Herreshoff Boats For Sale / Fishers Island 31 Mameena up for auction

« on: July 25, 2009, 08:47:48 PM »

I found a Herreshoff Fishers Island 31 named "Aldebaron" up for auction about a year ago in Kansas. After doing some research I discovered it was the boat named "Mameena" and that it had been unaccounted for. The photo on this website is one that I had taken when I went to inspect the boat. The owners turned out to be the high bidder, as the boat did not bring what they had wanted, so it did not actually sell. I have now found it up for auction again through a local consignment house. The boat will be selling without reserve. I thought some of you might be interested. The Brass Hull Plate is in the boat, although the auction company has not posted a picture of it, I can verify that it is indeed Hull #1060. Let me know if I can be of any help.
