Looking for a place to visit with other Cedar Strip Boat enthusiasts? This is it!
Come spend a day with enthusiasts, dreamers, beginners and seasoned cedar strip boat builders!
See demonstrations of Cedar Strip Boatbuilding, and other facets of small wooden water crafts!
Bring your Newfound Woodworks Stripper!
This is a gathering of canoe, kayak, and row boat enthusiasts, many bringing their Newfound Woodworks designed cedar strip boats, sponsored by Newfound Woodworks, Inc.
Many attendees have built their strippers from Newfound Woodworks’ kits or plans and will have them there. Others will be there to learn low impact boating, which these strippers exemplify. Also, attendees will discover how to build these boats, see the boats in action, research their next project, learn safe use techniques.
Most of the people who have built these boats haven’t seen others, let alone a hundred or more examples of different designs, each with the builder’s own artistic flare incorporated into the process. This isn’t a beauty show; there aren’t judges or prizes for best-built canoe, kayak or rowing craft. On the other hand, there are some creations that stand out from the crowd.
