HOWB 089 – Interview | Jay Smith on Trunnels and Nordic Boat Building - 05.30.13

Today’s interview is with Jay Smith of Anacortes, WA. Jay studied Clinker boat building in Norway when he was in his 20’s then moved back to the US and has continued building traditional lapstrake boats for the last 30 plus years (for more on Jay’s personal history listen to my previous interview with Jay at HOWB 007).

One of the projects Jay is working on is a 56ʹ viking ship which is being being fastened with traditional hand made wooden trunnels. Jay is machining the trunnels from Pacific Yew – a dense, rot resistant, and flexible wood, which was prized for long bow construction in medieval England.

In the fall of 2012, Jay traveled to Europe and and met with traditional boatbuilder John Macaulay of the Isle of Harris in Scotland. John has been building all his life, and specializes in lapstrake construction that was influenced by the Vikings beginning in the 8th century.
