âš“ Boat Builders, We Want You at the Wooden Boat Festival! đź›¶

The Wooden Boat Festival returns to Port Aransas November 6–8, 2026, and we’re inviting wooden boat builders to be part of this special celebration of craftsmanship, maritime heritage, and the traditions that make our coastal community unique!

🔨 Register your boat now! As boat builders register their vessels for the festival, we’ll be sending out VIP invitations to a special boat builders’ party! Don’t wait… register your boat and keep an eye on your inbox for your invitation.

Whether you’ve spent decades building wooden boats or are carrying on a family tradition, we’d love to showcase your craftsmanship and celebrate the people who keep this important part of our maritime history alive.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 And families, don’t forget! Sign up for our Family Boat Build for a hands-on opportunity to learn, create, and make memories together.

📅 November 6–8, 2026
📍 Port Aransas, Texas

Help us make this year’s festival one to remember! Share this with a boat builder who needs to be there.
