Park went on to college and received a
bachelor's degree in physics; after gradu-
ating, he joined Outward Bound and then
the Student Conservation Association,
working all over the country building
nature trails and training students in
restoring public land. But it was his love
of carpentry that brought him back to
wooden boats.
In 2009, Park attended a two-year pro-
gram at Newport, Rhode Island's Interna-
tional Yacht Restoration School where he
cultivated skills in drafting, lofting, and
traditional wooden boat construction
and restoration. While there, he fully re-
stored a Beetle Cat, a 12-foot gaff-rigged
wooden sailboat designed and built by
the Beetle family in 1921. Park used the
Proud Bow
Park also stores
boats in his yard
during winter months.
