Boat Building - Bow to Stern

Description

If you're interested in someday building your own boat for a blissful summer on the lake... we hope you'll join us for the entire boat building series!
Watch our skiff being built in community at the SPTL shop as you plan for or tackle building your own flat bottomed boat. Series participants will get access to all the build content - including LIVE Demos, Online Instruction and Video Blogs (8+ bundles of content showing you how to: dimension planking and transom stock, glue-up panels, understand epoxy, cut bevels and tapered rabbet, fit and fasten, rivet, spill and fit seats, seal and finish, and more.), Project Q/A chat sessions, hands-on build time, and a chance to sit back and spin around the lake during our Summer celebration.   

No experience necessary!
* The full series may be purchased at any point in the build process.  When you register, you will receive all previously recorded/released content within a week.
