Maine Built Boats: Art & Soul - coming to Mystic Seaport!

Gary Jobson, ESPN commentator, former America's Cup Tactician, lecturer and writer has spent a lot of time over the years in Maine, and has been filming a full documentary about Maine's boatbuilding industry since January. MAINE BUILT BOATS: ART & SOUL examines and celebrates Maine's 400 year old boatbuilding industry, visiting builders all over Maine. The builders talk about what makes Maine boats so special: the way they have fused new technology into their age old craft, the incredibly high skill level, work ethic and personal pride of each and every builder.
