Dear Editor,

When reading about Lance Fink and Tristram boats, I was delighted to see a picture of Melinda, my wife’s boat.

We bought her two years ago or so and spent approximately 1,000 hours refurbishing her. She was essentially as sound as the day she was made and a testament to the Finks’ skills. Ray Fink built her and made a magnificent job of her.

Melinda is still being used, loved and admired by all who see her. She must be 60 years old by now!

Bryon and Lauris Timperley,

PS. After 55 years of boating I thought I was done with it and bought a 55 MGTF replica…

My beloved wife was not quite done though!
