Building Boats and Sailing on Narragansett Bay with Kenneth Allstrom

Warwick Life host Scott Nerney talks with Hillsgrove native, former educator, and boat builder Kenneth Allstrom.

Warwick has been Kenneth’s home for 87 years, and Narragansett Bay has been a central part of his life. Hear how his childhood church lost its steeple, about the boats he built as a youth and an adult—including a boat made out of concrete—how the Bay has changed, competing in Twenty Hundred Club races, and how to have a pleasant day on the Bay.

Warwick Life highlights what’s special in Warwick, Rhode Island and helps listeners get the most from this seaside community. Warwick Life is produced by Scott Nerney and presented by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠We Be Jammin’⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
