Door County Maritime Museum’s annual boat building class gets underway Jan. 29. One opening remains for this basic-intermediate level class. Class enrollment is limited to five students to enhance the learning experience and ensure each student gets maximum hands-on experience in all facets of the construction process. Classes are held each Saturday through June.
The boat being constructed this year is a 12-foot Pooduck Skiff. This Joel White-designed sailing dingy features lapstrake construction with elegant lines. Often called a “big little” boat, the design is renowned for excellent rowing and sailing ability, easy construction, and mannerly towing habits. The dinghy may be viewed on the Wooden Boat publications website at http://www.woodenboat.com. As in years past, the finished boat will be raffled as the grand prize to benefit the museum.
