Wooden Boat Restoration LLC

Wooden Boat Restoration LLC I started in the wooden boat field 30 years ago. Moving to Fishers Landing and working at Hutchinson Boat Works.

It was quite a change from building cabinets to restoring boats. Spent two years learning everything the old boys would teach me. Learning not only the craft of restoring boats but life on the river as well. I'm not sure what I enjoyed more learning the job or how to make fish chowder. It was one of the best experiences working with six men of the trade that took me under their wing and taught me

the life I live today. Leaving Hutchinson's and working at a few other shops I eventually built and opened my own shop. Several years of running a one man shop made me think I need a bigger shop. I partnered up and opened Wooden Boat Specialties. Seventeen years of hard work ended when my partners left. I have stayed and opened Wooden Boat Restoration myself and we are having one of the best years of my career. We have several skilled employees and are capable of working on a dozen boats at a time in the sixteen thousand square foot work shops. From show boats to your dads old fishing boat we do complete restorations.
