In January 2021, CLC professional boatbuilder Travis Guthrie began work on a Peeler Skiff. In addition to being a skilled and talented boatbuilder, Travis also is a very good teacher and a popular instructor in our build-your-own boatbuilding classes. During this Peeler project, along with his usual top-notch boatbuilding, Travis has been sharing photos and commentary -- even some good video -- of the process.
