Just after I got separated out of active duty in 1967, my father bought this old 1938-ish Monomoy surf boat that was in rough shape, but had nice lines too it. It was all cedar planked and oak ribbed .<\/p>\n

So we took it apart, installed new ribs, or sistered up some old ones, copper riveted planks, stringers, and decking. I rebuilt the old buda engine after having the new babit bearings poured, and you can see me in one of the pics doing what I do!<\/p>\n

A safe and study sea boat to have fun in! And my father named her DEFRALDA after his four sons: DE<\/strong>nnis (US Navy Vietnam Veteran), FR<\/strong>ank (USMC Vietnam Veteran), AL<\/strong>len (USMC Vietnam Veteran), and DA<\/strong>niel (Navy League Sea Cadet).<\/p>\n
