Instructor Peter Bailey – caulking a plank seam


This video shows Instructor Peter Bailey caulking a plank seam. Peter is a master shipwright who is an inspiration to students at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding! He is working on a Hanson-designed Forest Service scaler boat, a vessel historically used to navigate around log jams and shorelines in the Pacific Northwest. This boat has given the Traditional Large Craft Program ample opportunity to practice their skills in planking and caulking! Thanks, Peter, for modeling the caulking process!
