Jay’s grandfather started the “tradition” of collecting old pumps, which continues to this day. Collectors looking for vintage gas pumps often stop by to inquire about them. Newer, “contemporary” gas pumps are abundant and are of little interest to anyone, Jay says. /html/../gallery/large/jay-delano-mpw-04.JPG 149726590007b6fbf34b5408d74c9bdd Jason Dolan, a five-year veteran of the company, moves supplies at the Delano’s warehouse.

She was built at the beginning of the 20th century in British Columbia, Canada. The new owner brought the sailboat to Port Townsend for a big repair and installment of brand new planks. Every plank must be steamed for anywhere between 2 and 3 hours before it can be installed. Considering the precision required for this task, the installation process takes surprisingly little time once the plank is steamed properly. The Port Townsend shipyard is known for its masterful shipwrights and many wooden boats schools. /html/../gallery/large/port-townsend-shipyard-12.JPG 911a2b5a60bc21b494ff5e377c9466c4 A shipwright
