Oil Skin Hat

Look like a local. These are waxed cotton (waterproof!) ball caps, which are very popular in Sitka, Alaska, with our 8 feet or so of rain a year!

Very high quality caps, fully adjustable with a strap in the back. They have a gorgeous embroidered Sitka Maritime Heritage Society logo featuring the Shore Boat Arrowhead.

The Shore Boats were the iconic ferries that once connected the Japonski Island community of Mt. Edgecumbe with the town of Sitka, Alaska. A former US Navy tender, the Arrowhead had her superstructure built by boat building students of Mt. Edgecumbe High School.

Toy Boat Kit

$0.00

Sold out

We will have contact-free pick-up on Saturday, December 12, from 10 am to 2 pm outside the Japonski Island Boathouse.

Text when you come to 907 623-8054.

We can also mail you a kit (after Monday December 14th) - just choose the shipping option in the checkout.

(Shipped kits will just have the wood parts, not the paint.)

Because of limited quantities, we ask that you get one kit per kid.

Everything a kid needs to build and paint their own custom vessel. The hull is a little under 12 inches long. Have an adult help you glue the wooden parts together (hot glue is easiest but any glue will work) then customize with the included acrylic paint and brushes. Add your own touch with markers and stickers and stuff you have lying around like thread spools.

We'd love to see an image of your process or completed vessel! email it to sitkamaritime@gmail.com

Note: acrylic paint is permanent when dry, so be sure to protect clothes and surfaces.

Also, the natural wood and small parts make this suitable for kids at least 3 years old and up.
