Wooden Boat News-pg 2
HOPE Sold: David Coleman's 1929 John Alden (this was John's personal yacht) Q-class HOPE was sold this spring to a wooden boat enthusiast from Connecticut.  She is currently undergoing remedial repairs in Mystic, CT before being sailed for the 2006 season.  The new owner has another restored Q-boat and plans to match race the two. 
HOPE will undergo an extensive restoration this upcoming winter that will restore her original fractional rig and remove cruising accoutrements that were added over the years. 
SAPPHIRE Sold: Doug and Penny Breck's NY32 SAPPHIRE was sold last fall to a dedicated buyer from Maine.  The yacht will retain its name and distinctive paint scheme.
