I see you are an accomplished sailor, and I of iron ships 4 yrs on liberty feighter John Bown and 2 aboard USS Lexington.
It is not good to joke about such things, the Surfer Girl to all accounts is haunted and if you spent a night working on her, I will bet a paycheck by morning you will state there is something not right, matter a fact like a neighbor said "you shuold get rid of it" and he was serious.
The ex owner and myself still speak, and he is convinced that blonde was his father's girlfriend who was deceased in the late 60's. The boat sat in Surf City NJ for over 25 years in memory until his passing.
Now I am rebuilding her, and firmly believing that the ghost wishes the sea again maybe to reunite with love of simply to be free.
