Below is an extract from my
list, of Challengers, Zephyrs, Mistrals and Caravelles not accounted for during the life of this forum.
I look forward to intelligence from afar.

Not accounted for in summary:
Challenger: 23 of 54(?) built
Zephyr: 5 of 11-12 built
Mistral: 5 of 11-12 built
Caravelle: 4 of 18 built (thanks to the good work of Caravelle coordinator Scott Kraft)
I have a hunch that:
949M =
"ALLIANCE"
949SS maybe =
"PRION"
992Q or 992R = SARASEA (on Jordan Yachts brokerage list 2002)
... and it would be hard to believe that the owner of 949AA isn't aware that he/she owns Tristan Jones's Barbara...
