Relaunch of Thunderbird #1

After being lovingly restored by our preservation volunteers, and particularly volunteer Dave Federighi, Thunderbird # 1 is getting ready to go back in the water. It’s been 65 years since this boat launched a new international class. We are very excited to partner with the Gig Harbor Boat Shop in launching her for an anniversary “victory lap” and presentation at the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival before she takes her permanent place in our newly constructed Maritime Gallery.

Join us to celebrate this Northwest classic. We’ll have light appetizers and drinks plus good stories and photo ops.
