Happy Thanksgiving!

The new PatriotII is coming together, quite literally.  The owner was here just last week to see her progress.  The cockpit liner is in along with fuel tanks, the head, hanging locker, vberth, and galley cabinets.  The windshield has now been permanently attached to the cabin top as have the bow rail and varnished teak hand rails.  

It has truly been a busy fall.  Most of our crew has been working on the new boat full time with a few of them heading out to haul boats for the winter.

We are thankful for the busy year that we've had which we wouldn't have had without our customers and their loyalty!  Thank You!

She's looking like a Boat!

Progress on the new boat this week included finishing the stringers and cross bracing as well as adding bulkheads to the hull.  As you can see below, the top deck is fitted onto the hull - not for good just yet though.  The boat has gone into the oven for post cure before it will come back into the shop.

Along with finishing all of the teak accents, they've been preparing the windshield for sealer and varnish as well.

Teak Teak Teak

Along with working on the stringers and cross bracing in the hull this past week, we’ve been working on the teak accents.  Our Patriots come standard with varnished teak hand rails, toe rails and varnished teak cap.  This Patriot II will have all of the above plus a teak deck and varnished teak windshield and coamings.  Lots of Teak!
