Beneteau 473 Boston
Some years ago, we chartered a Beneteau 473 in Antigua. It was a lovely boat and trip. Now, trying to piece back together some details of that charter, I would like to be able to find the boat. The boat left charter service in August 2010 and, unfortunately, the charter company no longer has any detailed records.

The information I have gathered so far includes the boat name (Rossi), flag/country of registration (Jersey), hull number (BEYA1615B505, which indicates built at the factory in France), and rough date of manufacture/placement into charter service (March or April 2005).

Last winter I had my 473 in Antigua and found a 473 in Bobbies (?) Boat yard in Falmouth harbor but it hasn't seen the water in a while since it's keel was broken off half way down. Never did find out how it got broken off.
