Welcome to New England Lyman Group.

Founded in 1999 with the mission and purpose of promoting the use of Lyman boats, but also to support activities that promote youth involvement and interest in wooden boat building, repair, and maintenance.

We are an active group of local enthusiasts who love our boats and love to use them. We publish a newsletter for our members 3 to 4 times a year. For our meetings, we generally try to have something to attract our members, guests, and Lyman loving friends.

If you own a Lyman, had a Lyman, want a Lyman, or just want to talk about anything to do with lapstrakes, consider joining us. Just stop by for one of our upcoming events. We welcome all lapstrake lovers regardless of the manufacturer! It doesn't matter if that is EM White, Cruiser's Inc, Thompson, Penn Yan, Century, or any of the many others that produced these fine boats of a great seaworthy design.
