Why we build in wood:

• Wood is a renewable resource, and ecologically sound.
• Your boat will have the feeling of solidity only wood can give.
• Your craft will give off the unique scent of finished wood.
• Wood is a more pleasant environment to live in as it suffers less condensation than metal or fibreglass, and naturally insulates against noise and temperature.
• Aesthetically wood is more pleasing to the eye especially for a boat of classic design.
• Wooden boats have proved to be long lasting and easy to maintain.
• It can be repaired anywhere in the world at reasonable cost.
• Wooden vessels can be kept permanently afloat for out of season sailing, when all the anchorages are quiet and peaceful.
• Wood is a great material to work with.
