Great articles about WOODEN BOAT REPAIR AND RESTORATION METHODS | traditional wooden boats and yachts
| traditional wooden boats and yachts
Master shipwright Walt Ansel of Mystic Seaport will take students beyond the traditional introductory boatbuilding and boat repair courses offered here at WoodenBoat School with this challenging and very exciting project.
CINDERELLA, a lovely 25' sloop designed and owned by Henry Scheel, is the centerpiece for this two-week foray into wooden boat restoration. She has been lovingly restored over the last three seasons and will ultimately be relaunched here in Brooklin. The techniques students will use to document, stabilize, and rebuild the hull are the exact same methods used at Mystic Seaport and other professional boatyards around the country.
The goal throughout the restoration is to have a strong, longlasting, aesthetically beautiful vessel, faithful to Henry Scheel’s original vision.

Kapal Layar Mesin translates as "Motor Sailor" and reflects the presence of the older sailing phinisi bow, bowsprit, and fore mast. These pics were taken fairly far up the river near Sangkulirang, Kalimantan Timur. where we lofted the hull shape and built the actual mould frames for this new vessel.
