Quiet Water Symposium at MSU
The 2012 Quiet Water symposium is March 3rd at the MSU Pavillion.
Our own Richard Lincoln will be part of the Boat Build and Restoration Team and will be giving a presentation on Stitch and Glue boat building, better known as Taped Seam Construction. Here are some photos from a past year’s exhibit at the QWS when Richard shared a booth with Boat Builder Tim Fox of C Fox Wood Boats in Kent City, Michigan whom he apprenticed with for several years.
Here is a link with more information about the speakers and presentations.

Allen Deming wood boat builder and owner of Mackinaw Watercraft stopped by with 5 of his custom wood boats on a specially adapted truck bed on his way to art & craftsmanship show in East Jordan last month. At BrassWind Landing, we will be featuring custom wood strip kayaks and canoes from fine wood boat builder Allen Deming of Mackinaw Watercraft. Allen is building a very special strip canoe with inlaid trim to be displayed in our kayak showroom when we open later in August.
