Well looks good for the three Atkin boats getting home--Ben Bow, the Shore Liner, and the Jerseys Skiff--Little Water Atkin design.
The tug has a list of possible, just trying to get it to the best one---Liberty Ship people are my first choice, then New York Harbor tug non-profits, then a short list of individuals----but looks good.
The site is still rough I know.
Wooden Boat has given us very good rates to place ads, so come Dec 31 you should see more activity and less boats Please all that can--get to your local yards, find the old unloved boats and post them---It could be a mad rush for people wanting them and saving them. I hope not too mad. Seven out of ten yards I go to have a boat that could use WBRF help.
Off note: I spent a couple of weeks in Scotland and for a few days did a “Boat Building School” of sorts on the Isle of Skye---worked on 42’ Fifie---what a great experience---great place, people and hotel nearby---highly recommend it!
Cheers all and please,please find the boats out there in all the yards -- get them on the site and saved!!
