Welcome to the Village Boat Shop, a boatbuilding and woodworking shop available for the building and repair of plank on frame and lapstrake wooden boats.  Half hull models and other wooden items are also available.

Boats to 30 feet in length will fit inside the shop and certain projects can be finished outside. Prepping, painting, and varnishing are also available. If you are looking for a new boat or would like your old boat put back into service or just commissioned for spring, please call or email.

Current Projects:

1959 Lyman 17 footer in for stem, frame, and plank repair.

Recent Projects:

John Gardner Whitehall rebuild. She is for sale! $9,400.00

1956 Century Resorter in for a new bottom, structural repair, and varnish.

Tygart Lake Boat complete rebuild.

In between current repair work, I will be building a 17 foot flat bottom inboarddiesel skiff.

I have also recently drawn plans for a center console lobsterboat hull. These hulls will be powered by Betamarine or Yanmar marine diesels.
