Do you know Loafer the Cat?
This months is 40 years since launch of Granary Loafer AKA 'Loafer'. She was designed by a Naval architect and Seaplane engineer Bill O'Brien originally to break the Atlantic speed record. She was fast but had some technical issues en route. . I'm son of the first owner and created a page about her. The last I heard was 6 years ago she was in Antigua and called Caribbean queen. Check out the FB page or share anything you may know about her here. Thanks and
Cheers
