    A serious boat for serious water
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 3, 2021*

I'm here in the Kenai visiting grandkids, going to Homer next week where Tolman lives.  Kachemak bay, 32' tides twice a day.  46 degree water in the summer...storms rolling in from Kodiak and the Bering Strait.  There are a lot of Tolman Skiffs on Kachemak.  Homemade at about half the cost of the good aluminum competitors.  Performance just as good....life a little shorter.  Going after Winter Kings, Halibut, Rockfish...does a great job.  If you need a hard use boat for serious saltwater, and your budget is tight...this is the boat, proven over 25 years.

    Tested in Alaskan waters
  

*by F***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 7, 2019*

This is about the most practical book that I have found on building a fishing boat.  First of all, the design of this boat has been refined over many years as it was being tested in real-world conditions in Alaska. Second, it is an easy design to implement. Almost anyone can do it with modest set of tools. The key to this is  that it is a stitch and glue design that makes it easier to form the curves in the V over designs where one has to create a much more complex jig to form and support the curves.  Third, it is light weight design that requires very little horsepower. It sips gas. Without getting into all the advantages of gas and HP economy, this makes the boat ultra practical, one which allows it to be used day in and day out.

    Yup, that's the one
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 16, 2020*

The fifth book on boat building I've read this year.  My favorite.  I've also read one of Dynamite Payson's books, (a close second), The Dory Book, Building Classic Small Craft (mostly plans), and Building Small Boats.  If you're getting into plywood/epoxy boat building, this is worth it even if you don't build a Tolman skiff this year.  Tons of insight on plywood/epoxy boat building.  Plus, you can build a Tolman skiff (3 versions) from the book!  That's cheaper than alot of boat plans out there.  Good one.
