Mistral was hauled out in good company. Sharing the hard at the Seaview East boat yard were two Blanchard Junior Knockabouts. The one above is getting a final stroke of bottom paint before being splashed and towed back to The Center for Wooden Boats. Heron Scott, the boots to the left, reports the two boats were rented the moment they hit the dock.
