Wooden Boat Women > Seeking Women the Trades

Port Townsend probably has more licensed women Captains per capita than any other city in the United States. Because of the high percentage of women in on-the-water leadership roles, you'd think there would also be a high number of women in the trades on-land. Please write and tell us of women you know, in the trades. Here are a few:

Diana Talley, shipwright. Owner of Taku Marine in Port Townsend.
Julia Maynard, co-owner, Haven Boatworks, Port Townsend.
Carol Hasse, owner, Port Townsend Sails, Port Townsend.
Lisa Vizzini, co-owner, PT Rigging, Port Townsend.
