Helen M.

Kyle Stubbs (Email to Nauticapedia 29/11/2022) stated "the LITTLE BRITCHES (523706). Though fitted with a more traditional bow instead of the clipper-bow the type is known for, I believe this boat's construction by the Castagnola yard at San Francisco in 1926 would include her in the ranks of surviving "Montereys." Like many Montereys, this one spent over 40 years under a motorboat number, before being documented around 1969 under the name DOLL E B. Between then and now, she's also been known as the DEL BELLE and HELEN M. Given her current, whimsical name and limited outfitting, I'm assuming she's now serving in more of a recreational role than working for a living.
