We hired LV Marine and Boston Harbor Shipyard and Marina to attach our keel and install the rudder. Perfect. We’ll only have to do this once, right? Next: Mast!
To Boston!
After a few more visits to Chaumont, we made an offer and they accepted! Next step: get the boat (and all of the pieces) to Boston. Brownell (boat transportation company) to the rescue! ~$4k later, our boat was in East Boston and read to be assembled.
