Korey Ruben (Class of 2014) joins Sprindrift Ocean Rowing in Port Townsend, WA

10354698565_208c7e137f_bKorey Ruben has joined Spindrift Ocean Rowing and is using his well practiced craftsmanship to build modern carbon composite boats! Korey graduated with an Associate of Occupational Studies degree from the Traditional Large Craft program at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding with an emphasis on Yacht Interiors. Korey was known for his focus on meticulous detail and his disciplined work ethic. While studying Yacht Interiors he was confident enough to volunteer to build a beautiful ladder for his instructor using hand-cut joinery. That took a lot of courage and he did a wonderful job on the project. Best wishes, Korey, and congratulations on your boat building accomplishments! (See photo gallery below.)
