SBS Live 7/22/21 - A Road to Boat Building – Hobby to Career Success![]()
![]()
Childhood dreams often come true in our adult lives. That certainly is true for Richard “Bud” LeMieux, a self-taught boat builder, who turned his childhood hobby of boat building into a great-paying job and career later in life. Bud constructed six vessels before finishing high school, including an eight-foot pram and an eighteen-foot power catamaran. Continuing his hobby part-time during college, he decided to turn his boat-building skills into a career. Join Waggoner and NMTA hosts to hear Bud share his journey from boyhood dreams to adult success as one of the world’s most celebrated boat builders and recognized boat-building entrepreneurs. Bud is the founder of Northern Marine, which constructs luxury yachts, superyachts, and commercial fish boats in the Pacific Northwest.
We'll see you tonight from 5-7pm at Seattle Boat Company Skylaunch Marina on Lake Union and out on the lake for our first edition of PonTunes with Panessence Steel Drums! And tomorrow night we will be at Port of Everett aboard the Northwest Fishing Derby Series Grand Prize Boat cruising around and playing tunes from 4-6pm. See you there!
