# 7310

 

My hull number 7310 was N&H built for Jim Stock of MI, next owned by a Thomas Magrow, also MI, before leaving MI for NY, where it was owned by a Micheal Meridith. It then became the property of Charles Matterson, who passed away leaving her to his son, who in turn sold it to Herrick Seth. Seth and his wife took her out once and decided the boat was just way too fast for them as a day sailor. After leaving her sitting outdoors in the parking lot adjacent to their home for a few years they advertised what was left eventually selling 7310 to me. If my wife were telling it she would say they unloaded it on me. 

7310 was in sad shape when I picked her up - checks right through the hull, paint and varnish in bad shape, termites in the top of the stem post, the mast step, some of the keelson and the transom. The mast had started to delaminate and had become home to a major ant colony. Luckily all the standing rigging was in excellent shape.
