We can take the bottom off, assess, and let you decide if continuing is worth it to you. We do this so that you do not feel locked into a full restoration and because we are confident that if or when you decide to continue, you will decide to continue with us. And our open workmanship policy and emphasis on keeping our customers in the loop will let you rest easy knowing that we can continue at your pace, and that your baby is in good hands. The Lakeside wooden boat Society was established in 2005. The mission of LWBS was inspired by the role of wooden boats in Lakeside Chautauqua’s history, the art and beauty of wooden boat construction and the passion of Lakeside Chautauqua wooden boat owners. Today, the development and health of the lakefront are important parts of their mission.
Steve’s passion for wooden boats along with his experience really shows in his work. We are able to fit boats of up to 30′ in length into our shop, and no job up to that length is too big or too small. From a simple scratch repair to a full restoration, LRWB is dedicated to helping you experience the fullest enjoyment and confidence in your wooden boat.
The projects are guided by shipwright and lead instructor Wayne Ford along with a team of experienced volunteers. Interested in supporting North House’s mission by providing a donation?
