The Rebirth of Augusta
In a Milford shipyard, some 9 decades ago, the idea to create pleasure yachts came to fruition with the building of 'Augusta'- 44 feet of Milford history floating along the shores of Delaware and the eastern seaboard. Committed to preserving history, Sudler & Joan Lofland undertook the remodeling of this historic yacht to its former glory. It was relaunched at the Vineyard Shipyard and Host Our Coast was there to capture it.
