Corey
YEAR: 1959
"Corey" has been owned by Stan Leibel for over 40 years. Shepherd boats were produced in
Niagara On The Lake and are great 'big-water' boats on big lakes. She calls Lake Simcoe home, where the rough waters are no match for her sea worthy design.
LENGTH: 24'
This boat came to Peter several times over the years for traditional plank repairs and refinishing. In 2017, the original bottom could not be repaired any longer, and she received a Encapsulated Plank Breen Bottom. With minimal care, this boat will no longer need repairs as the original bottom did.
BUILDER: SHEPHERD BOATS
Solid mahogany planks fastened with stainless steel screws and thickened epoxy on every joint sealed inside and out creates a "bullet-proof" bottom. "Corey" is now serving the third generation of the Leibel family.
