VESSEL MANAGEMENT
Cedar Wave restores, maintains, markets and operates classic wooden vessels for charter activities. We partner with vessel owners like you to create a way to offset some of the costs associated with owning classic wood boats.
As a classic boat owner, you know that vessels made of natural wood have far different requirements than modern plastic and sheet metal boats. Finding experienced shipwrights, corkers, carpenters, mechanics, electricians, painters, and other maritime tradesmen who are familiar with traditional wood boat construction is a tedious process in a dwindling industry. Sourcing traditional materials and authentic hardware to preserve the antiquity and longevity of a wooden vessel is another battle.
We specialize in preserving Northwest maritime history.
Since we are already in the business of restoring and maintaining wood boats on a commercial basis, we can make our services available to you at a more reasonable cost than full retail boatyards and marine service centers.
Boat Owners: If you own a classic wooden vessel and would like to make it available for charters, bed & breakfast sleep overs or dockside event space rentals, please give us a call. We might just be able to help you offset the costs of your dream.
Prospective Boat Owners: If you are thinking of purchasing a classic wood boat, we can offer buyers assistance and advice on what to look for and what to avoid. We also keep track of historic wood vessels seeking new owners. Whatever it is with regards to managing classic, historic and antique wood boat projects, give us a call, we are eager to help or at least steer you in the right direction.
Resorts & Other Water Centric Businesses: There is nothing that underscores a nostalgic maritime theme and builds quality brand awareness more than a well-preserved classic wood boat. If your water-centric business could benefit from the availability of a dedicated vessel for your clientele, then let us know about your desires. We can help waterfront resort properties, restaurants, real estate offices, and other waterfront businesses acquire, upgrade, maintain and operate vessels of any size.
Maritime Historical Organizations & Communities: Historic Northwest vessels are an increasingly rare commodity. These vessels attract visitors from miles around and help preserve the maritime influences of the region. Historic boats and ships often serve as an icon (and revenue attraction) for the communities and organizations that support them. We can advise and help set up cost effective programs to make this a reality.
