I currently own B.B. Crowningshield "ANONA" built in 1904. Chris Matoon of Berkshire Wooden Boat and I (Tim McElroy of Classic Sailboat Shop) just teamed up and purchased her from the family who have owned her since 1964. We just returned from the Wooden Boat Show in Mystic Seaport where we had her on display and for sale. "ANONA" was received with rave reviews from Seaport Staff as well as show goers alike. We have her looking spectacular with her new paint and varnish and are looking for a knowledgable buyer who will restore her so she will be sailing another 107 years!
she is currently located in teh Berkshires of Western Massachusetts.

Its really a shame this boat belongs back in Sodus, if I had 9,000 I would buy it and donate back to Sodus for the wooden boat museum or to Clayton. My grandfather sailed this boat, I would love to sail it too someday but "such is Life"
