Small Craft Workshop on the Water!

John Gardner Small Craft Workshop

Wonder what it's like to row a whitehall, sail a beach skiff, or to build a small wooden boat? It's a time to get out on the water and try out a wide variety of small craft. This is the place to discover a wooden boat plan you can build and enjoy.

This yearly event at Mystic Seaport brings both experienced and first time boat builders together. Access to the Ships Plans Library and the Watercraft Collection compliment the workshops and provide plenty of inspiration!

John Gardner left a wonderful legacy of enthusiasm for traditional small craft. This first weekend in June celebrates his teaching and his encouragement.
