Lightship 76 
Now The Maude Morgan
100 YEARS LATER ! !

Our Past President Jim Gill spent over three years looking for this Ship. The trail ran hot and cold and hot again. Always the eternal optimist Jim never gave up.

When Jim Crossed Over The Bar our Secretary Rick Bennett picked up the torch and continued the search for the Ship. In a period of time less than 90 days Rick found the Ship in Vancouver BC Canada.

Not only the fact that the Ship was found is amazing, but the fact that the Ship is still in service most every day boggles the mind ! Now Named the Maude Morgan she is privately owned and is a Fishing Ship. Her masts have long ago been removed but close inspection of the pictures sent by the owner confirms this is LV 76 WAL 504.
