We think the Weekender Video is fun as well as useful It covers a lot of information and still remains easy-to-watch, at least that's our story!
We wanted to take this opportunity to thank the Sprague Family for their contributions to the Weekender Home Boatbuilding Video Sets. Hall Sprague was the third member of our boatbuilding team for the video and was an invaluable help in the production Hall had never built much before this, but he's an insightful sociologist and a sharp fellow. His intelligent questions added tremendously to the on-camera discussions and his wonderful attitude made working with him a real joy. We think this comes across in the video and we want to thank him for that once again.
In addition to the building help, Hall is one of the musicians responsible for the great sounds in our videos! Hall, his sons Peter and Tripp, and a few of their friends recorded the album Blurring The Edges and you can hear tracks on the Weekender DVD. Hall Sprague's own great album Hurry Home provides sounds as well. The links above will take you to Peter Sprague's website where you can learn more about their music and purchase CD's and MP3's as well.
The Spragues are a truly accomplished and charming family and we're glad we could combine both our family's productions in our videos!

If you have more videos you'd like to share, or links to other videos we haven't posted, please let us know! It's really gratifying for us to see people having good fun with their projects built from our plans and we hope others enjoy watching these videos as much as we do!
Congratulations to these young guys for making a great boat and for making great videos of the process too! Well done...
Back to 1996 we go...
