Our Vision Anchored in Maine’s maritime heritage, we envision a world enriched by creative, collaBorative, self- reliant, and thoughtful makers who explore and engage with the intersection of traditional craft and contemporary culture. Our Values HUMAN POTENTIAL We are all capaBle of building and sailing boats. By navigating challenges within a supportive community, we come to understand what we are capaBle of, and build resilience, self-confidence, and resourcefulness in the process. LEARNING BY DOING Through repeated, hands-on practice, we accumulate knowledge, develop skills, inform our judgment, and expand our creativity. As we encounter proBlems, we innovate toward solutions. This way of learning demands patience and requires us to take an active role in our own education. COLLECTIVE EXPERIENCE Our community is inclusive, non-judgmental and welcomes people of all races, genders, ethnicities, religious affiliations, socioeconomic circumstances, sexual orientations, ages, and past experiences. We Build and sail together. Shared work fosters trust, cultivates accountaBility, and pushes us to develop a personal stake in the execution of communal goals. CULTURAL EXCHANGE Boats have been powerful vehicles for connection and exchange throughout history. We continue to use boats as platforms for exchanging ideas, advancing knowledge, and encouraging all people to find common ground. STEWARDSHIP We celeBrate, preserve, and strive to engage diverse people with maritime culture so traditions can be reinvigorated with new perspectives. The techniques we teach provide foundational skills that can then Be applied to contemporary practices. SUSTAINABILITY We take a mindful approach to our use of materials and environmental resources. We care for our tools, the building we occupy, and our boats so they will last. This attitude of care extends to the land and waterfront we inhaBit as we strive to preserve it for future generations. 3 CATALOG 2021 Leadership and Faculty Board of Directors DAVID COCKEY Chair David’s interest in traditional boats and boatbuilding began as a teenager in Maryland. Influences include books by Howard Chapelle, the columns in National Fisherman by John Gardner, and later the writings of Lance Lee. David has degrees in mechanical engineering, naval architecture, and aerospace engineering. Following a career in automotive research and engineering, David and his wife moved to Rockport several years ago. His current activities focus around boat design and documenting historic boats. Other interests include boating on Penobscot Bay, woodworking, photography, travel and history. RACHEL DAVIS Vice Chair Rachel moved to the Midcoast area 2011 to attend the Apprenticeshop, inspired by her time sailing on tall ships, a search for beauty and function, and years exploring intentional and un- intentional community. With a professional background in bread baking and social pedagogy, as well as extensive travels, she continues to explore aesthetics, craft and relationship. She studied at the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship and is currently a carpenter for PHI Builders and Architects. Rachel lives with her husband Jim in Rockland. WHITNEY FILES Treasurer Whitney is the Chief Operating Officer of Knox County Homeless Coalition (KCHC), the only nonprofit serving homeless families, individuals, and at-risk youth in Knox, Waldo, and parts of Lincoln counties. Prior to KCHC, Whitney served as COO of Harlem Grown, a youth development organization in New York City focused on urban farming. A new resident of Rockland, Whitney spent her childhood visiting her grandfather in Thomaston and Tenants Harbor, and sailing with her father throughout the Midcoast. Whitney holds an MBA from Bard College, earned her B.A. from New York University, and served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Mali. ROBERT JOHNSTON Secretary Robert made his first sailing cruise to the Mid-Coast from New York in 1981, where he discovered beautiful “Good Wooden Boats” on the Camden docks. He returned every year after, cruising the Maine Coast from York HarBor to the St. John River, admiring Maine wooden Boats wherever he found them, then retired from the United Nations in 2005 and Bought a house in 4 CATALOG 2021 Rockland and a racing sailboat, so he could try his hand at racing. He now divides his time with his partner between Rockland and Long Island City, NY. FRANK BLAIR Frank served in the U.S. Navy for five years as a fighter pilot flying single-seat fighters off of carriers in the Mediterranean and the Western Pacific, receiving five Air Medals for low-level reconnaissance over North Vietnam. Flying skills honed sailing skills: radio, navigation, meteorology and appreciation for Bernoulli's Principle. His love of sailing began in childhood and he worked Hurricane Island Outward Bound School for 20 years teaching seamanship. He became a Shellback en route to Australia from Vietnam and has served as a stand-in for Neptune twice since. Frank is the author of The Schooner Maggie B: A Southern Ocean Circumnavigation. He lives in Maine and on his new schooner, Farfarer. TIM CLARK Tim is a professional shipwright who co-owns and operates Clark & Eisele