I am helping with the teaching in a ten day boatbuilding school in Adelaide Australia.
10 boats 12 students – all off to a flying start.
Most are from interstate. Varying levels of skill. Most haven’t built a boat before. A couple have woodwork or home renovation skills.
I will post more info here a bit later. Most boats are Oughtred – one Storer Eureka, a Lillistone Pheonix III and a beautiful Liz Rowing scull.
The last is like a bit of jewellery.
It is well worth seeing – goes until Thursday or Friday next week – visits welcome 9 to 4 (so we have time to tidy up before and after. We are in South Australia
25 Secker Rd Mt Barker (about a 35 minute drive from the city).
Boatbuilder heaven.

I’ll add a lot more each day and will gradually add some comments.
