Boat Building Academy Boat Launch
Just eight months ago this Class was learning how to
sharpen chisels and make dovetail joints. Now they’re making boats as part
of their training
on our intensive 38 week ‘Boat Building, Maintenance and Support’ course.
You can read what brought each student to the Academy
and follow the progress of the boat builds at
www.boatbuildingacademy.com.
The boats will be
led from the Academy’s workshops on Monmouth Beach to Lyme Regis Harbour.
Champagne corks will pop and each boat will be launched into the
water for the first time. The launch will celebrate the achievements of the
class, the end of their training at the Academy and the start of their new
lives as boat builders. the slipway -
This is an approximate time due to the scale of the event.
