Small vessel construction is an important aspect of Quebecers’ maritime culture. In the Musée`s Chalouperie, you will discover a considerable collection of longboats, canoes, rowboats and even more! Our master boat-builder will be happy to answer your questions and demonstrate a unique traditional trade.

Each year, during the summer season, Ghislain Pouliot, master boat builder, animates three two-day training workshops on wooden boat building. The dates and fees relating to the workshops are established each spring.

Unique in Québec, these workshops are an excellent opportunity to acquire knowledge “on the road to extinction.”
