In the relentless hunt for weblogs featuring traditional boats, tonight I bring you an American offering from the Stoney Creek Boatshop. The trick with this one is to look out for the links to photoalbums, including the one on restorations and repairs, including two of a Snipe and a Windmill. This particular shop’s main business is building new boats to old and old-style designs.

Gavin Atkin's weblog for the sort of people who like looking inside boat sheds. It's about old boats, traditional boats, boat building, restoration, the sea and the North Kent Coast
I can testify to the quality of this shop’s work. The boats are simply items of furniture that happen to float. I got the opportunity to sail his “Lesson One” last spring. A few pictures can be found at:

Great pictures Dale – everyone, please go and have a look.
