“Prepare to be impressed!” \u00a0Those were my brother’s words to me when he heard we were bringing our newly purchased 1980 Pearson Pilothouse to Gibson Island Boat Works<\/a> for her refit. \u00a0It started out as a big job, but as leaks and rot and antiquated equipment and blisters and so on were discovered or evaluated, the refit became a huge job. \u00a0Heron now has a beautiful bottom! \u00a0She has fabulous new teak work, including new toe rail caps, combing, and bowsprit. \u00a0With lots of grandchildren, and wanting them to enjoy the boat, we rebuilt the settees and table with a fort underneath. \u00a0Heron has all new wiring, new electronics, new hatches, and new water filters.\u00a0 Heron’s exterior is looking fabulous,\u00a0as is her newly refurbished mast and boom. Not knowing much about cruising boats, we asked Rick what the smell was. “The Head”, he said. \u00a0We are very happy with the new odor-free composting toilet. \u00a0The old cold box has been refit into a wonderful spot to keep things cold and\/or frozen. \u00a0 \u00a0We are thankful to Boat Works for their patience with our ignorance, for teaching us about engines, etc…. , and for their care and attention to Heron. \u00a0We are impressed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
