Wooden Boats for Veterans


Our Boats
Part of our Strategy is employing classic wooden boats to augment what WBFV owns in order to reach as many veterans as possible, and to train them on a range of sailboats to broaden their knowledge. In this way we are developing the eventual team that will take Clover to Hawaii in 2026
