We received the first boat damaged by Sandy from New Jersey on wednesday. She's here for a refit so she can go back to NJ looking like new!

Hampton Sailboats
Whew! January is getting away from us! Most of the boats are covered up with plastic due to other ongoing projects and I can never seem to catch them while they are uncovered and being worked on! This is pretty much what it looks like in the shop:
One of our many ongoing projects is a Hampton that has been returned to us this winter for a spruce up after 11+ years. The Hampton One Design (HOD) Sailboats were the first boats that MathewsBros built. When they first opened shop in 1995, they were focused on repairs and refits - something that has come full circle! A year or so into their business, the HOD class approached them about building their boats. To date they've built a total of 19 Hamptons.

The Hampton in the shop this winter is getting a gel coat touch up as well as all new varnish. The old varnish has been stripped off and the mahogany has been re-sealed - it's ready for new varnish!
