Hi Folks
Before i buy something, i first try to built it myself. This is how to built a Rubber Duck.
After my trailer was built, I decided to built a Rubber Duck. This Building report I'd like to show you, how easy it is with little money to build a dinghy. The most expensive was the bicycle tube for 3 euros. The wood I had at home. First of all tue bulkheads were sawn. Then all parts for tue Body was glued. Then, the inner tube was cut exactly in the middle. The valve is hidden later in the top of the boot, So that you can pump it up ,ob to let down tue air. The tube is then matched to the frame and cut to length. The cutted ends of the inner tube must now be tightly sealed. Then you fill up the tube with air . Then the tube is adjusted and glued to the hull of the boat. Put on a few extras, and there goes your boatBigGrin

Best Regards
Andreas
