John Bayliss' Tarheel

[Wound Up James]

I was at the Bayliss yard yesterday and there was a bunch of talk about the boat. It is a 48' and a Scarborough hull. Sweet restoration... saw a bunch of pics. They also restored the 41' Scarborough "Retriever".
Not surprising, their work is second to none and attention to detail is amazing. When many of the other yards are quiet or closed.... Bayliss was buzzing with the two BIG builds.
Love that place.

Talked w Crisson today......rumor has it you left John a deposit.....you won t be disappointed !!!

I actually went overboard on this boat when I was 13. Let's see that would be about 1995. My dad took me "offshore" for the first time when I was 13. Long story short I got up to the bridge fine but went for a swim when I attempted to come back down. It had the "older style" steps on the outside of the bridge. My dad was fighting a tuna the whole time. Never forget that or the mate (I think his name was Matt) pulling my arse back over the rail. Good times.
