Nov. 2011 - A very special morning in the long life of Peggy
as she received the first of her new deck frames. Her new frames will rest upon two new inside clamps. Progress should occur quickly from this point forward. This is an exciting time to be a part of this project.
There is much to be celebrated as Peggy re-emerges
as a living symbol of the maritime heritage that Mathews
can claim with pride.
