BACK from SUMMER & into WINTER & PROPER BOAT STORAGE.....A MUST

It's A New Woody Day!!
Okay............We're back!!!!!!!!!!  The blogger needed a blog vacation.  But, now, I am back.

Let's talk about WINTER  which means BOAT STORAGE!!
Our BOAT STORAGE FACILITY is unique.  It is a dirt floor facility.  That is an added bonus when it comes to wood boats.

Our wood boat customers enjoy the luxury of NOT having their wood decks and planks dry out, move and crack.  We see this time and time again with customers whom keep their boats in garages/hangars which have a cement floor and may/may not be heated.  OUCH and CRACK!
There is nothing more frustrating to a professional restorer than to have their "perfected creation" literally "wrecked" over the course of seven months.

McCall Boat Works cares so much about the preservation of your woodie that this Fall we went into our facility and actually had a water truck "humidify" our facility:
   

DONT let your beautiful NEW Restoration (see examples below)
  end up CRACKED and  UGLY:

YUCK!

    Hey Don, I found your blog. Don Danenberg had your web site as a link, and then I found your blog.

    I am Arlon Hibbert, I own "THE OTHER WOMAN", and I met you at McCall this summer. You wanted my car plates, "GAR WOOD". When I get "old", I'll let you know and you can have them, Hee Hee. But I see you already have "CRSCRFT"

    I enjoyed the McCall boat show, I'm coming up to Priest Lake next summer. Hope to see you then.

    I just bought a grey 19 foot 1959 Century Resorter with a carrier deck like the one in this post. It will be my next project, starting this summer.

    If you like, visit my blog, it has my complete restoration. oldboatguy.blogspot.com

    Hope you have a good winter and Christmas Season. Arlon
