It was custom built in Holland in 1973 by Jachtwerf Van Dam & Z.N., It was designed by W.De Vries Lentch Jr.  I am the 3rd owner, I bought it on eBay, I was the only bidder, since it had holes rusted through the hull and the ad stipulated it must be trucked out in 30 days. It would have been an over everything load, length, width, height, weight, etc.  I would have needed 2 semi trucks, one just to carry all the permits and paperwork to move it legally.  So I had to convince them to let me work on it in the yard, that wasn't easy, but eventually with threatening to go home with my cash and default on the sale it was done.  They gave me 5 weeks.   With that amount of time I figured I could fix the hull correctly and not have to pull the boat out of the water again to finish the job.  I had intended on just doing a quick patch job to get the boat to float and out of the yard.  It was hard work but well worth it, the rest of the boat was very good condition.  I took 7 weeks, after the yard figured out that I wasn't just a crackpot with a big idea and that I would and could do as I said, all was OK and extra time was not a problem.  They were happy to see the boat not go to the salvage yard.
