Gadfly II sister ship does anyone if she is still around and where?

[jstarboat]

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could help me track down Gadfly II's sister ship and where she may be and if she is still sailing. This followng bit of information comes from a message I got from Andy Lawson after talking to Robert Anderson's daughter Tisha in which she states "Robert Anderson had a boat built to his own design, ‘Mandamus’, and Gadfly II was her sister ship; Mandamus had a teak deck, Gadfly II did not. Launched 1946." It would be nice to see the other yacht and find out if she is still sailing.


Kind Regards

There was a charter vessel on Chautauqua Lake New York in the 50' called the Gadfly? Are we speaking of the same vessel?

Hi kenny g
It will not be the same boat as my Gadfly is a small yacht and during the 1950's was on the East Coast of England.
