Description
HANDS ON BOATS, the Boatshop’s new signature program, is designed for adults who are interested in wooden boats and who want to be part of constructing a new boat while learning-by-doing alongside a master boat builder.

Working alongside Nate Piper, master boat builder, participants will identify, layout and install the hardware on the newly constructed Piscataqua River Wherry.
