The festival weekend is a long one for us. It seems like we never really stop talking for 3 days. But our local wooden boat festival is so much fun and the people who visit us are truly wonderful.\u00a0 It is great to see our customers, old friends, and make new friends as we all talk about something we are passionate about; boats.\u00a0 This year the Nesting Dinghy and the Non-Nesting dinghy were both well received by our audience.\u00a0 Our apologies to those who wanted to see the PT Skiff this year.\u00a0 We did not have one to show and had we had our thinking caps on straight, we might have arranged it.<br \/>\nI did not get many pictures this year either. I will include a few here and a video link that came to my attention this morning.\u00a0 Someone had a really cool drone filming the festival from above.
