Alumni Projects and more

  • Ongoing and Past IYRS Alumni Projects and Third Party Projects

    This is a place, Alumni can share their current and older projects, with our community.  Whether a restauration project or a new built boat or any other activity you have participated and wish to tell us about it, we'd be thrilled to publish it here.  Share your project with us and send us as much of your project as you wish including text and photos or even a short video if you have.

    Occasionally, we will host third party restoration projects, as a service to our fellow alumni.
