Peggy of New Point has been launched after spending two weeks on the rail. While out, she received a fresh coat of bottom paint and her buoy top was given a cursory sanding and painting.
If you're a Peggy fan, you'll want to visit the Gwynn's Island Boat Shop during the Mathews Maritime Foundation's upcoming Heritage Festival. Grilled oysters, historic boats, boatbuilding, and more! 10AM-4PM, Saturday, 9/30/23 Gwynn's Island Boat Shop on Old Ferry Rd. And other exhibits at the Mathews Maritime Museum at 482 Main St., Mathews, VA. Thank you Mike Moore for photos of Peggy at the dock.
