Watershed got this email from Sally Huber on Cape Cod:

Hello My husband was building an I 550. He passed away last June and I would like to donate it to a good cause. The hull is pretty much finished , and I do have the mast and keel bulb and also a trailer. Mike put so much into this boat and I would love to see it finished and sailed. I live on Cape Cod. We did stop in to see Hot Canary and got the tour on our way to No. Michigan. My husband Mike “Bear” was a sailmaker for 40 years and until retirement owned and operated North Sails Cape Cod. Thank you so much.
Sally Huber

Hi there i550 board, I may have a taker here in Nashville - potentially doubling our fleet size! Seriously, I would love to get a second i550 out for Wednesday night summer series. Please PM me with contact information for Sally Hunt, or send her mine. Fair Winds, James

The boat might have secured a home in Montreal, Canada. I will try to confirm
