Devlin Wooden Boat Builders Website mail@devlinboat.com Description: Id like to briefly introduce myself and Devlin Designing Boatbuilders. I'm just an average guy with a pervasive love of boats and the water. My Norwegian-Irish heritage may have something to do with it, or perhaps it was the "ship" bedroom complete with curved walls and seaberth that my father built for me as an infant, or maybe just the hours of play in a landlocked skiff at my father's marine store. Whatever it was it's indelibly etched on my being. Upon finishing my degrees in geology and biology and working a season on Alaskan tugs, I wanted my own boat. With that project, I was captivated with new ideas about boats. Though there is little new under the sun, I had lots of "what ifs" and "how abouts", and a burning desire to see what these ideas would look like and, most of all, how they performed. So in 1977 my wife, Liz, and I pooled our resources and started the business. We've grown from a backyard operation to a going concern with a good selection of boats in various sizes with a multitude of purposes. We have a good crew of craftsmen interested in producing a quality product they can be proud of. Yearly we produce between 20 and 40 boats from 8' to 45'. In 1982 we moved from Eugene, Oregon to Olympia, Washington to a shop on a lovely cove on Puget Sound where boats roll out the door, and down to the bay and sail, row or motor into the sunset.
