"Maybe some owners will stumble onto the site at some point"
There were 10 Zephyrs (plan 959-A thru K) built between '61 and '63 with 2 of them being yawls (959C&D). Construction was by Halmatic with finishing by LeCompte. From the projects displayed here, the Challenger and Zephyr appear to have identical construction methods with the exception of cabin trunk and cockpit.
I've always admired the Challengers and found my boat while searching for one. If anyone is interested, I still have an old listing for the '64 Challenger "Blue Angel" along with a bad copy of Alden sales literature.
I'm the 3rd owner of "Orca" and have been upgrading her since '84 for Florida & Bahama cruising.
