Brooklyn Boatworks Optimist Launch

Brooklyn Boatworks proudly launched and sailed their hand built Optimist Pram sailboats into the Hudson River today.  24 students from two Brooklyn, NY public schools worked on their boats all year, using hand tools and their own determination.   

The launch was a tremendous success, with all students getting a chance to sail their new boats, as well as getting a hour long sailing lesson on Brooklyn Boatworks’ parter organization Hudson River Community Sailing’s J24 fleet. 

Persak & Wurmfeld founded Brooklyn Boatworks in 2005 to give back to their local community.
