Sea Horse

The Sea Horse, formally the Francis C., was built in Brunswick Georgia. Two Trawlers were supposedly built from an old school house in 1959. She Shrimped the Palmalico Sound and Chesapeake Bay area most of her life. Her home port was Swan Quarter NC. In the year 2000 she was purchased by John Herr and Jerry Strick and trucked to West Virginia where she was rebuilt by Jerry, John, and Jack Knight. She has a bathroom in the front hold, center engine room, and rear area rudder room. Her main cabin can comfortable accommodate 8 people and sleeps 4. The back deck sports a 4 person Hot Tub and plenty of extra room for lounging around. The mast and outriggers were rebuilt new and downsized 50% to fit under bridges. It is a different style of boat, like the old wood sternwheel boats, both were the workhorses of the country and you see less of them everyday.
