“Dichotomy has performed beautifully in a variety of Lake Superior weather – and turns head wherever she goes. At age 86 I still go out in her alone most of the time.

“Finally… a real boat. Years ago I tried to buy a Penobscot 42, and have admired them for years. So, a chance to deliver ‘Blueberry Gull’, a Wilbur Northern Star 42 to it’s owner was great. She proved to be a stout little ship, very comfortable, beautiful layout, a great pleasure to run in the ocean and the waterway.”

“We’ve been quite busy with ‘Persephone’. We doubt you would recognize her! It has been such a thrill to watch the evolution from “in need of a good home” to the show girl she is fast becoming. This year marks the third season of fun in our 34’ Wilbur and we couldn’t be happier.”

Owner “Persephone”
“FETCH always draws admiration and inquiry at marinas we visit and loves it when the waves are 8′ to 12′ and it’s blowing like stink.”

“We continually had people approach us and ask about our Wilbur, many of which we invited on board to give a tour. We provided contact info as many sincerely seemed interested in owning a Wilbur. Clearly these pacific northwest boaters spotted the beauty of the design, seaworthiness and quality that goes into a Wilbur.”

“A local tug boat operator was hired to drag the boat off the grounding and as soon as it hit the water, we started it up and drove it to the boatyard. No water in the hull, no damage other than a few deep scratches and a slightly bent prop. To say that you build a strong boat is an understatement.”
