Caulking For Beginners
A tight wooden boat is a strong boat. The caulking in the seams compresses the planks and adds stiffness to the hull. Tim Regan is a world renowned caulker. He will explain and demonstrate the techniques of examining a boat to determine the extent of repair and caulking required. Tim will also deal with the tools and caulking materials needed. He will guide the student in reefing and caulking both hull and deck. One day sessions in May and September. Call or register online (preferred) http://www.cwb.org/class-catalog.

The Center for Wooden Boats offers an opportunity to experience the dimensions of an earlier time, to put your hands on the oars of a graceful pulling boat or the tiller of a traditional wooden catboat. With help from master craftsmen, you can learn to steambend an oak frame, cast an oarlock, sew a canvas ditty bag, splice a line or caulk a seam. The Center for Wooden Boats is a hands on maritime museum. Its purpose is to preserve our rich, vital and varied small craft heritage by preserving both the artifacts and the time-tested maritime skills. Our aim is to provide an educational adventure, through participation, in our small craft heritage.
