Port Aransas Wooden Boat Festival


The Port Aransas Wooden Boat Festival was created by the staff and volunteers at Farley Boat Works eight years ago to provide a venue for showcasing the fine craft of wooden boat building.

The Festival celebrates a heritage that started locally in 1915 when the Farley brothers began making some of the first production fishing boats in the US right here in Port Aransas.
