On December 21, 2009 Eric Varty, Canopache, Yankee #188, made a suggestion that we regularly update how many Dolphins have been "found". Good idea, one we have mulled over, and here is the resut.

The definition we are using of a 'found Dolphin' is that we know where the boat is physically, whether or not we know its hull number, plus, an occasional judgement call. This information comes from the Rosters databases, a huge file most of which sits unseen in back of what you see. Inquiries and corrections are invited.

Eight boats have been reported lost - Barbara Joyce, Yankee #141; * Seguro, Yankee # 172, * Yankee # 238; * Jim Rohner's Yankee (Wilmette Fleet); *Pretty Lady II, Pacific # 295; *Darwin, Marscot/O'Day #20; *Les Breeland's A-Breeze, Yankee #171; * Alden Harris' Schipperke, Pacific Dolphin #263;

Webmaster Note: Sometimes boats reported as total losses by the insurance companies get salvaged (Dick McCauley's #11 Windsong an example - now Kitty C)

Our 215th is Pacific Dolphin #296, Calgary, Alberta, Canada; our 216th is Nellie Gray, Yankee #88, Sausalito, California; Our 217th is Max Sheppard's Sea Fox, Neenah, Wisconsin; our 218th is Gabriella, Ithaca, New York; our 219th Paul trokel's Blue, Yankee #145; our 220th Ralph Folsom's and Pixie Haughwout's Ensemble, a Pacific Dolphin 24, De tour, Michigan; our 221st Vince McCluskey's TERN, Yankee #123, Red Bank, New Jersey; our 222 is Stephanie Lucas' Adelante, Yankee #127, Alameda, California
