This is were it all began...

This is the place, just a different time. Its Koontz Machine Shop in Coos Bay Oregon. Christopher worked for 2 years to get Chilote while she was berthed on the dock here at the shop. It is here were Jessie met Chris. She worked as a cook & he continued to poor his sweat and tears into the vessel and made a loving home for the two of them.

We love the crew at Koontz, and you will love the work they do. Check them out at www.koontzmachine.com
