Friday respite. Over the summer Eddie Frank and I spent a day with Tracy Obert, Greg Stewart, John Gladstone, and the beautiful Stephens Waring designed and bui...lt ketch, Marjorie. She's a wolf in sheep's clothingdeceptively fast with a host of modern features tucked under her classic lines. Once again, Eddie with epic drone footage, and the edit by me. Enjoy #stephenswaring #woodenboat #woodenboatmagazine #koehlerkraftboatyard

We regret to announce the postponement of this year's 30th Annual Wooden Boat Festival. Due to current guidelines in place by the county we do not feel that we can hold the event at this time. The organizers are looking at rescheduling to an early fall date and hope to make that announcement in the next two weeks.... Thank you for your continued support as we all work through these unprecedented times.

Looking good Judy and San Diego Marine Exchange!

Nice to see three of our participants all side tied together at the Pacific Corinthian YC for the #McNish #ClassicYacht Regatta this weekend. We wish everyone the best of luck! Dock going out: K50 AKAMAI, 10 Meter SALLY and custom ketch MARJORIE ... #woodenboats #yacht #classicyacht #sailing #woodenyacht #regatta #sdwoodenboatfestival @pcyc_harbor @woodenboatmagazine @koehlerkraft @tiffanyyachts @jk3yachts @sdyc1886 @stfyc See more
