This blog is about the restoration of a 1963 Fletcher Cates Moth boat. The boat was made in Haddenfield NJ. By Blair Fletcher. Blair Owed Fletcher Marine and made many boats for the Moth fleets of Southern NJ. I sailed against these boats with a Cates design by Carl Patterson. I built my Cates at Pattersons' shop around the same time this boat was under construction. This picture was taken September 1965. It's me in my Patterson Cates.

New home
This is the new home for the duration of this project. I had to stop working in the garage because of allergies from family members. The second pix is a better perspective of where we will be working. I've done other projects in this shed but not with all the other boats in it. There are 3 other moths and 4 canoes in with us...
Here we are with 4 coats of urathane on the boat
