Boatshop |
| Ground was broken for the boatshed in April, 2009. Within a month it was completed. Six posts support a frame for a canvas roof. Rafters act as lumber storage. A workbench and a "thinking" bench are on the west side. On the east side, the lofting "floor" is hinged to the posts -- it is raised to vertical for weather protection, lowered to horizontal for use. |
