An afternoon in a Hungarian shipyard

A friend of mine invited me to take photos in "an unusual location", as he said. Later on I found myself in one the most impressive shipyard that I have ever seen in the area: Mr. György Juhász, second generation boat builder and owner of the Foarboc shipyard showed me around, while telling me stories on the wonderful wooden dragons to be repaired. He is a devoted boat builder, as well as a sailor of course, sailing every summer in the Lake Balaton, in Hungary. I asked him about his passion, the history of his shipyard, the challenges of the life of a Hungarian boat builder... But instead of talking to much, I let you discover his world: www.foarboc.hu
