Hull 003/43 Documented!

Hi All,

Just a quick update on Hull 003/43. My son, CJ, and I stopped in the USCG Documentation center on our way to Clemson University this past week and documented our new boat!

Based upon our new knowledge from the Professor and Matteo that dumb luck led us to a famous yacht, formerly "Casse Tete III," I adapted the name "Mabel Louise," (Mom) to include recognition of the yacht's former greatness. The documented name of my new, 1969 Swan 43 is "Mabel's Casse Tete." Since I am not a noteworthy racer, nor famous in any way, using the full, original name seemed wrong. Not to mention that Mom would then not be included. So, I think this is a good balance - I hope you all agree.

Now, back to the basics so I can sail her this year!

Thanks for all the help I have received here at the association!

With warm regards,

Chris
