Community Tides ~ 11/04/22

(Airdate: November 4, 2022) The Community Boat Project is a job-training program aligned with the nearby Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding. Based out of Port Hadlock, Wayne Chimente and his talented crew of adult mentors provide hands-on, meaningful and organic learning experiences, by partnering with teens in unique programs that focus on real work, critical thinking, and human-social skills. Wayne is a Master Mariner, Master Rigger and Sailmaker, and he has 31 years in sail training. On-the-water programs with twenty different schooners and square-riggers throughout the world have given him and the Project a unique view of the horizon. Interns and students from the Community Boat Project have also been building tiny houses to help address the need for local transitional and affordable housing. Co-Hosts Chris Bricker and Siobhan Canty settle in for a great conversation with Wayne about the importance of all of it.
