This site started out, a few years ago, as a place to document my projects. At first, I was building stripper kayaks, a Guillemot, and an Explorer. As things developed, I began to research Teardrop Trailers, and I was "hooked"! Although I still have the boat building journals on this site, my focus for the last three years, has been building wooden Teardrop Trailers. I have, as of this update (October, 2007) built five, one-of-a-kind wooden Teardrop Trailers. In fact, I have written a builder's manual which details the methods which I have developed in teardrop construction. These methods save time, your back, and allow the finishing of the project "from the inside-out".
I am currently seeking to build custom wooden Teardrop Trailers. I have built and sold four of the five documented on this site. If you like what you see, and would like to discuss a project, please contact me!
New!!! I am now offering Teardrop Trailers in kit form!

As you can imagine, maintaining these journals can be time
consuming. Space for these journals is expensive. If you feel that this
site, and the building information is worthwhile, please consider
supporting the site. Just give whatever you think having this site is
worth. No matter what, I will continue to add information to the site
for all to use freely.
