Review of The Center for Wooden Boats, July 02, 2008
What can I say? Sometimes you don't even realize how much fun you're missing out on until a big ol' bunch of it lands in your lap. I feel that way about Center for Wooden Boats.
This place is one of Seattle's true gems. It's a organization that really feels like is has a hard-working and dedicated community that supports it. Everyone I've met here is warm and engaging... and they offer great classes.
The day I went to CWB, it was actually to use their library room for a team meeting -- the sailing "class" was actually just a bonus. However, we went out with one of the sailing instructors who not only told us about how to make the sails catch the wind (little that there was), but he also gave us a little history lesson about our 40 year old boat (an old oystering boat) and the wooden boat community in the Northwest. It was great to be out on the water, but even better to be out on the water with someone who really loves what they do.
And these boating folks really do love what they do. Joining us on our boat was a Texan who came all the way to Seattle to take a kayak-building class. I was like... "Do people really make there own kayaks?" Apparently the hard-core folks at CWB do. They were building them out on their lawn the morning of our meeting and we got to chat with the instructor (a local) and the students (from Alaska, Texas, Michigan and the Pacific NW).
I didn't even realize there was stuff like this out there. I may never become a boat builder, but if I do... this place is definitely going to be my first stop. In the mean time, I'll be back for more sailing lessons soon.
