Bass Harbor boatbuilder Chummy Rich is building a wooden “weekender” power boat for another MDI resident. I stopped by on Monday April 12 and talked with the owner, and took these pictures of the progress and office staff. We will try to talk with Chummy live on our show April 13 at 10 am. Chummy is using his grandfather’s drawings for this boat. It should be an interesting talk. I will take more pictures when there is not so much stuff in the way. Chummy’s shop cat is taking a break from all the office work. A.S.
