wooden boat building, first launch, Lastochka, Seoul Korea 2015

[@JamesJones-cx5pk]

That is the perfect little leisure craft. Those small twin 4 strokes are quiet.

[@melvinboyce9629]

Nice build. Be proud of your boat and remember to respect the sailboats.

[@autoction]

Am sailer too. Actually like the wind things more than the engine things.

Great build. I would put twin 40 hp on it but I boat in the great lakes of Canada need the speed. Fast storms here. lol

[@autoction]

You are right. Twin 20hp are not enough. Max 15 knots, Cruising at 10-12 knots. I am thinking about 90HP single later.

[@Bikerbob59]

@@autoction Oh That would nice maybe twin 50 just for the redundancy. Ya I know more cost and maintenance. all depends on how far out your going. Beautiful boat though.

[@matthewtjepkema1508]

Love the boat. What is your top speed and cruising speed with the twin 20s?

[@wolfyk95]

Really nice build quality! Pilot needs practice but he's sure to get it.

[@richhippy4995]

This is great! Good work, I am looking to apprentice under a wooden boat builder in Korea. Any resources or info would be great!

[@autoction]

well, basically it's wood work. I do not believe need to learn from somebody. many resources you can find from web. that would more than enough

[@OneWayTraffic]

There's a fantastic build thread of this boat at wooden boat forum.

[@autoction]

@@OneWayTraffic Yeh, I got so many advice from the Forum. I really enjoyed works. it was really happy moments.

[@OneWayTraffic]

@@autoction I spent a very good 8 years of my life in South Korea teaching English. Lovely people. How is the boat holding up? I know that you didn't have the recommended tape for all the seams: any issues?

[@autoction]

@@OneWayTraffic 8 years, long time. I didn't had any problem yet. and hope nothing happen in the future too :D

모양이 귀여워요~

[@КотПрошка]

[@autoction]

Because.. I want my boat sailing smoothly like an lastochka. I am not a Russian. But wanted to give her some unique name.

Hi! Where in Seoul is this? Do you park your boat and trailer there, or do you tow it home?

[@autoction]

ara marina, kimpo

[@914050]

+AuTocTion Korea Thanks!

[@autoction]

914050a my boat stay at Marina, drive trailer in Seoul is really not easy and parking is also big problem. I have parking at marina just beside slipway. do you live in Seoul? ^^

[@914050]

I live in Bundang. I am not from Korea, but I have been here 7 years and will stay longer. I am really interested in boating here, especially sailing, but don't have the time and money for it yet. Hopefully after a couple of years I will. I thought that driving a trailer might be hard. Also, like you said, no trailer parking at my home. Berths are too expensive for me. I think parking near the slipway will be the best option. It seems Jeongok Marina in Hwaseong is a little more affordable, but also further away from Bundang. Thanks for your advice!

[@sammybobammy891]

Yo nice dipper19 ! How long did the build take?

[@davidbradley3074]

your trailer wheel is bad on the left side!

[@autoction]

Well. Not only wheel. Its Chinese product

[@impactajuvenile]

OMG, Kim Jong Un is launching an attack in his battleship???

[@wolfyk95]

Wrong Korea lol

[@autoction]

Well, not bad. Anyway knows who is Kim jong en
