Join us for a celebration of The Boatyard: How a Rollicking Bunch in Rural Wisconsin Built the Finest Yachts in the World, written by the late James Mihaley. Based on interviews with former employees, customers, and others, The Boatyard tells the story of Palmer Johnson, the famous yacht builders based in Sturgeon Bay. Hear from featured characters in the book — partner Bill Parsons, customer Don Sher, and former employees – about the story behind the book and of this piece of Door County history.
