History | Recommissioning Process

Recommissioning Process of The Black Watch > After 53 hours and 1,389 mile journey from Annapolis, Maryland to Grapevine, Texas the BLACK WATCH settles in to her new home on Lake Grapevine.

> How do you transport cargo that is 30 years old, weights approximately 24,000 pounds, stands 13 1/2 feet tall (without the mast), and is 12 feet wide? Very carefully.

> The 48’ Sitka Spruce mast dressed out with all the rigging weights about 1,000 pounds.

> Now to put her back together again into the true beauty she is - in about 5 hours.

> The BLACK WATCH on a heading to Silver Lake Marina.
