Woodturning Vacation Cruise 2011

Woodworking…exciting and new…come aboard…we’re expecting YOU!

It’s the Woodturning Cruise 2011 vacation that you’ll never forget.

This is better than going aboard the Love Boat! Combining the love for woodworking and a fun vacation across the beautiful Artic Circle to the North Cape and Norway is a once in a lifetime opportunity. The cruise ship MS Gann is your host for 2 weeks on the high seas, complete with a 24 hour buffet…

…many portage stops and sites like the Lofoten Islands

…and the Torghatten mountain on Torget Island…

…also an entourage of experts, such as Jimmy Clewes to teach, lecture and demonstrate woodturning, chip carving, woodcarving, wood burning, and routing…

 According to chip carver Wayne Barton, alias “Mr. Carvus Maximus”, who will also be one of the teachers aboard this cruise, “We’ll be heading to the highest point north that you can sail while doing a little midnight fishing off the deck for our ships menu, as we stare at the North Pole and fantastic scenery!” Barton also stated, “The ship gathers a great group of people with a common interest in woodworking while enjoying wonderful comradery, and working in the ships hold containing over 12 lathes for woodturning lessons and projects.” Additionally Barton said, “As the ship docks on each port visit, the mainlanders come aboard the MS Gann to enjoy and purchase the woodworkers products that are not normally or easily available to them, so this opportunity brings the retailers to the customers.” Click on the photo below for more on Wayne Barton…

 There are still inside cabins, and a few outside cabins available for as little as $2109 USD to $4203 USD, now discounted at 30% off the normal price.
