Class teaches paddleboard building
The Tahoe Maritime Museum is offering a wooden paddleboard building course starting in June.
The course will use Chesapeake Light Craft Paddle Board Kits to construct either 12-foor-6-inch or 14-foot paddleboards. The boards are built from marine plywood using a stitch and glue method.
Space is limited, so register soon by emailing katena@tahoemaritime.org. The cost is $2,100.
Have you ever built a hollow core wooden paddle board before? I have! A true wooden board (not plywood or kit) takes a great deal of woodworking knowledge, skill, tools and patience. My board is available to see if you would like.
