Toledo Community Boathouse

"Andrew Linn Boat Shop"​

The first boathouse serves primarily as a carpentry shop for boatbuilding. 

Volunteers have built over 100 small wood boats here under direction of the former volunteer director Andrew Linn. Some of the canoes and kayaks are used by the boating program and others boats were sold to provide funds to purchase materials for the next boat building project.  This shop is also used by the Teak Lady Society for its work to maintain and preserve the Port’s two Teak Lady sloops.
