Boatbuilding Workshop at Redd's Pond Boatworks Begins June 22nd

Ahoy Neighbors!

Last summer led to the successful build and launch of a Banks Dory, and it’s that time of year that we are looking forward to our second boatbuilding workshop at Redd’s Pond Boatworks. This summer we are offering to build a skiff. A skiff is a seaworthy and versatile family boat that easily accepts an outboard motor. It has stern side seats and two thwart seats that provide ample seating. At the end of the workshop we will host a celebratory launch and the boat will be raffled-off for the cost of materials.

Doug Park, owner of Redd’s Pond Boatworks, and Russ Wells, teacher at Tower School, will be leading the instruction. The class will cover skills such as pattern making, riveting, boat joinery, steam bending, oar making, and painting. It is a excellent design to learn with as it combines elements of much larger boats into a small, quickly built, easily handled boat.

This summer you can join us June 22-July 23, 6-9 pm, Monday-Thursday for $850.00, or $50/evening. Call (617-834-7547), email (info@reddspondboatworks.com) or go online to enroll for this year‘s summer boatbuilding.

We are also willing to give a 10% discount for referrals that leads to full enrollment of a friend.

Anchors away,

Doug and Russ
