Worldwide Classic Boat Show 2022

Off Center Harbor is a wonderful provider of boat videos, and starting last year, they’re hosting an annual virtual boat show. This year they’re offering free tickets to the show.

EDIT: The show is over for this year, but check back next year.


We are pleased to share that our club and boats have been accepted to the 2022 Worldwide Classic Boat Show! The Show runs from February 18th-27th, and we thought you’d enjoy attending the Show. To top it all off, they’re giving away free passes right now!

The Show is 100% online (virtual) at ClassicBoatShow.com, so you can attend from right where you are, sitting in your favorite chair.

There will be over 1,000 of the world’s best classic and wooden boats at this online/virtual Show, all on an interactive world map. The map also features leading maritime organizations around the world, and there will be 6 excellent presentations by leaders in the field.

The Worldwide Classic Boat Show was created by Off Center Harbor (the premier video website for classic boating enthusiasts). Everything they do is first class. See you there!

An update on the kayak that was donated to us, and then passed along to the Vancouver Wooden Boat Society – they’ve been working on it in their (much more roomy) shop in New Westminster. Take a look back in their Facebook page for photos and video.


Also posted on their site is a video of some work done on the SS Master a year ago. Read some more about her on her site: https://www.ssmaster.org/, and join in on the Vancouver Maritime Museum’s online presentation on March 16th.

Finishes!

Last week we were busy applying varnish and paint, to both the new Acorn and our rowboat Vogler. The Acorn is looking amazing with the white paint and varnished Sapelle sheer strake!

The Vogler has new varnish on the thwarts and gunwales, and we’ve started with paint on the interior.

It feels great to be getting the boats to this stage. Thanks to Dale, Dylan, and Nick who came during the week to apply several coats of varnish!

Today was a gorgeous day, and it would have been a shame not to get out sailing. We’re having a bit of a problem with our insurance, and so our fleet is grounded for the moment. Thankfully, Arnt stepped up and brought down the sails for their boat, Anja, and took a few of us out for a wonderful sail! Before our insurance ran out last month, a couple of us got out for a January sail in Ragna and Enke. Hopefully things will get resolved soon, and we can get back to enjoying our beautiful little boats!
