Description

One of our goals at The Center for Wooden Boats is to present unique learning opportunities in the art and craft of traditional boatbuilding. The Lake Oswego Boat is a lovely and slender 15’ double-ended pulling boat. This graceful hull is said to have originated in the area of Lake Oswego, Oregon. Here is a chance to work on a beautiful boat with a gifted and experienced instructor. Become familiar with the remarkable properties of seasoned Western Red cedar, White Oak, and other boat building woods. Learn to trust the ductility of copper clench nails and rivets.There is no prerequisite of experience. Work with fellow enthusiasts and go through the complete assembly process, from putting up molds, planking and framing, to fitting oarlock pads.
