Derrick spent many years in the United States Air Force until retiring. He afterwards worked in a cabinet shop, then came to work for us in April 2024. Derrick plays a vital role in the production of our boat restorations, especially when it comes to Bottoms. Outside of work, Derrick enjoys spending time with his wife and sons.
Justin Wilson
Restoration Specialist
Justin came to work for us at Woodies in May 2024 after previously working in the Rehabilitation field. He quickly has become a valuable asset to our team as he has went "all in" on learning about the craft of restoring wooden boats. Outside of work, he enjoys riding his motorcycle and spending time with his family and friends.
Steven has also been with us here at Woodies since April 2024. He along with Justin has been learning the art of restoring boats, and as you can see from the picture he is getting ready to buff down the varnish on a newly coated topside. He has also became a valuable asset in this area as he learned quickly and been able to take on many tasks in the shop for Paul and Taylor. We are glad to have him here!

Lead Mechanic
Kevin is one of our newest employees to add to our team! He recently moved here from Florida and has taken on the new role of Lead Mechanic here at Woodies! He has had much experience in working with boats and we are glad to add him to our roster here! Outside of work, you will find Kevin enjoying his free time hunting and watching NASCAR!
