For those who were not able to make it to Hobart in early February, here is a sneak preview of a very small number of the craft on show at this year's AWBF.
No doubt more photos will be available on the AWBF website later, presumably when the staff and volunteers recover from a very busy four days.
The photos show some of the workmanship, some unusual designs, some historic vessels and some brand new ones, and an ingenious means of propulsion. Who would have thought that adding a steam engine to the drive unit of an outboard would work?
The last photo shows my own small contribution to the festival. The two kayaks in the foreground are my latest low volume sea kayak and my very stable racing K1. Built from Paulownia strips, they weigh 11kg and 8kg respectively.
