Family Boat Building Week

June 20, 2021 - June 26, 2021

2021 Family Boat Building Week Is Currently Full. However, spectators are allowed! Stop on by and watch the process of boat building!

Are you looking for a great unplugged, out-in-nature experience with your family? Do you want to reconnect as a family while learning a new skill? Do it all on the shores of Mill Creek at Deltaville Maritime Musuem and Holly Point Nature Park this summer. Family boatbuilding is a hands-on experience!!This is the only remaining week long school, still using real wood planks, with a camp atmosphere and guided traditional methods. The workshop begins with the basic assembly of the Wright Skiff: sawing, sanding, hammering, applying adhesives. Each member of the team will contribute to the construction. By Friday the boat is painted and named.
