Boat Owner and Survey History for Hull #113

[bob mitchell]

I am now working on the engine, and am trying to get a handle on when

it was replaced, rebuilt, hours run, etc., so am working my way back through the surveys in my archives.

         Originally purchased by Andrew Duncan in 1967, of Cleveland, Ohio, with

home port listed as Kingston, Jamaica. Was originally named "Lovely Lady". An old Newporter Directory indicates Richard Hutton bought it 1971.

 

04/23/85 Owner Richard Hutton, Huntington, New York

Survey done in Fort Lauderdale while boat hauled out at

Summerfield's Boat Yard by L. F. Hamlin. Even at this point

there were several areas of dry rot to be repaired, including

the keelson under the main salon sole (which I am going to

attempt to rebuild this summer), as well as the mast below the

spreader, which I would say never really got repaired well

enough to prevent their later rotting away. Several repairs were

made and overall survey was positive. While this survey does

not state a new 192DF engine had been installed in 1977,

it does list the engine, and I have a folder that does state new engine

installed and keeps up with operating hours. Engine S.N. is D5JL6007V4

(same as 96 survey) Present Value (1985)was $62,000 with replacement

value $120,000. Name at time "Lady Marian".

 

05/21/85 Boat purchased by Leonard L. Wilson for $50,000 from Moser

Yacht Sales in Stuart, Florida. Mr. Wilson kept boat at Marina

del Ray, North Shore Lake Pontchartrain, La. He had renamed

the boat "Fireweed". The boat was for sale for $59,000 some

time after Dec. 1986 (mentioned as haul out date).

07/93 George Maattanen puchases boat for $40,000, and renames

it "Between the Sheets". Have insurance policy he purchased

in 1996 where boat is now docked at Hales Bar Marina on

Tennessee River, close to Chattanooga. A Coast Guard

Certificate of Documentation indicates Maattanen still owned

thge boat in 2004.

 

01/07/96 Maattanern has survey done by Bill Clingman, inspected

out of the water at Sale Creek Marina, a location that I have

kept another sale boat at before. The photos of the hull look

good. SURVEY STATES THAT ENGINE REPLACED

I stumbled on a cool piece of info the other night as I was going through my engine material.

     It is a confirmation that the engine was actually replaced! If you take a look at the top left graph you can see where a previous owner sketched in the bhp to rpms graph and wrote "previous engine" (a 172 ford osco.)
