The boat, named Ripple, was in the final stages of a complete refit involving the replacement and strengthening of her stringers after the many years of abuse dished out by Kaiser on the frequently snotty waters of Buzzards Bay and Vineyard Sound. The entire deck, as well as the engines, had been removed over the winter so that the work could be performed. When I stopped by, fiberglass expert Todd Shurtleff was in the process of wrapping up the stringer work and prepping the boat for a primer coat of paint.

OK, so I'm not usually a fan of 'plastic boats' (Southbounder - I think you know that as you would usually find me on the WBF), but ... those 1960's Bertrams are NICE boats! Nice lines, great performers & built like tanks. Good to see another one being well taken care of.
