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.

Weigh in.
No work today. George and John Z came over for some show and tell. We got some advice from Z on location of bulkheads and stiffing up the boat. Also got a good weight going. 37 1/2 pounds. that should put us on target for 75.
