Phil had no previous boat building experience, he taught himself the skills and knowledge through research on the Internet and found help thanks to the friendly community in our forum, you can follow the progress of his Coracle building project from the raw materials to finished boat on this forum thread: http://www.naturalbushcraft.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?804-Making-a-Coracle
Natural Bushcraft is a personal project aiming to provide a free bushcraft resource available to everyone.
Sharing Bushcraft Skills and Knowledge Freely regardless of age or status is important to me.
