Katie Belle is in the Lunenburg shipyard, being repaired.

She was hit by lightning 7/21/2023 during the big rain storm.

The strike destroyed all the electronics including the boat command alarm system.

Lightning also damaged a fl**ge gasket, which allowed water to enter the engine compartment and cover the engines.

She was towed to Lunenburg, her masts removed for inspection for lightning damage, and is now on a stand.

The engines are being removed for repair.

When she will be back home in Bedford will depend on what damage is found.
