Hi, my name is Brad. In 2008, after decades of having nowhere to build large objects, I built Fretwater Boatworks. We build a lot of boats-many on consignment, and some just for the fun of it.We believe in traditional framed construction, for both strength and aesthetic reasons. We frame with traditional Port Orford cedar. We use top-grade marine plywood for decks and hulls, and eastern ash for gunwales.
