This coming weekend is Bald Eagle Days for Cathlamet, Wa. The Wooden Boat Festival is part of it. Welcome Slough Boatworks will be showing four boats this year. “Rachel” 19′ LOA cuddy cabin Pelicano, “Vanessa” 18′ LOD Gaff Rig Sloop Eider, “Lil Caleb” 7′ 6″ Dinghy Polliwog and Henry & Craig’s Work Boat 16′ LOA Garvey. I will take photos of all four at the show.
The two photo are of Vanessa towing Lil Caleb with me and my friend Mike Duley and the other is Josey and me rowing Lil Caleb to where Vanessa is moored. Both boats are on there way to Elochoman Marina, where the Wood Boat Fest will be held. It’s a short 4-5 mile run.
