The Hidden Treasure of the Miami Boat Show

We discovered a hidden treasure at the Miami Boat Show this week.

"Kids Aboard Workshop"



A booth hidden all the way in the back of the Strictly Sailing Show Miami was a real gem that the next Boat show needs to showcase.

Curtis Tucker and his family run a teaching workshop for children. Teachers as their profession, they teach all the disciplines of academic studies ( Math, Science, Geography etc) while the children enjoy hands on experience learning how to build a boat.

We interviewed Curtis and you can hear it here.
