Seattle...

Hi all,

I'm looking to get into boat design here in Seattle, specifically composite material design. Can anyone recommend a program or even a shop (that might take me under their wing) for building such boats? I've seen a lot of wooden boat building programs...

Thanks a bunch,
Woody

Chuck is a great guy and has a very good program but it is based south of Tacoma. You might also want to check out the Boat Building Program at Seattle Central Community College http://www.woodconstruction.org/boat-building.htm
