SHOP SPACE?

Workshop space is always needed.

Students, boat yard start-ups, and new residents in the trades, are always needing a space to store tools, build things like boats and furniture, and be creative with the hand-skills that make them tick. Living and shop space in Port Townsend is in short supply.

Do you have a garage or shed that could be rented as shop space for a marine trades start-up or student?

Is your workshop, shed, or greenhouse standing unused and sad?

Does your barn no longer house animals?

We would like to list any leads for shop-space and living space as a resource for marine trades folks 

on this platform.

Sharing your skills to better the community

 The Community Build Project is building tiny homes and the skills within our marine trades could really make a difference.

Membership with the PTMTA

 

The Port Townsend Marine Trades Association is a non-profit organization of volunteer men and women employed in the marine trades. The PTMTA links over 350 marine tradespeople in the Port Townsend area and this network allows customers and tradespeople alike to quickly find the services and expertise they need. We also serve as a unified voice for the marine trades, promoting economic stability in the community and resolving issues that threaten the livelihood of the marine trades in Jefferson County.

As a marine trades person, why should you join the PTMTA?

• Great way to advertise and network
• Be kept up to date on issues that may affect the success of your business
• Make sure your voice is heard and find support dealing with issues confronting your business

As a community member NOT directly involved in the marine trades, why should you support the PTMTA? 

• The marine industry is one of the largest employers in Jefferson County and both directly and indirectly supports our communities
• Customers coming to Port Townsend for the local marine trades also provide income for many non-marine businesses
• The marine trades and working waterfront are a large part of Port Townsend’s historical image and current appeal, and community support helps keep this tradition alive and vibrant.
