Tango Skiff 13 Build Gallery

[@srileo]

Seems such an effortless build! Love the idea of using the boat trailer as a work stand.

[@twr41cox]

Looks great. Motivating me to build one this winter!

[@eduardiibustamante2006]

Nice boat,nice work,nice family,nice place.....

[@farrel4083]

That is a sweet looking boat good job man enjoy it with your family bless.

[@jasonsanitz5623]

A beautiful build! Beautiful place you are in also, great photography!!!

[@vupilot]

Thanks, that was partly filmed in Indiana and the mountainous area was between Chattanooga TN and Lake Nickajack on the TN river. There is a homebuilt boat gathering there every September

[@jasonsanitz5623]

@@vupilot I love it! I am curious, what type of plywood did you use, and what products for your paint and finish work? I am a beginner, and am really enjoying it!

[@vupilot]

Is BS1088 Okoume plywood, 6mm. Paint is Interlux Brightsides, epoxy is MAS epoxy. 130 hours to build over about 3 months

@@vupilot thank you for taking the time to respond, if you build another project, keep me posted!! Beautiful work!

[@romualdogil9165]

Parabéns pela construção, ficou muito bom.

[@mazinmedrado1855]

Vc sabe qual tipo de madeira ele usa pra fazer esse barco ? O resultado final é muito bom.

[@kuma9069]

A lively & attractive craft. Lovely job, Captain. A couple of questions if I may: - the measurements of the (beautifully finished) transom? - the purpose of the surprising "pyramids" aft. Flotation or extra storage? Many thanks!

[@vupilot]

The measurements are on the plans from www.tangoskiff.com. The boat is available to be built in several sizes. The aft design provides additional floatation when running solo to keep that boat flatter.

[@ruslangalushko3827]

Красивая лодка, я тоже джонбот сделал 3.2 м - как то мало ))), сейчас делаю свою разработку 3.8 м ( и вот на вашей лодке задние баки мне понравились, значит будет 4.2 м = 14 фт ).

[@stevefischer197]

Awesome job on your boat! I am building the 14’ version. Do you happen to know what model trailer you have? I am to the point I will need a trailer soon. Thanks.

[@vupilot]

Its a Karavan LB1250-46-120. Local dealer had them left over from jon boats.

[@vupilot]

You should post yours on the Tango Skiff Builders Facebook group.

[@7Calvin]

Nice! I'm thinking of building a Zip. I see that you're also a pilot, you should build a wooden plane next...like a Fisher Avenger. I fly Piper Cherokees/Warriors too.

[@vupilot]

Thanks. For the time and money seems more cost effective to just buy a plane. I own part of a Cherokee right now but always have my eyes on some experimentals.

[@7Calvin]

@@vupilot I might build a Sonex if I was going to attempt a plane. Regarding the Zip, would you recommend to a first time builder? I'm doing a 7'10 rowing pram as a learning/practive project. Are there other wooden runabouts that you'd recommend that are similar to the Zip?

[@vupilot]

Zip was my first build. All the Glen-L designs are straight forward. If your waters are reservoirs and not open water and your typical passenger load is 600lbs or so or less Zip a great boat. Malahini or SkiTow are slightly bigger if you want more room/load. But they may not fit in a standard 20x20 garage on the trailer. Which is why I built the Zip. The time to build a foot or two larger boat is not significant.

[@7Calvin]

@@vupilot thank you for your advice!

[@rage_m0nster284]

Well made sir! Thanks f0r a clever idea... h0w thick is this w0od that y0u are using? Thanks!

[@lido7ful]

saludos desde republica dominicana, tengo algunas preguntas primero, de cuantos pies es el bote, y cual es la potencia mínima para el motor fuera de borda para ese bote, gracias

[@mitchj2791]

I'm wrapping up a Hoosier Tango 13 too. Your build looks great, your Small Boats article sold me on the design (I commented over there too). Would you do the 9.9 again?

[@vupilot]

Hi, it would be great to run out Tango Skiffs together sometime. No, I probably would not do the 9.9 again. 6hp is plenty adequate. I underestimated just how light weight these Tango's are. The only time I feel like the 9.9 is right is when i have a passenger up front.

[@oliveroc9431]

Plans please😊

[@dkroen17]

Very cool!

[@sergiobarreto4492]

Hello, with what product do you seal the seams of the boat so that no water enters?. Thanks.

[@kennethchance431]

Hi the 9.9 hp 4 stroke is it 15'' shaft or 20''shaft ? thanks for sharing your video.

[@vupilot]

Short shaft

[@dailycheikh7759]

Hi. Nice job. Can I get the design please

[@paulclare6589]

Looks great,i am building a 12.5 from scratch,so far looks good , from a carpenters eye.. how high are your gunnels " 16 - 18 "?.. also how deep is the transom...looks like 12" 14" from here in Thailand.

[@luisalejandroalbornoz3230]

Hola buenas vendes los planos

[@ramkankonkar5137]

How to calculate weight and measures

[@G56AG]

Looks great, and a big plus for everyone using PFD's when on the water. However, big downgrade for the switching back and forth between the normal horizontal format and the obnoxious vertical format takes a lot of enjoyment out of the video. Vertical video shouldn't be posted online, screens run left and right, not up and down.

[@franciscoumbertorodriguesf6827]

Moro no Brasil queria fazer um igual por gentileza o Sr. Poderia mandar as medidas é a espessura do compesado usado na fabricação da em barcacao

[@juvenalsantos5974]

Amigo se vc prestar atenção aos detalhes você consegui fazer as laterais provavelmente são feitas com compensado naval de 8mm e as divisões e fundo com 10mm e a parte onde pega o motor 20mm que pode ser colado duas de 10mm e coberto com tecido de fibra de vidro 300 gramas e resina epóxi .

You won't like that "bench seat" aft because you will always be twisted up running your outboard. It will be very tiresome.
