Wooden Boat Association of Queensland

We are an association of enthusiasts with a shared passion for wooden boats. Within that general definition our members represent a broad range of boats. Our members enjoy designing, building, sailing, messing about in and talking about wooden boats.

The main objectives of The Wooden Boat Association of Queensland Inc. are: To foster and promote an active interest in all matters relating to the history, development and future, the building, restoration and preservation of wooden boats in Queensland. and: To encourage and promote contact with inter-state and overseas organisations with similar interests.
The Association was formed in 1990 by a small group of wooden boat enthusiasts. Meetings were held at the Queensland Maritime Museum (QMM) for a number of years, before shifting to the Brisbane Skiff Squadron at Quay Street, Bulimba, then later returning to the Queensland Maritime Museum. The WBAQ was incorporated in 1996.
