28209: Binard: News Haiti Sloops article Wooden Boat Magazine (fwd)






From Marc Binard  islandoc2001@yahoo.com

The March issue of Wooden Boat magazine has an
excellent article on Haitian wooden boat building on
Haiti's north coast.

The author, Ted Okie, spent a month sailing in Haiti
aboard his 25 ft wooden sloop studying the traditional
wooden boat building methods of Haiti's boatbuilders.

This article offers an excellent overview of a quickly
disappearing art and a rare positive press on Haiti.
The pictures are incredible.
