The Resurrection of a Boat

In 1999, Mike and crew hauled the "Porpoise" onto the boat ramp, blocked it up, re-fiber glassed the boat and painted it.  By the time we returned in March 2000, the salt water had taken its toll on the paint.

By the end of March 2000, Mike and Coral had painted the boat and Mike was beginning work on the engine, transmission, and hydraulic systems.
