History
Wooden Boatworks is a full-service wooden boat yard specializing in the construction, restoration, and care of plank-on-frame yachts. Located at the historic Hanff’s Boatyard in Greenport, NY, in the shelter of Stirling Harbor, we take pride in carrying on the boatbuilding legacy of; Ketcham, Hanff, Koch, Costello, and most recently Costanzo & Wahl. The distinctive ring of caulking irons and the smells of wood shavings, hemp & pine tar continue to emanate from our yard.
