Graham McKay, executive director of Lowell’s Boat Shop in Amesbury, Massachusetts, will lead this three-day oarmaking clinic at Rocking the Boat headquarters in the South Bronx. The central activity will be the construction of a custom set of extra-long sweeps and spars for the new 38’ Bantry Bay Gig under construction at Lowell’s Boat Shop for Atlantic Challenge USA. The course will cover layout and shaping. This is a great course for those wishing to build hand tool skills (planes, spoke shaves, draw knives).
