Since being delivered in 1957, she has been a focal point at The Plimoth Plantation, welcoming visitors onboard to give them a sense of what life onboard was like.

2018/09/13

Rocking the Boat started in 1996 as a volunteer project teaching East Harlem junior high school students how to build wooden boats after school and over the past 20 years it has grown to offer programs in sailing, rowing and environmental studies as well.

2018/09/04

When Jon Wilson published the first issue of WoodenBoat Magazine in 1974, the number of his employees, (him, his wife and their toddler son) outnumbered their subscribers, two.
