    I have been searching around the web for master wood boat builders; so far I have only run across Nick Schade. Does anyone have any recommendations?

    For Junk Boat, The Famous Thomas E Colvin dont do wood and prefer steel, Kong Fu Tze is a 48 ft version.

    Wooden version of junk boat can be purchase in Hongkong and Taiwan...... Singapore dont do junk boat anymore.

    world wide, I’m writing articles for an exhibition of master builders to promote the art form as inspiration to builders and enthusiasts.
