Well, you guys all know that they last thing you’ll ever see me do is try to build a kayak! But for all you gift boat builder types there is a great event coming up in Minnestota June 16th & 17th. Here’s the run down from their website;

"Join us for Minnesota’s first wooden boat Meet at the Beach. The event will occur on Lutsen Resort’s beautiful beach the weekend of June 16-17. All wooden kayak and canoe builders are welcome to bring their boats to show off and let others paddle them in the waters of Lake Superior. Every type of wooden construction is welcome from Stitch and Glue, cedar strip, skin-on-frame, and everything in between. And the event is open to the public and free.
What to Bring

If you’re a wooden canoe or kayak builder, bring your wooden canoe or kayak. If you have more than one, bring them all. This is a chance to show off your hours and hours of work. And it’s your chance to share your passion of building with others."
