Belinda Joslin, Founder of Women in Boat Building and Creator of the Wooden Boat Stage, a joint initiative between the Wooden Boatbuilder’s Trade Association, Women In Boat Building and the Boat Building Academy.

The Wooden Boat Stage, run for the first time in 2025 at Southampton International Boat Show, sits alongside the WBTA boats exhibit and aims to communicate the joys, challenges, diversity and dispel myths and fears about wooden boat ownership.
