I sailed on Finisterre with my family in the 1970's, and my Dad sold her in Tortola around 1990. I've fondly hoped she is still sailing and in good hands, but only know she eventually was taken to Italy. If anyone has news of the boat since 1990, I would love to hear your stories. If possible, I would like to contact her current owner.
Many thanks to forum members for any replies.

Joanne

I believe she has recently been restored at the Cantiere Navale dell'Argentario in Porto Santo Stefano, Italy, where Dorade, Stormy Weather, and other S&S designs have found rebirth.

I recieved a letter from Steve Doherty (retired publisher of various marine titles) about a year ago, and he indicated he then owned her. She could be in the Shelter Island, NY area.
