Follow along with Peter Slack’s ongoing series about the restoration of COASTAL QUEEN, a Chesapeake Bay Buy Boat built in 1928 and modified in the late 1950s to a cruising yacht. The series follows the process from the bottom up, as a new keel, keelson and cross planking are needed to support this massive structure.

The journey continues with Chet, one of McMillen Yacht’s head shipwrights, as he works on the COASTAL QUEEN’s chine and creates additional structure where the cross planking meets the fore and aft planking. The Coronet Schooner is ready for launch, and we follow Chet through the process of freeing it from IYRS to continue it’s restoration at Mystic Seaport Museum.
