I really enjoyed reading about this famous Canadian fishing/racing boat. Thank you for sharing the story. Quote:
I didn't come up with my CCF Title, it was given to me after many posts in the US Commemorative Coins area. For the record - @commems CCF title was awarded after a nomination by myself and a public vote. You can read the thread here: https://goccf.com/t/300446Perhaps one of you Canuck fans can make a similar nomination .... and expand on @commems CCF title. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |

I have something in common with this fishing/racing boat; I also have the title " BlueNose" in my identity.  |

I see your title has been changed to more accurately reflect the scope of your knowledge.
Well deserved!
