Mothership Marine is totally committed to the environment.  It’s not just the trees, it’s everything that lives in them and depends on them together with the quality of the air that we breathe.  By using reclaimed timber we are doing our bit to preserve the natural world. A wonderful consequence of using reclaimed timber is that it adds patina and time to the boat and means that your boat will have a feeling not dissimilar to an old thatched cottage.   Working with reclaimed timber is more time consuming and it will reflect in the total cost of the build.  But on the upside if you ever damage the wood a simple rub down and coat of finish will only add to the patina.
