Wooden Boat Festival presentations announced

Kaci Cronkhite will present Finding Pax, the story of her Danish spidsgatter. Kaci bought the boat from a young Canadian artist with a tangled, undocumented history of importation to LA, a sketchy mastless arrival in Sausalito, a fire, a night journey with a woman shipwright to a remote bay on Vancouver Island and without proof of birth. In June 2009, Kaci will travel to Denmark and Sweden to interview people who own boats with similar design detail, hull shape, and access to the microfilm where her mystery may be revealed. As those who own wooden boats know, the journey is much more than just sailing. It's a tale of love, passions, adventure and skills. Visit Kaci onboard the boat during Festival or year round at Center Dock, in Point Hudson. Finding Pax will be presented during the Wooden Boat Festival, September 11-13, 2009 at Point Hudson Marina.
