I once heard it said that, “If God wanted us to use fiberglass boats he
would have made fiberglass trees.” I am
pretty sure even if God were to have an Arc built today it would still be hand
built from wood. Thankfully there are
still highly qualified craftsman dedicated to that most classic boat building ingredient;
craftsman like Mike Kiefer of Great Lakes Boat Building Company. Not only are Mike’s creations timeless and striking,
they are somewhat famous. His vessels
have appeared in both Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events and
Pirates of the Caribbean. Check out the
video of Mike at work after the jump.
After the video check out Great Lakes Boat Building Company to daydream
they remainder of your Friday; hopefully you have a boat trip planned for the
weekend.

Did you check out the article for "Dads 'Ol outboard Skiff" linked on the GLBBC website? Pretty sweet skiff design. Maybe the next garage project after cleaning it out of course!
