Family Boatbuilding
15/September/2011 22:27
This is a new venture for the NZ Traditional
Boatbuilding School.
The objective of ‘Family Boatbuilding’, is to provide an opportunity for families to come together and work as a team on a project.
The benefits of this project are multiple, but first and foremost is the time spent together as a family and as a team on a fun project, adding a dimension to family life often missing in today’s busy family.
‘Family Boatbuilding’ presents an opportunity to work together in a field usually left to the experts and to meet and work alongside other families.
The ‘Family Boatbuilding’ experience has the added bonus of having a tangible outcome; a boat of choice that can be used by all the family.

Seamew
is an
H28 yacht that was kindly donated
to the school by Roger Faraday with the idea of
tidying her up and finding her a new owner and
raising funds for the school and it’s teaching.
Marco Scuderi has started repair work on Seamew and we hope to have her all tidied up ready for the coming season.
This vessel is for sale and would make a great family or first time yacht. Options are available to finish the refit in our yard or to purchase in sail away condition. To view or make enquiries about Seamew please contact Tanya on 416-1023 or contact us.
