Until I started work on my Woody I would also have thought a boat builder would have been a good pace to start but having dug into the subject a bit deeper I think there are more subtleties than it would first appear. I have mentioned before that some parts can be regarded more as a mechanism than a structure.
If making small repairs a competent joiner should be fine but a large repair where exact details of the original are not clear then I would suggest getting help from an experienced coachbuilder such as Clanfield Coachbuilding.
