Introducing the Boatbuilder for a Day workshop at the Gig Harbor BoatShop
Have you always wanted to build a boat, but did't want to go it alone? Here is your chance! Join us as we build a classic 15ft 8in rowing boat. You will develop a combination of traditional and contemporary skills as part of a small crew guided by experienced boat builders.
The workshops will cover the entire building process from selecting a design to launching. You can attend as few or as many sessions as you like.
Sessions will be held most Saturdays from February 11 until Labor Day.
We will start at 9:00AM, take an hour for lunch, and finish at 5:00PM.
