Classic Wooden Boat
Description
Historical Australian classical wooden boat data and wooden boat information resource. Featuring stories on wooden boat builders and their boats. Classic Wooden Boat is dedicated to classic wooden power boats and classic wooden yachts in Australia. Whilst there are many Wooden Boat websites, representing clubs, associations and the boat building industry, our intention is to create and maintain a central information repository that welcomes contributions on all aspects of significant Wooden Boats, wooden boatbuilders and wooden boat building in Australia. Please note that many of the boatbuilders listed are no longer living or their business has ceased operation, and no longer exists. Should you wish to contact a boat builder, still in operation, go to our links menu or contact the boatbuilder directly.
Our primary objective is to ensure that historical classical wooden boat data and wooden boat information is not lost to future generations of 'Australian Wooden Boat Lovers'.
Classic Wooden Boat, commenced business in 2003. Our original concept was to provide a historical data base of Australian Wooden Boats and Australian Boat Builders. Our new website and business, relaunched in 2016, offers the original concept, expanded with more information and graphic data. Our online store will provide stylish Wooden Boat apparel, boat photography, art publishing and much more. Our Brokerage for boat sales also provides on road and water delivery options, Insurance reports and surveys and design desk. Our Blog will keep you informed on all the news, views and clues from Classic Wooden Boat.

There is nothing as good as a fresh new wooden boat, as it leaves the shed in October 2008 after 6 years of planning, gathering and milling local Blue Gum and Iron Bark. The Paddle Steamer Curlip, lets hope the Friends of Curlip and P.S.Curlip Inc can rebuild her hull, devastated by TEREDO worms and return to this pristine condition.

As the author of Classic Wooden Boat and Chairman of P.S.Curlip Inc, I am asking our community to get behind this project to Save The Paddle Steamer Curlip. She is an asset of the people of East Gippsland and Victoria. A boat like this will never be built again, we need to preserve her history for our future generations. Please consider a donation or becoming a member or sponsor. THIS VIDEO IS THE REASON WE ARE REBUILDING THE HULL OF PADDLE STEAMER CURLIP. IT IS ALL ABOUT COMMUNITY SPIRIT AND RESPECT FOR THOSE WHO INVESTED SO MUCH OF THEIR LIFE IN THIS VESSEL. If you are looking for some great footage on the building and history of Paddle Steamer Curlip, this video runs for about 10 minutes. It is an important insight into how P.S.Curlip was conceived and built and outlines the reasons for building Curlip. Go to this link and scroll down to the Curlip Video. https://www.acmi.net.au/…/community-e…/east-gippsland-shire/ This video shows the importance of this vessel to East Gippsland and why we need to save her. Please share this and think about how you can help SAVE P.S.CURLIP.
