The photographs included on this site are among the approximately 700 black-and-white images I took when I attended the Bates Boat Building program from fall 1977 to spring 1979. In 2022, I donated all my boatbuilding photographs (negatives, contact proof sheets, a positive digital scan of each negative, and an edited, lower-resolution version of each image) to the Tacoma Public Library and transferred the copyright of all images to that institution, which at present has a “free use” policy.
While my website will not be maintained indefinitely, the images will be available online on a permanent basis through the ORCA (Online Records and Collections Access) web link maintained by the Library’s Northwest Room:
