John and Lulu enjoying a great day fly fishing on the James River at an undisclosed location with the Shenandory. Picture provided by John’s son John Coleman.

Both pulleys installed (one near the front of the rowers seat and one near the transom) and John cleaning up. Once the peanut butter on the pulleys sets up it is back to sanding. It will not be long until the boat is upside down again and we are doing the final filling of the […]
