HOWB 014 – Jake Beattie, Exec. Dir. Northwest Maritime Center - Interview - 12.22.11

This week is an interview with the exec. director of the Northwest Maritime Center and Wooden Boat Foundation – Jake Beattie. Jake began sailing an El Toro's when he was seven years old, spent time sailing the San Juans on his family’s sailboat, and then went off to college. After college he decided to “volunteer” for 2 weeks on the Tall Ship Bounty back east. One and a half years later he finished that “two week stint” and then moved onto the Tall Ship Denis Sullivan for several years. After that Jake became a Seamanship Instructor with Outward Bound, worked on freighters and tugboats and then spent 6 years at the Center for Wooden Boats in Seattle. While working at the CWB, he lived on the north end of Lake Union and his “commute” consisted of sailing or rowing across Lake Union while stressed out motorists were crawling along Interstate 5! (I’m a little jealous Jake – hahaha)

Jake moved to Port Townsend and started as executive director of the Northwest Maritime Center in January of this 2011. Jake’s a firm believer that “if you gain competency in a physical, real world setting, the skills you learn will have a profound impact on your life”. Best to you Jake!
