Amy Stringfellow
Wooden Boatbuilding
Amy Stringfellow is teacher, boatbuilder and maker across wood trades. She has worked on a mixture of traditional and modern vessels, enjoying the variety of materials and techniques. She studied at the Falmouth Marine School, followed by work experience at boat yards in Devon and Cornwall spanning her 14 year career. In a predominantly male world, she is starting to see a shift: ‘When I first started out as far as I knew it was just me; these days things are getting better, and we are seeing more women across the industry.’
