Quote of the moment

Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates.

-- Mark Twain

Welcome to the Back Yard Yacht Builders Association

We are a group dedicated to promoting the fun and reward to be found in building and sailing plywood boats. There is something especially rewarding about experiencing a beautiful and unique boat o­n the water knowing you built it with your own hands. While we are focused on Stevenson designs, We invite Builders and designers of all designs to join the BYYB and take an active part in our Builder forums. Come sailing with us on our many messabouts with our numerous fleets. Help us to help others realize their dream, and then live it with the camaraderie of the BYYB. We encourage you to look around the web site, visit the forums, ask questions, post fun stories, and attend BYYB events. We hope you will see the continued value of the BYYB and join us as a full member.

Recent  boat Launchings
Well you would think by the title that the person building the boat was un-named, but in fact it was his boat which has thus far remained nameless. Rob McKinney a member of the BYYB launched his un-named Weekender this past weekend for a shake down cruise.
