WHAT WE BUILD From the very large scale sailing vessels to small prototypes we build vessels that will withstand the test of time. Our methods are traditional in only one sense of the word, we insist that our wood vessels be constructed out of the finest materials available. The particular material types are always changing, but generally we use plywood to create the types of things seen on this page and throughout the website. Innovation is the key in our quest toward making boat construction more environmentally sound. We are successfully introducing a wood called “Airheart” to the craft of catamaran building, we have built the first boat in existence made out of bamboo plywood and the first “Airheart” canoe. Both Bamboo and “Airheart” are harvested from tree farms and represent the future of wood/epoxy composite technologies that are being pioneered at the Greenhorn Boat Shop. “Epoxy has about 75% fewer V.O.C.’s (volatile organic compounds) than polyester resin and about two-thirds fewer V.O.C.’s are released when it cures. Epoxy resins can also potentially be derived from from several types of plant resources, including sugar and agrigum (wild desert plant).”-(Surfrider) BASE CAMP MOUNTAINS GREENHORN BOAT SHOP EXPEDITIONS T-SHIRTS THAT DONT SUCK FILM SAILING CONTACT “If we do not change the direction we are going we are likely to end up where we are headed.” -Chinese proverb GREENHORN FORWARD AFT SITE LEGEND EXPEDITIONS BASE CAMP T-SHIRTS THAT DONT SUCK GREENHORN BOAT SHOP CONTACT FILM PHOTOGRAPHY MOTIVATION MOUNTAINS SURFING THEORY SAILING FOUNDING BROTHERS MISSION STATEMENT WANTED POSTER COMPENDIUM PROJECTS AXIOM APPRENTICESHIP
