Founded in 1967, CABBS brings together people who share a passion for building, sailing, paddling, and motoring in boats. Visitors are always welcome at CABBS activities.
Guest speaker Dave Steehler, Luxury Yacht Captain. Dave has spent the last 30 years as the captain of luxury yachts owned by the rich and sometimes famous. He is currently in town addressing mechanical issues aboard CANIM, a 98ft. wooden motor yacht launched in 1930 and once owned by Buster Keaton. In May, he is scheduled to take the vessel to San Diego via the Panama Canal. Is that enough to whet your interest? Dave will cover many subjects from his life afloat.
The CABBS Six-Hour Canoe boatbuilding class will start March 3, 2018. Over five consecutive Saturdays, you will build a boat. Interested? Follow along here.
