With his son Christian assisting, WoodenBoat founder Jon Wilson, soon after his return from the Annapolis Boat Show in 1974, works on an early issue of the magazine from his off-grid home office.
Maybe it was fate…or maybe just a happy accident. But Jon Wilson and The WoodenBoat, Volume 1, changed a lot of lives, mine included. It began for me on a bright warm, autumn day at Annapolis, Maryland, in 1974.
