The concept is simple: Teams of two build the same skiff design. They are graded on time of build, quality of workmanship, and speed on the water against each other. These are real boats!
OPEN TO ALL! Housing contractors, plumbing inspectors, paper-pushers, professional wooden boat builders, and general lay-abouts.
