Malcolm McDougal of the Lindisfarne Bay Marina has helped us by providing free regular slipping of Terra Linna.
A large number of people and organisations have contributed to the Guild and its projects over the years since its formation. We thank them all for both large and small contributions! Without them, the Guild would not be able to do nearly as much as it has towards the preservation and encouragement of all things related to wooden boats.
Our sponsors are listed below. (All sponsors are shown, in random order.)
Hobart City Council
The Guild acknowledges and appreciates the lease we have with the Hobart City Council allowing us to occupy the Mariners Cottages. The City of Hobart Community Development Grants Program also provided us with a grant to upgrade this website.
Norglass Paints and Speciality Finishes
Norglass Paints and Speciality Finishes has kindly sponsored the marine paints and finishes for our circa 1880 yacht Terra Linna during the restoration and since the re-launch in 2012. The Wooden Boat Guild of Tasmania Inc. has been very pleased with the durability and quality of finish afforded our historic yacht by Norglass Paints and Speciality Finishes. As such, the The Wooden Boat Guild of Tasmania Inc. recommends that our members support Norglass Paints and Speciality Finishes by purchasing their products when they require paint and finishes for their own boats.
APCO Engineering
APCO Engineering have been very generous to the Wooden Boat Guild of Tasmania Inc. They have hosted the Guild at their Marine Engineering foundry and workshops in Derwent Park for tours and demonstrations of foundry, machining and engineering practices. As well, APCO Engineering have undertaken CNC Machining, Bronze Plaque casting for Terra Linna, CNC Machining of our Model blanks and designed and conducted classes for the making of clinker Piners Punt Models. On occasions members have been invited to CNC cut model blanks. The Guild and its members are most appreciative of the services APCO Engineering has made available. Members are encouraged to support our sponsors.
TasPorts
The Guild acknowledges the support given to us by TasPorts.
TasPorts is passionate about preserving and promoting Tasmania’s maritime history, celebrating our past, and enabling our future. TasPorts supports several historic vessels berthed at Constitution Dock in the Port of Hobart, including the Wooden Boat Guild of Tasmania’s Terra Linna and Clara, through their Community Partnerships program.
