Legacy Report 2024

It’s Starting to Look Like a Boat!

Premiere Date: June 20, 2024 Format: 1 x 60-minute documentary

Description

He’s not Noah, but Don Carlson has the passion for woodworking and fishing in the great lakes of Minnesota. So, he decided to put his tools and hands to work building his own wooden, tunnel hull, fishing boat. In this documentary, we follow this three-year long project in Don’s Bemidji garage, as he builds his dream boat and sees it successfully take to the blue waters of Minnesota.

Impact

This project fulfills the goals of Legacy funding through cultural and historical preservation of a craftsman’s work through visual and verbal documentation by following the builder through the entire process of the project. By distributing this content to the masses and making it available and free to everyone to watch, we will hopefully inspire others to pursue or continue their own crafts regardless of skill level and also educate and entertain viewers about the topics of woodwork and craftsmanship.
