Boatbuilding 101:
Everything you need to know to build your own boat

This two-weekend, hands-on class takes the new builder through all phases of boat building: getting the most out of a set of plans, building the backbone, steaming frames, planking, spar making, interior joinery and more. While you will not build a boat in the class, each student will make the most difficult pieces and learn enough to proceed alone with confidence. All tools and materials provided. $275 for non-members; $245 for Museum members. To register, call 215.413.8638.
