Currently own a restoration and repair business called B & R Woodies.

We have several projects underway, one of which is my own

1929 Elco 42'
1921 Elco 42'
1959 Seaman Tug 30'
and mine a 1966 Trojan 36' Fly bridge. I am sure I will have questions about it in the near future.

Great to be here!!

In the eighties I restored three wooden Tollycrafts and numerous other smaller boats but now I just don't have the energy or the time for wood. I'd rather be fishin' or cruising or crabbing out of Ilwaco,Wa. in my F-32.

Any boat is a wonderful thing!

Though my preference is the classics I would rather be around water and boats than most places. The people you meet are generally friendly and the envirnment is always a great atmospere!!

The 1921 Elco we are abount to start the restoration on is the only one left. It was ordered by Horance Dodge in 1921 and delivered to Michigan. I am sure the name rings a bell, he was one of the founders of the Dodge Motor Company.

Things like that when you can find them make the restoration of classics very exciting, at least to me.

Keep boating I say, It's all Good!!!
