What's New
There is a special place, a very special place where you can come and build or have built your perfect wooden boat. The Little Boat Shop is pleased to announce the opening of our shop in historic Bath, North Carolina.
In addition to our program boats listed in our "Build a Boat" Program we will be offering a wide selection of other designs as well. Here is a brief sampling:

These are a sampling of what we have planned. Of course, I would be glad to discuss any design with you if you have a favorite in mind. Most of these designs require a basic knowledge of woodworking but do not be intimidated as the instruction is on a one to one basis with myself as your instructor. The scheduling is flexible. Our program is informal and when your project is completed you can be sure that you will have a boat that you can not only be proud of but will have been built to the highest standards available today.
Space is limited and most of these designs will require that you spend the winter season with us to complete your project.
Each boat is individually priced and I would be happy to meet with you to discuss the costs. If you are interested in building your own boat please call to make an appointment to meet with me.