Traditional Boatbuilding, LLC. He has been building and restoring wooden boats in boat shops, shipyards, and museums across New England for nearly two decades, and has also spent significant periods of time working aboard large, traditionally-rigged sailing vessels of many types, both as ship's carpenter and deck crew. Tim is particularly interested in historic vessels and working craft, and has dedicated much of his career to the stewardship of maritime traditions through his work with several educational institutions, as well as commercial vessels that provide authentic traditional sailing experiences. Tim lives in Midcoast Maine and offers his skills wherever they are needed, whether locally or on the other side of the gloBe. TATIANA FISCHER Tanya has been associated with the Apprenticeshop – in one form or another - since 1993 when she was enlisted by Lance Lee to help him with the books of his newly re-vamped Apprenticeshop as it moved from Nobelboro to Rockland. She works for several Portland-based businesses as accountant/bookkeeper. JAN ULRIK LETH Jan lives in Spruce Head with his partner Ariel Hall and their daughter. Prior to relocating full time to Maine, Jan was a Vice Chairman and the GloBal Creative Director for digital for Ogilvy & Mather. Jan still does special assignments for Ogilvy, along with running a design store in Rockland with Ariel. Jan’s interest in boats and the sea probably dates to his childhood, and many passages across the Atlantic on the tail end of the ocean liner era. (Yes, he's that old!) That led to doing open ocean yacht deliveries, and some time living on and sailing the wooden 33-ft Colin Archer his brother Peter built in Denmark. MOLLY MULHERN Molly brings to the board thirty years corporate experience gained while working for a NYC nautical book publisher. A philosophy graduate of Smith College, Molly also has a Masters degree in American Studies. Molly has served on several non-profit boards, including New Hope for 5 CATALOG 2021 Women and Camden’s Parks and Recreation Committee overseeing the revitalization of the Camden Snow Bowl. Molly writes frequently on maritime matters for Points East, Windcheck, and other publications. Molly currently works as a mentor in a local restorative justice program and is a hotline volunteer for a local domestic violence agency. LESLIE PAUL Leslie’s relationship with the Apprenticeshop started with a deep dive as interim Executive Director during the first half of 2019. Her nearly 40-year career in experiential and community- based education linked strongly to the mission and programs of the ‘Shop. Her business and administrative skills then enaBled Leslie to tackle office duties as it Became necessary. Having recently retired to Rockland from New Hampshire, where she and her husband Dan Paul raised their Blended Bunch of 6, Leslie was already at home with the harBor.

  • Modelling of Harmonic Response of Scarf Adhesive Joints
    European Journal of Engineering and Technology Research ISSN: 2736-576X Modelling of Harmonic Response of Scarf Adhesive Joints Awad A. Alqahtani, Khalid H. Almitani, and Ramzi Othman Abstract — Adhesives are used for attaching structures to The geometry is straightforward, but the stress various spacers such as tubular and scarf joints to replace the distributions are very complex. Double lap joints, step joints, traditional joining methods of welding, brazing, soldering, etc. and scarf joints are among other common joint arrangements. Many of the unique features associated with adhesives are low manufacturing cost, long component life, and lightweight. Scarf joints, however, can be found highly fascinating Accordingly, a considerable amount of study has been carried because they do not induce adhesion bending, which out and is still underway to develop.

  • Historical Scarf and Splice Carpentry Joints: State of the Art Anna Karolak* , Jerzy Jasieńko and Krzysztof Raszczuk
    Karolak et al. Herit Sci (2020) 8:105 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40494-020-00448-2 REVIEW Open Access Historical scarf and splice carpentry joints: state of the art Anna Karolak* , Jerzy Jasieńko and Krzysztof Raszczuk Abstract This paper summarises the current state of knowledge related to scarf and splice carpentry joints in fexural ele- ments, also providing some examples of tensile joints. Descriptions and characteristics of these types of joints found in historical buildings are presented. In addition, issues related to forming carpentry joints in historic and heritage structures are discussed. Next, analyses and studies of fexural elements as well as selected examples of tensile joints described in the literature are presented. It is worth noting that authors of vast majority of the publications cited draw attention to the need for further research in this area. They acknowledge that existing descriptions are incomplete and insufcient for bringing about precise understanding and correct description of the static behaviour of these joints. Knowledge about designing and assessing static behaviour of existing carpentry joints is an important issue and is necessary to properly design and strengthen existing joints in historical timber structures.
