Boats 4 Folks 2015

This year is the first time we have the opportunity to experiment with adding new dimensions to our traditional "4 kids build boat in 2 days" programme (Boats 4 Folks). Up to now the event lasts two days and we occasionally see the kids bck in the shop.

We realized some time ago that we needed to do something to get them a bit more hooked on our programme hence the restoration of the Lightning and the outboard raceboats.

As usual we got four great kids and the weekend went really well.
