Flood Report and Boat Shop Update, January 2024

How did we fare in the latest round of extreme high tides in the Northeast? Also: updates on boatbuilding projects in the shop, boats for sale, the resilience of black locust, what the boatbuilding apprentices are up to, and of course some boat shop history is peppered in.

A National Historic Landmark and working museum, Lowell’s is dedicated to preserving and perpetuating the art and craft of wooden boat building. In our boatbuilding and shop update videos, we're hoping to take you inside our living museum where we build new boats for clients, restore boats for other museums, and provide a space for events and on-the-water programs for all ages. Our museum is open for guided and self-guided tours. Visit lowellsboatshop... to see how you can become a member, attend a program, or get involved in boatbuilding workshops.

The best place to reside is within the soul of a community, just like I saw there, where a by-line of the people, the place, the air, and the contributions, is integrity. Warmed my heart guys.

Really enjoyed this update. Well done.

I was glad to see that you didn't have to bail the shop. Highest water I've ever seen on the Long Island Sound (Guilford) in 60 years (barring hurricanes of course) during the same weather episode you described. Local marshes become lakes!

Winona II (the Indian on the lawn) was trying to get free !!! (even though she has no bottom . . . .)

She gave it her best shot.

Have a student create "content" for You Tube (like this) every day. Post a couple every week and you will have lots and lots more "subscribers." ~ Just saying. 😉

[@lowellsboatshop]

We're aiming to create a library of videos that serves as a high-value extension of the museum's mission. Subscribers aren't as important to us as views and quality, to be honest! Thanks for watching, it's always encouraging to hear that you'd like to see more. -Anne
