Wooden boat festival 2025

 Every two years Hobart hosts the wooden boat festival. As the name says it celebrates all things wooden boat related. In the past I have posted here and on Facebook and Instagram many photos from the festival's of years past. So here are just a few from this year.


This is the Endeavour. The most accurate wooden boat reproduction. I just loved these windows.




And there was a display of divers. It took a long time for him to be suited up by two men but it was very interesting to watch and see him climb down the ladder and then disapear under the water.
It was a very interesting day and lots of inspiration, I feel like I should be making some marine inspired work at the moment. A mermaid, boats, water?
