Purchased from a Chesapeake Bay fisherman circa 1994 to replace a 19' Lyman when moving boating centroid to Lake Champlain. Hull largely original, except the fisherman's non skid decks were replaced and custom ceiling boards installed in lieu of laborious inboard scraping and sanding. True North has cruised Florida's St Johns River, the St Lawrence/Thousand Islands, the Finger Lakes and the Great Warpath from NYC to Montreal. True North now hangs out on the S. Maine coast. Ask me about why I am on my 4th V-8 engine.
