What a beautiful original boat. Any wooden boat stored for a length of time will take on some water when launched. I agree keel cap and around transom are usually the culprits. I always spray my hulls down with water on the inside a day or so before launching, this always helps. Wow, even the origin...

We restored her at my studio.

Brian, I will look in my photos, but I am pretty sure I disassembled the splash well before taking photos. If you carefully disassemble any parts of these boats any piece can be replicated or refinished. I was able to reuse all of my well except the floor of the well. I used the rotted original as a...
