Hooked On Wooden Boats Podcast | Celebrating the Art, Craft, History & Tradition of Wooden Vessels Worldwide show

Summary: PODCAST SHOW NOTES - Episode #009 Rich Kolin Interview - Wooden Boat aficionado! This week I interviewed Rich Kolin who lives on Camano Island, WA.  Rich began building boats as a young lad in California under the tutelage of influential builders and designers John Gardner and Pete Culler.  Eventually he moved to the northwest where he continued to hone his boat building and designing skills, began teaching classes and wrote several books.  Oh, and did I mention he learned the art of carving along the way!  This is one talented dude - be sure and listen to the interview (click on green player button above)!   Here's some pictures of Rich's work (click on picture to enlarge):             You can reach Rich at 360 659-5591 or email him at kolin1@wavecable.com  Listener Questions and Other Bryan Hansen called in a question LAST WEEK: "Where do I get my hands on a copy of the History Channel video - THE BIG BUILD - which documents Jay Smith building a 21' Viking long boat?" Bryan - I can't find it.  CAN ANYONE HELP WITH THIS?????? Next Week - Suprise! Don't miss my show next week?  I promise it will be a doosey...... Come back next Thursday for more! Want to help?  Please leave feedback! My goal is to build a community of folks who want to connect, learn, and have fun with wooden boats.  Your valuable feedback will help me do just that.  Please tell us about a wooden boat you have built or owned and why it was so special.  You can answer this question on my website comment section, email me: Dan@Hookedonwoodenboats.com, or call our feedback hotline at 424 261-2360.
