"Relish" the Thought

Bay Cruiser 22'

Another one of Our Boats found a New Home yesterday!  The 2000 22' Bay Cruiser originally named Triton was bought by customers who have been looking for a MathewsBros Boat for 4+ years and have at last found the deal for them.  We trailered the boat to a ramp local to their home in Sherwood, MD.  The owners then motored Relish home.

Fuel Tanks and Engine Covers

Although we're still launching boats for the season, this week we're featuring some of our ongoing projects.  We've got a Downeast Trawler over at the landing in which we recently installed 86 gallon fuel tanks.  One had a leak and since they're both the same age, it was decided to replace both of them due to the probable integrity of the second tank.  This week we've been able to get the decking back down over top of the tanks.  The Teak & holly will be glued down with epoxy and sealed before being varnished to give it a finished look.

Annie's Boat Ride

Annie and Pete took their boat, Annie Girl, to a Client's house to launch and motor over to a local boat yard to tow the Client's Herreshoff Sailboat from a local boatyard to their residence in St. Michaels.



Annie said the trip out to the boatyard only took about 30 minutes and was "co-old!"  Luckily they'd brought jackets to keep them warm on the trip!  The trip back to the client's house took about 2.5 hours and was much warmer.  Annie enjoyed her time out of the office and a boat ride with Pete. 



They tied the boat up to the dock alongside the client's Mathews Brothers Blackwater 29', "Stagwell III" .
