Historische Notizen
George Schneider (Aug 2026) writes: New owners picked up this boat in 2023 and since then her documents have lapsed.
She has been put ashore in a boatyard in Sandusky and the metal has been cut away from her foredeck. I'm told the plan was to convert her into a pirate ship, and the owners even ordered 10 2-pounder deck gun replicas before running out of money.
