Ted is a godfather to all those who now build small boats using the strip-planked, fiberglass and epoxy method. He started this class at the WoodenBoat School building two canoes.</p> <p><a href="http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot/event/classes/fine_woodstrip_canoe_construction_woodenboat_school">read more</a></p> Classes Strip-Built WoodenBoat School Mon, 07 Dec 2009 10:17:23 -0500 admin 1678 at http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot/event/classes/connecticut_valley_school_woodworking/stripplanking_workshop <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-start"><label>Start: </label>Oct 30 2010 - 09:00</div></div> <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-end"><label>End: </label>Oct 30 2010 - 16:00</div></div> <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-tz"><label>Timezone: </label>Etc/GMT-4</div></div> <p>This one day <a href="http://www.schoolofwoodworking.com/classes/index.html#Speciality_Weekend_Classes">workshop at the Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking</a> in Manchester CT will provide interested boatbuilders a solid overview of the strip-planked method of building small boats.</p> <p><a href="http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot/event/classes/connecticut_valley_school_woodworking/stripplanking_workshop">read more</a></p> Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking Workshop Fri, 06 Aug 2010 17:34:40 -0400 Nick 2174 at http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot/event/classes/build_high_performance_sea_kayak_cvsw_0 <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-start"><label>Start: </label>Jan 15 2011 - 09:00</div></div> <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-end"><label>End: </label>Jan 20 2011 - 12:00</div></div> <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-tz"><label>Timezone: </label>Etc/GMT-4</div></div> <p>Sea kayaking is the sport of taking a small boat out on to the big ocean. You could buy an ordinary plastic kayak, or you could build your own which will be lighter, faster, better looking and more fun than any you can buy. This fast-paced class will take students through the major phases of building a “Night Heron” sea kayak. Using the “Stitch-and-glue” construction method, each student will go home with his or her own kayak. Some finish work will be required when they get home. Students will learn some basic woodworking skill as well as how to work with fiberglass and epoxy.</p> <p><a href="http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot/event/classes/build_high_performance_sea_kayak_cvsw_0">read more</a></p> Classes Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking Fri, 06 Aug 2010 17:41:38 -0400 Nick 2175 at http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/guillemot
