The world’s traditional boats are examples of the kind of folk wisdom and "intricate tricks of self-sufficiency" that we wish to encourage and advocate for in future generations. Evolved over many centuries to better handle the demands of a specific fishery, for more efficient transport, and to stand against the constant strains of the ocean and coastal weather, traditional boats often share a design ethos which is “characterized by sustainability, the interdependence of man and nature and the mutual dependence of communities at the edge of survival.”

Maritime World Expeditions wants you to experience first hand the joys and genius that are the world's traditional boats. Come join others in celebrating these wonderful designs and build an international community through exploring these boats and the region they are from.

"Building and using a small wooden boat helps wonderfully to reestablish and strengthen connections with the natural world that so many of us have lost or are in increasing danger of losing. Wind and water have not changed and the age-old workings and needs of the human body and psyche remain the same and cry for expression and fulfillment in a cold world of artificial abstractions and flickering images." – John Gardner
