The child of Cambodian refugees Rita found her way to boats via a ‘curiosity of floating’. This led her to questioning, how do boats work? Having just completed a three month introduction to boatbuilding, this young shipwright is looking for an apprenticeship. Can you help her?

I must admit I’m slightly fascinated by the blooper as we used to fly one on the first keelboat I ever crewed, an S&S Defiance, in the 1980’s.
