There’s a level of appreciation for an object you build with your own two hands, a kinship unfelt when it’s simply plucked off the rack. While we’d love to fashion as many of our wooden goods as we can, some seem a bit daunting, like building a rowboat. Stitchbird offers the next best thing. The Rowboat kit includes all the precision cut plywood and hardwood pieces you need to assemble your very own tiny boat. Available in a slew of different exterior colors—we vote Rescue Orange, but all look great—the kit comes together to form a lightweight rowboat that weighs less than 45 lbs. You’ll have a bit of added satisfaction every time you paddle out.
