Mac,
That is really neat. I wish I knew more about the history of my boat prior to my ownership.
Two funny stories. One is a B31 that I knew at one time up at Marina Bay in Quincy, MA. It had at one time according to it's owner been lived aboard by him, his wife, a friend and a golden retriever in the Bahamas. He said it had a special storage area up above the headliner that was for "dive tanks." Funny thing is that he sold it after I had met him. The mechanic was having a hell of a time getting the running light lenses out, as they had been put in backwards for some reason...
The other is a friend of mine owned a 33' Striker which I think is over in Moriches, NY now. It was last called Precious Metal. Regardless it had been made for the son of Striker's owner, and had a false bottom...I don't think it did when deliverd to my friend, but it had been fished in South America up through Central America apparently. Hmmm...
Neat history regardless Mac!
Dug
