Deck framing and pilot house deck dryfit.  With port starboard walls fit, glued, and screwed, we're definitely seeing new dimension. Exciting!

It's out. The Mathews Maritime's annual calendar, and this year will feature none other than... Peggy! Beautiful images, old and new, with captions. Also, an extra insert tells the story of this historic deck boat, her renovation, and what the future holds. Get your copy at the Museum Gift Shop, online, and the Mathews Visitor Center.
