Combi-boat bigger with each haulout; Oregon builder grows by a full yard

摘要

In Charleston, Ore., the Stillwater, a 49-foot 10-inch crab and shrimp boat, was hauled at Giddings Boatworks in early March. When she goes back in the water at the end of April, the Stillwater will be a very different boat. Then again,this isn't the first time this boat has had a makeover.Back in 2005, the Stillwater was the April Dawn when John Roos bought her, changed the name to Stillwater and took her to FredWahl Marine Construction in Reedsport, Ore., to be sponsoned. But the sponsoning made it difficult to see out of the wheelhouse.
