Peggy IV
Peggy is a 28 ft runabout, built by Gar Wood in 1928 in Marysville, Michigan. It was originally purchased by Dr. Thomas O'Brien of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on July 3rd, 1930. It is one of the "Of Time and an Island" boats donated to the museum in 2017.
Original engine (Chrysler 125 h.p.) was replaced. The boat features a triple cockpit and twin folding windshields.
Boats from this accession were placed in museum care "on loan" in 2017, as part of the acquisition process from Dan Zarkovacki. Boats were placed under the ownership of Council for Canadian American Relations (as "middle-man") between Dan Zarkovacki and TIBM as part of acquisition process before full ownership could be transferred to TIBM in 2020.Collection
