Welcome to the Silva Bay Shipyard School

The Tradition Continues…
Canada’s only full time, accredited training in Wooden Boat lofting, construction, joinery and marine cabinetry. The wooden boat school is located on Gabriola Island, in the Gulf of Georgia, a few minutes by boat from Nanaimo.
New Website!
The Shipyard school is growing – we have teamed up with a talented SEO/php developer, a visual artist and a professional photographer to bring a new, powerful, wooden boat destination to the web. We hope to be up and running very soon, so in the meantime check this space for student info, photo galleries and the class of 2010 build blogs.
