The Center for Wooden Boats

Hands On History

Experience the history that’s written in boats.

The Center for Wooden Boats is a living museum. We encourage our community to experience heritage in a way that you can sail, build, and explore. In thanks to the opening of the Wagner Education Center, The Center for Wooden Boats is now able to put more of our collections on display. From dynamic gallery installations to boat hanging exhibits, CWB is able to offer a peek into the world of maritime heritage like never before.
