Boats built to outlast
the people who built them

Across the lakes of the Adirondack Park, a small number of builders, restorers, and third-generation boathouse owners are keeping a century-old craft alive - one hand-planked hull at a time.

WOODYS follows the people behind these boats: what it takes to keep a 1948 hull on the water, why the varnish work never really ends, and what gets lost if nobody keeps doing it.
