John built this 43-foot steel ketch in the back yard of the Sandy Hill house we owned in downtown Ottawa, Canada. We lived aboard when our kids were small, and cruised to the Bahamas. We "stopped off" in North Carolina, raised the kids, and never even thought of selling her as the leaves accumulated on the deck, mold grew everywhere, and the kids grew up.
Is this picture of the boat in the trees, as it sits now? Or have you moved it somewhere easier to work on?
