Chandrika

Sorry it has been so long since our last posting. It took us over a month to finalize the purchase, but she is finally ours. We settled on a 34 foot Creekmore cutter built in 1982. She is a very solid and seaworthy vessel and we are happy to have found her. Her name at the time of purchase was Bald Eagle, but we have decided to change her name to Chandrika, which means Moonlight in Hindi. Below are several pictures from the haul-out during the survey and from the original advertisement. We will be keeping the boat here in Miami, Florida until the end of hurricane season.

Since buying the boat, we have been working hard fixing her up.
