A GREAT START!
A great way to start off 2018 is to share the news that Wooden Boatworks' second Fife 8 Metre, Defender, which was launched in May 2017 has been nominated Best Traditional New Build by Classic Boat Magazine! If this sounds familiar at all, that's because Invader, our first Fife 8 launched in 2015 was the winner of the same award back then. We appreciate the recognition by Classic Boat.

The Wooden Boatworks page has been quiet lately, but it's quite a different story in the shops. We'll be updating you on all the activity in the coming weeks.

Out for a sail with the girls, yesterday. Classic Boat Magazine's editor, Rob Peake, shot this video of Defender, our May launch from the deck of Invader. Invader was voted Best Traditional New Build Over 40' for 2016 by Classic Boat's readers. We're happy to have Rob and Classic Boat in town gathering material for a story on Wooden Boatworks that will appear in an upcoming issue. We'll let you know when that happens. Good sailing with you, Rob.

A perfect day for a launch in Greenport, yesterday.

Oh MY!

Defender came out into the sun yesterday morning and made the trip east to Greenport where the final tweaks are happening before Saturday's launch. Rain, rain - stay away!
