My brother has been in a partnership owning a 1957 Beals Island 34 since the late 90s. I will try to get a pic up later. It was a working lobster boat in its previous life. 2 1/2 years out of water to take most of the hog out of the hull's starboard side. Slippery bottom that shallows out aft, made it a challenge to baffle when we changed out from dry stack to wet exhaust. Had to raise coach roof to accommodate partner when at helm. Cut a hole in floor and installed Nomex platform until we did the coach roof. Rebuilt transom, knees, etc so she now 34-ish feet long... Old wood boats.... Aptly named for what he should have done; Firewood
