Steaming Workshop: 4th,5th and 6th of October


In October 2011 we began lofting the lines of an old west cork clinker boat we found abandoned. Various enthusiastic learners participated in our series of workshops during the year in which we built a replica step by step. The boat is now fully planked - ready to be timbered out. Experience the exciting technique of steaming solid oak ribs and gunwhales in our upcoming workshop!
