The Wooden Boat School restores wooden vessels of all ages for our collection.  Restoration projects are lead by Shipwright and Lead Instructor Wayne Ford, and a team of volunteers.

Current Projects:
  • Moon Song rowboat stripping and varnishing
  • Penn-Yan Car-Topper boat recanvassing
  • 1950’s racing sloop Rascal refastening

If you are interested in being a part of this exciting movement to get the Rascal out on the water once again, consider joining one of our restoration seminars. Click on the Boat School tab and select Adult Classes for more info on how you can get involved.
