Chautara is a true working lobster boat from the east coast that was brought to the PNW by her current owners in 2010. They have done extensive repairs with the folks at Haven Boatworks in Port Townsend WA, but have yet to install an interior. The engine is a wonderful John Deere that runs wonderfully and has many, many years ahead of her. She is being offered for sale to her next owners for finishing the project however they may choose. More extensive pictures and details will follow in early April.
