Glade Zarn

Glade Zarn has had a passion for woodworking since he was a young boy, building custom furniture with his father in their wood-shop in Colorado. Glade eventually found his way into Fretwater Boatworks and has been building, repairing, refurbishing and designing boats there since 2021. Glade acquired his skills and knowledge of boat construction very quickly due to his passion for the crafts and his background in woodworking. Working and instructing alongside his wife Cricket Zarn and their mentor Brad Dimock has led to a great deal of excitement in sharing his passion for whitewater dory construction with skilled builders and novices alike.
