Professional BoatBuilder Magazine

June/July 2017

On the cover: The 42' (12.8m) Silver Mist, a 1957-vintage commercial fishing boat originally built by Wahl in Prince Rupert, British Columbia, undergoes a full rebuild and custom conversion to a coastal pleasure cruiser at Commodore's Boats in Vancouver. Here, Commodore's crew Terry Karlsen fits a sheer plank snuggly against the filler blocks and black UHMW sister frames. Inside those, the new jack beams support the purpleheart aft cabin coaming. Sunny Butte works in the background. Story on page 14. Photograph courtesy Commodore's Boats.
