Cape Dory 36 named Monarch

[Barbara]

In 2002, the vessel Monarch was sold. Berthed in Cambridge, MD on the Choptank River, she was a fine sailing machine and I miss her. I have had several opportunities to visit the area after I moved away, and often wonder if that magnificent boat is still plying the Chesapeake Bay waters or if she has gone further afield.

I had the opportunity to sail her to Bermuda in 1998 with my husband and son and have fond memories of the event. She was second in her class and second overall in that event.

This missive is an attempt to find where her home waters are and to wish her new owners well. If you know of her whereabouts or are the new owners, please drop me a line. I would like to hear more of her sailing adventures.
