Restoration Photos of the Merry Maiden
This is Merry Maiden tied up to the pier next to The Center for Wooden Boats.
Tiare and Seaton working on the deck.
The transom had been suffering from rot since 1969 and had been patched to the point where it needed to be completely removed.
To get to the deck beams (while leaving the deck planking in place), we needed to take off the covering boards and the sheer planks.
Here's Candace, splitting out the deck beams. It was a huge task.
All the deck beams have been replaced, and now the sheer planks are about to be replaced.
