general info | map & directions
The Center for Wooden Boats Maritime Museum offers an opportunity to experience the dimensions of an earlier time, to put your hands on the oars of a graceful pulling boat or the tiller of a traditional wooden catboat.

The Center for Wooden Boats is a hands on maritime museum. Its purpose is to preserve a rich, vital and varied small craft heritage by preserving both the artifacts and the time-tested maritime skills. Its aim is to provide an educational adventure, through participation, in the small craft heritage.
