“I didn't know quite what I was getting into--or how I had come to Wooden Boats for Veterans to begin with, but I got a wild idea somewhere about sailing and wooden boat building and it seemed a good place to start.
But it's more than just a handful of hours during the week spent laboring aboard Clover under the expert and colorful direction of Fergus "The Bosun" Moran; more than just sailing in the San Francisco Bay. It became an opportunity to come together with fellow Veterans from all wars, and to be placed among people and places that support Veterans in general, and specifically, organizations like WBFV. ”
Brian, US Navy SEAL, OIF. OEF veteran
“I am so proud to be affiliated with WBFV. The members have given Veterans who’ve participated a renewed sense of purpose and vigor in learning about the sea and how a sailboat moves through the water. I wholeheartedly endorse their program and recommend without hesitation that they be supported so as to fulfill their objectives toward healing veterans.”
Mike, US Navy Vietnam Veteran, Retired San Francisco Firefighter
“Terry and WBFV have created a meaningful program for us to partner with in the service of restoring Veterans in our program to thriving and productive citizens. We are so grateful for their support.”
