Part 3 - Line 4a
RESTORATION/PRESERVATION: VIRGINIA V WAS HAULED OUT OF THE WATER ON FEBRUARY 16, 2021 TO MEET ITS ROUTINE COAST GUARD INSPECTION REQUIREMENT, AND TO PERFORM STRUCTURAL WORK NEEDED TO REPLACE DECAYED TIMBERS IN THE HULL, PRIMARILY IN THE PORT BOW. WITH INCREMENTAL PLANK REMOVALS AND INSPECTIONS, THE SCOPE OF THIS WORK GREW SUBSTANTIALLY AS PROGRESSIVELY MORE FUNGUS ROT WAS FOUND, REQUIRING THAT AFFECTED TIMBERS BE REMOVED. ULTIMATELY, IT WAS NECESSARY TO REPLACE ALL BOW PLANKS ON BOTH SIDES, MOST BOW FUTTOCKS, THE STEM, EXTENSIVE PLANKING ON THE STARBOARD SIDE AFT TO AND INCLUDING THE STARBOARD SIDE OF THE TRANSOM, MANY FUTTOCKS ALONG THE FULL LENGTH OF THE SHIP'S STARBOARD SIDE, AND A SMALL NUMBER OF PLANKS AND FUTTOCKS ALONG THE PORT SIDE AMIDSHIPS AND TOWARD THE STERN. BY YEAR-END, SHIPWRIGHTS HAD INSTALLED THE NEW STEM, APPROXIMATELY 50 NEW HULL PLANKS, FIVE TRANSOM PLANKS, AND FUTTOCKS IN OVER 60 FRAMES, ABOUT 20 OF WHICH WERE COMPLETELY RENEWED. WORK REMAINED ONGOING. WHILE THE SHIP WAS OUT OF THE WATER, THE DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING ORGANIZED WORK PARTIES, USUALLY TWICE A WEEK, OF MOSTLY VOLUNTEERS TO PERFORM A SPECTRUM OF INSPECTIONS, ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, AND REPAIRS TO PROPULSION AND AUXILIARY MACHINERY AND OTHER SHIP'S ELECTRICAL AND HABITABILITY SYSTEMS.

WORK WAS COMPLETED ON THE MULTI-YEAR INSTALLATION OF THE TANKLESS HOT WATER SPACE HEATING SYSTEM, AND ACQUISITION INITIATED FOR THE ISOLATION TRANSFORMER INSTALLATION TO CORRECT THE SAFETY AND PRESERVATION PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH STRAY ELECTRICAL CURRENTS FROM THE SHIP. EXPENSES INCLUDE 50% OF REPORTED DEPRECIATION, AND THE DEPRECIATED VALUE OF 2013 BETTERMENTS REMOVED FROM THE SHIP TO FACILITATE 2021 WORK. IN ADDITION TO CURRENT-YEAR EXPENSES NOTED, THE FOUNDATION ACCRUED 2021 CAPITAL EXPENDITURES OF $1,152,450 FOR STRUCTURAL WORK ON THE HULL, AND $3,056 FOR THE HEATING PROJECT AND ISOLATION TRANSFORMER.

TIMBER VALUED AT $89,304 WAS INSTALLED FROM INVENTORY AND THESE ACQUISITIONS.
OPERATION: VIRGINIA V STEAMED TO PACIFIC FISHERMEN SHIPYARD ON FEBRUARY 15, 2021 FOR THE ROUTINE, BIENNIAL DRYDOCKING NOTED ABOVE. A SUMMERTIME RETURN TO OPERATION WAS ORIGINALLY EXPECTED, BUT THE SCOPE OF WORK GREW SEVERAL TIMES, AND THE SHIP REMAINED DRYDOCKED AT THE END OF THE YEAR. NUMEROUS PLANNED TRIPS WERE CANCELLED OR RESCHEDULED FOR 2022. THE FOUNDATION MAINTAINED A POOL OF CREW SUBJECT TO RANDOM DRUG TESTING THROUGHOUT THIS PERIOD, IN ACCORDANCE WITH USCG REQUIREMENTS. THERE WERE NO EARNED REVENUES THIS YEAR. EXPENSES INCLUDE 50% OF REPORTED DEPRECIATION.
INTERPRETATION/EDUCATION: THE COVID PANDEMIC LIMITED OPEN-SHIP VISITATION WHILE VIRGINIA V WAS AT LAKE UNION PARK IN JANUARY AND FEBRUARY, AND THE SHIP WAS ESSENTIALLY CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC WHILE DRYDOCKED. THE FOUNDATION DID HOST SEVERAL SMALL-GROUP TOURS OF THE VESSEL DURING THIS PERIOD FOR PEOPLE WITH A PARTICULAR INTEREST IN THE SHIP AND THE WORK BEING DONE, AS WELL AS THOSE VISITING PACIFIC FISHERMEN FOR EVENTS THAT THE SHIPYARD HOSTED. E-NEWSLETTERS WERE SENT OUT TEN TIMES DURING THE YEAR. FOUNDATION STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO FULFILL THE INTERPRETIVE PORTION OF OUR MISSION BY CONTRIBUTING TO HERITAGE AND CULTURE EVENTS IN THE COMMUNITY AND ONLINE. EXAMPLES INCLUDED OUR SENIOR DOCENT GIVING TALKS ABOUT THE SHIP'S HISTORY VIA ZOOM FOR PUBLIC AND PRIVATE GROUPS, AND PARTICIPATING IN A LIVE PANEL DISCUSSION ABOUT THE HISTORY OF VIRGINIA V AND OTHER SHIPS MOORED AT THE HISTORIC SHIP'S WHARF IN SEATTLE. OUR STAFF ENGAGED IN COLLABORATIVE ACTIVITIES INCLUDING OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S PARTICIPATION IN A TASK FORCE PLANNING THE WASHINGTON STATE NATIONAL MARITIME HERITAGE AREA AND REGULARLY ATTENDING MEETINGS OF THE PORT OF SEATTLE'S YOUTH MARITIME COLLABORATIVE. DURING THE FINAL MONTHS OF THE YEAR, OUR STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS BEGAN THE PLANNING FOR THE SHIP'S 2022 CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION.
