Listen now
Description
This week’s podcast is three short interviews I recorded during the 2013 Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival. The first interview is with Korey and Christina from Florida. Korey heard my HOWB podcast last year, and as a result he and Christina flew up for the September 2012 Port Townsend Festival and to check out the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding in Port Hadlock. This August they packed up all their gear and moved to Port Townsend for Korey to attend the School starting in October. This is really exciting for me to see the fruit of my podcast. The second interview is with John and Roxie Caples from Olympia, WA. John is a HOWB fan and they own a gorgeous 1971 Grand Banks 42ʹ power boat that is planked with Philippine Mahogany and has a teak interior. John and Roxie are very meticulous with Xanadu, and it shows. The third interview is with HOWB fans John and Val Teters of Olympia, WA. They own an Ed Monk Sr. designed power boat Grand Finale. She was built in 1970 for the Seventh Day Adventist Church as a mission boat to Prince Rupert Island, AK. She is gorgeous and well taken care of. The main salon area originally housed Church pews and an organ for onboard services. ------------------------------------------------ You can contact me at [email protected] to share you comments, feedback, stories, and wooden boat adventures.
