I am seeking information on the Alden Schooner Madrigal. She is a 52' Malabar VI design. The information below is from the Alden database at MIT http://www.aldendesigns.com/99years/detail.php?ID=308
My father bought her in 1954 when she was named Rigadoon. Her bought her after the 1954 hurricane when she was sunk in Menemsha on Martha's Vineyard. He had her repaired and eventually sold her. I just want to know what became of her.
Thanks,
Caleb Slater
