Steve: Saw the the boat in the Museum on Water Street in Decorah, Iowa. Was sailed by two brothers to Chicago in '33 from Norway via the Canary Islands and Virgin Islands. The boat "Trade Winds" is 25' loa, 9' beam, 3.5 tons, Bermuda rig. They sold the boat to Arthur Andersen, founder of the "Harvard" of accounting firms who in turn donated it to the Museum. Thanks for your help. We had a terrific fun-filled time in Decorah. Also had pizza at Mabes. Rich Cottrell
