Does anyone know the whereabouts of KC10410? It was my fathers old boat and sailed out of SSC. It, and its sister hull KC10409, were Lightfoots very first Fireballs after my father approached him about building one. I believe he was building Enterprises before that. I remember visiting his shop when my father and his friend picked up there boats but I was only about seven at the time. The boat was is very distinctive as, for some reason, Lightfoot used two distinctly different coloured pieces of magogany for the deck, one light and one dark. I don't know why, but my father had to live with it and explain it for years after.
Anyway, he sold the boat in 1989 (I think) to a woman in Victoria (I think). He doesn't remember, but I have been curious for many years now if the boat is still around and being sailed.
