Every year, the gondoliers come here to rid their gondolas of algae and give them a protective coat of tar. More than just a maintenance workshop, this squero is one of the few places where the secret of gondola manufacture lives on, with its unique asymmetrical shape that allows gondoliers to sail using just one oar.
