Recently, I took my Grand Banks that I had inherited from my dad into Schooner Creek. It had been sitting outside for a long, long time. After the survey, my laundry list was huge! If my Dad had not have loved that thing so much, I may have just sold it. Overwhelmed by the amount of work that needed to be done, I sat down with Mike and Steve, and came up with a game plan. A year and a half to restore her! Wow! But, affordable. I made monthly payments and helped out with the work. (hint: you can save on labor by sweating a little! lol I lost 15 lbs in the process too!) But now that it's all done, you can't even believe this was the same boat! These guys were amazing to work with, very understanding, and really taught me that owning a boat takes pride and hard work. Thank you Schooner, I'll see you next year for my bottom paint!
