So here I was, standing on the bare deck
of the Peerless II, as Randy described what he had already done, what was left
to do and what it was going to be like when he was finished. Back on the
Idyllwood, Randy showed me photographs of the restoration so far. As I said
before, I couldn’t believe my own eyes! The work that had been done was
incredible, and to think Randy was working alone during most of the
restoration!
After a number of unforeseen delays, the
PEERLESS
II was launched and the “new” history of this unique ship began.
Several years have passed since the “restored” Peerless II’s first maiden
voyage. Judi and I have been fortunate enough to have enjoyed a few Peerless II
cruises on the Muskoka Lakes. As always, Captain Randy regaled passengers
with endless tales of “Muskoka Lake facts and legends”.
It will be fun and inspiring to see what’s next for this amazing Muskoka Lakes pioneer!
