Anecdotes

Ava Lerner (Email - Nauticapedia 23/05/2018) reports that "my family owned a 32 foot Grenfell built in 1967, her name is Seawing, This vessel carried us safely through rough seas and good weather but no matter where this vesselwent this vessel caught the eye of many (not to mention we have our fare share of fun stories)."
