These olde time wooden row boats (and sail boats) are so lovely. Beauty in every detail. And the bliss to be out rowing connecting with nature. ....oh my.
I am a rowing guy from Germany, loving our old wooden Rhine rowing boats which we still have some in our Neusser Ruderverein. Looking your video, I was happy to see your wonderful wooden boats, doing your maintenance together, living your community in your boat club - is is nice to see. Perfect! Greetings from someone who also loves wooden boats like you!
As I'm searching for the next boat that I'll build, I want a classic rowboat. The Whitehall keeps coming up in almost any inquiry I do. The Whitewall is the quintessential rowboat with its classic lines and smooth running a perfect marriage of art and science. Thanks so much for this short film. The artfully presentation itself is the absolute narrative of the Whitehall. ❤
Yesterday I bought a 17 ft Whitehall that was handcrafted in 1977. Spent today sanding down the mast, tomorrow the gunwales and finishing. I look forward to having in the water next week.

Wendy, and team, beautiful job on this. As a member for at least six years, I was trying to do something similar but you captured it beautifully in your storytelling fashion. I will send this on to many people 🤩🤩🤩🙏🥰
