HOWB 011 – Marty Loken, Wooden Boat Aficionado, Builder, Restorer, and Rescuer Extraordinaire - Interview - 12/01/11

This week I interviewed Marty Loken who owns the Island Boatshop in Nordland, WA (the boatshop is now closed and Marty is "retired"). Marty grew up around boats in Ballard, WA and from a young age, followed in the mentality of his dad – if you want a boat you simply build it. Marty was busy building his first wooden boat – a small pram – when he was 10 years old. Over the years he has refined his skills as a master builder. But he is also super passionate about rescuing old wooden boats – saving them from the landfills and chainsaws and restoring them to new condition. Over the years, I've personally witnessed Marty restoring and building dozens (if not hundreds) of boats! Each one is a work of art :D
