“I start from the premise that no object created by man is as satisfying to his body and soul as a proper sailing yacht.”

– arthur beiser 1978, the proper yacht, “a boat is like a magic world, like a little island.”, – renzo piano, “i cannot not sail.”, – e. b. white, “boats, like whiskey, are all good.”, – r. d. culler, “the perfection of a yacht’s beauty is that nothing, should be there for only beauty’s sake.”, – john macgregor, “ships are the nearest thing to dreams that hands have ever made.”, – robert n. rose, “at sea, i learned how little a person needs, not  how much.”, -robin lee graham, “it’s out there at sea that you are really yourself.”, -vito dumas, “now voyager sail thou forth to seek and find.”, -walt whitman, “being on a boat that’s moving through the water, it’s so clear. everything falls into place in terms of what’s important and what’s not.”, -james taylor, “there’s nothing—absolutely nothing—half so much worth doing as messing about in boats.”, -kenneth grahame, “the goal is not to sail the boat, but rather to help, the boat sail herself.”, – john rousmaniere, “the gods do not deduct from a man’s allotted span, those days spent sailing.”, -ancient proverb, “there is little man has made that approaches anything in nature, but a sailing ship does. there is not much man has made that calls to all the best in him, but a sailing ship does.”.

NEW CONSTRUCTION

Artisan Boatworks’ team of master wooden boat builders have partnered with visionary owners to build more licensed replicas of Herreshoff designs than any other builder since HMCo closed its doors in 1944.

Over the past two decades our craftsmen have earned a reputation for the world’s finest custom replicas of classic daysailers, runabouts, launches, Downeast picnic boats, and rowing craft. For the true connoisseur of natural materials we employ traditional plank-on-frame construction, and for cutting-edge performance we excel in the application of cold-molded epoxy, sheathed strip, and carbon-fiber composites – all while maintaining the timeless beauty that embodies the spirit and intention of yachting’s greatest designers.

RESTORATION

No wooden boat with significant history and pedigree is beyond repair. Our team of restoration specialists has developed a renowned understanding of the research, appraisal, and approach necessary to return important heirlooms to as new or better condition, which is why the most discerning owners throughout the world continue to bring their projects to Artisan Boatworks.

Our particularly holistic approach to restoration is built on several decades of experience lofting and re-establishing hull shape and sheer, identifying and correcting short-sighted fixes and engineering deficiencies; and preserving original design details, materials, and techniques.

STORAGE/SERVICE

Our clients are extremely proud of their wooden boats, and recognize that specialized off-season storage and expert finishing are critical to their health, appearance, and performance.  The service department at Artisan Boatworks cares for over sixty of these distinguished wooden boats, rivaling the capacity of any such yard in the Northeast. Our greatest source of pride, however, is our reputation for the extraordinary level of individualized customer service, world class standard of finish, and custom tailored maintenance services we bestow upon each and every boat and owner.

From New York to Northeast Harbor – experienced wooden boat owners choose Artisan Boatworks’ full service “mooring to mooring” storage and maintenance program for our proven efficiency, accountability, and because we love the boats in our care like family.

The History and Allure of Maine-Built Boats

Oct 13, 2022 | Magazine , News , Sabre Yachts | 0 comments

When the term Downeast is used to describe a boat among certain company, there is always the potential for debate over the specific design attributes, materials and construction processes that have traditionally defined the category. Aficionados and purists may even tell you a true Downeast boat only comes from a small group of family builders still employing the original construction techniques from nearly a century ago. At any rate, most can agree that a Downeast boat is a uniquely handsome and classic form; originally born out of necessity for lobstermen to provide for their families, and now a genre adapted for maximum pleasure by a host of luxury yacht brands.

Mount Desert Island Historical Society

“Besides the gorgeous lines of the Sabre and Back Cove model range, owners enjoy wide and safe passages from the cockpit to the bow and vision at the helm is nearly unobstructed for a full 360° view.”

EXCEPTIONAL HANDMADE WOODEN BOATS

Handmade wooden boats are a timeless beauty - Cottrell Boatbuilders Searsport Maine

TIMELESS BEAUTY

Wooden rowboats exude a timeless appeal with their natural warmth and beauty. Crafted from carefully selected wood, these boats showcase the rich textures and grain patterns that only nature can provide. Whether it’s the sleek lines of our Maine Whitehall or the graceful curves of our Penobscot Wherry, our wooden rowboats stand out on the water with their elegant simplicity. With skilled artisans paying meticulous attention to detail our vessels are not only functional but also visually stunning. 

Cottrell Boatbuilders crafts premium quality handmade wooden boats with personal customizations

PERSONAL CUSTOMIZATION

Unlike mass-produced fiberglass boats, our wooden boats can be tailored to your design requests, allowing you to create a vessel that truly reflects your personality. Whether it is selecting unique wood species, choosing your desired colors, adding custom lettering, or perhaps a sail package, these personalizations not only foster a deeper connection between owner and vessel, but makes each handmade boat a truly one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

Wooden Boats provide a connection to Maritime Heritage - Cottrell Boatbuilders, Maine

MARITIME HERITAGE

From the graceful lines of a traditional whitehall to the rugged simplicity of working skiffs, wooden boats have played a vital role in maritime culture. Owning a wooden rowboat is not just about having a means of transportation; it's about preserving a piece of maritime history and connecting with the generations of sailors and craftsmen who came before. Whether it's exploring tranquil lakes, casting lines in coastal waters, or simply enjoying a leisurely row, the experience of piloting a wooden rowboat is imbued with a sense of timelessness.
