A week from today, Friday 25 June, the 19th annual WoodenBoat Show will begin at Mystic Seaport Museum in Connecticut. It will be the third year in a row this three-day show is being held at the Mystic Seaport, and it is a must-go-to-event if you are interested in new or old wooden boats. It is as it says on the museum’s web site: “In addition to beautiful boats in the water, visitors can enjoy browsing through tents and extensive land exhibits which include boat builders, sail makers, marine adhesive and coatings companies, boat schools and associations, maritime art and antiques, tools, wooden boat hardware, nautical gear, books and innovative items.”
