Lotus wouldn’t float without all the support she has had over the years from generous sponsors:
Center for Wooden Boats – Seattle We are honored to be here – we have found our community and are an active participant in the waterfront programs presented by this magical and beloved corner of Lake Union. Come See, Come Play. Come Today!
BioSok™ – Absorbs and biodegrades the oil and fuel from your bilge. Lotus used to have a strong odor of diesel – Not Anymore!! The cause is gone – go to their website Unireminc.com and read about it. Better yet – Buy Some – It Works! Thank you for your generosity.
PS – The Sequoia (The Presidents former yacht ) is also a proud and grateful recipient of BioSok generosity. Our photos will hang together on the BioSok Office wall.

Gougeon Brothers / West Systems Products Thank you for our boat load of Epoxy to rebuild our trim and rails and that great book they wrote on restoration of wooden boats. We have learned so much from you.
Henery’s Hardware, Port Townsend Thank you for your generous support as our ship’s store when we are in PT!
Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding THE place to learn wooden boat building and repair. You were a haven for Lotus years ago and repaired out tiny PenYan shore boat. And then, several of your students rowed out to spend nearly two days on the beach to help us when we were down the winter of 2012. Thanks Hugely!
