspot.com
