Libby Small Craft is an artisan studio of woodworkers who love
boats, sailing and all things nautical. We specialize in small,
able boats of classic beauty that will provide a solid foundation
for low impact coastal adventures. Our combined boatbuilding
experience span decades, and ranges from the very traditional
to truly modern.
Not only builders, but also sailors, we know what you need
to embark safely on long and short expeditions in a small
wooden boat. We are based in the Northwest, with fantastic
cruising grounds right out the shop door. From Puget Sound
to Glacier Bay, Alaska, our travels along this convoluted
coastline has been the inspiration for nearly all the small
adventure craft we build.
We know about the challenges of current and wind and how
they affect your boat. How to organize gear and keep it both
dry and ready to use. When to sail or row, and whether you
need a boat that can be hauled up on the beach or is best
anchored. After years of voyaging in wooden boats we can recommend
a type of construction that will provide the best balance
between cost, weight, maintenance and performance, depending
on your requirements. |
