A Story About Lady #8 from 1988

I found this photo of Lady from around 1988 when I had her out of the water.  The "banana bumper" on the front of Lady was original to the first owner.  It finally corroded.  I found a seaman in San Francisco who would make a replica of it.  I found him sitting in a Marine Supply warehouse.  He wanted $400 which at the time I thought was a bit much.  I went back a couple of months later and couldn't find him. Poetically I envisioned him having "shipped out".  -- from a 29 June 2014 email to Macy Galbreath
