WELCOME TO HULL RAISER, a magazine that showcases the craftsmanship of students in our traditional and contemporary wooden boatbuilding and marine systems programs. This issue celebrates 40 years of craftsmanship
at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding. See how our $3 million investment in facilities and equipment from
2015 to 2021 has enhanced the learning environment for students. We also celebrate a changing demographic in the maritime trades: meet four trailblazing women who graduated from our Marine Systems program in 2020.
The Boat School is known for the range of new boats students build each year. In this issue we feature Moon Lady, a traditional Down East workboat, and Clean Bay, a contemporary workboat powered by e-propulsion. To learn more about e- propulsion, we followed up with electric-solar boat owners, naval architect Tim Nolan, and Marine Systems Lead Instructor Kevin Ritz about factors to take into account when considering installing an e-propulsion system.
We are happy to mail you a hard copy of the magazine. To request a copy, please email us at info@nwswb.edu.
