American Dream: Own a Wooden Boat

Or Dreams of Owning Your Own Boatyard!

By Norma Jaeger Hopcraft


In Old Mystic, CT, there's a mysterious place that reconditions old wooden boats.




Here's the main building of the boatyard. I love the upstairs balcony and the writing room at the top!



This is an outhouse made from the bow of a boat.

View from the side: you can see the original portholes, the red keel...


It's not made of wood, but it's a boat, so it belongs.

In a shed is this boat with a lovely hull. More next week!
