All Hands Boatworks

All Hands Boatworks BUILDING MORE THAN A BOAT! All Hands Boatworks is a non-profit focused on youth development.

ALL HANDS BOATWORKS, INC., currently works with middle and high school students (gr. 6-12) to enhance their learning, encourage academic success, and foster positive youth development. AHB offers a highly sequential 1, 8, or 16-week project to build a beautiful wooden boat out of a pile of lumber and reinforce math skills. Students experience the collaboration and pride of craftsmanship that comes about from building a tangible product with their own hands.

Our small-group work between students and instructors is at the heart of our after-school RAFT program for teens. 🤍

We make it look so easy when played in fast forward 💪.
Congrats to Carter and everyone else for getting the latest restoration project flipped and ready to finish the inside! Like every project, this one had a lot of surprise challenges, but this 1960s Commander's Inc Cruiser is looking awesome, and about ready to hit the water!

Join us for the Spring Session of Women's Boat Building! We've finished making the strong back and molds for the tiny skiff. They are sturdy, beautiful, and perfectly faired on the first try!

Oh, and happy belated International Women's Day 💪💞
