Work for one week in the Boatshop to build your very own kayak! This class uses commercially-made stitch and glue kits by Chesapeake Light Craft; several styles are available. The workshop will be taught by kayak designer Eric Schade who designs boats for Chesapeake Light Craft and has taught boatbuilding classes throughout the country.

Kits will be purchased separately; prices range from $700-$1500 per kit depending on the model. For more information about the class, and to discuss the models available, please email boatshop@maritimeme.org.

Workshop runs Monday, August 24 through Saturday, August 29 from 8 am to 4 pm daily.
