Owner(s)
Kyle Stubbs states that "She was sold to Crowley in 1947, and renamed as the Sea Horse, USCG Official #252765. Crowley likely sold her prior to getting a new Sea Horse in 1984. By 1989, still as Sea Horse, she was owned by a W.A. Gardner of Langley, WA along with the sistership Sea Devil (YTB 407 "Lonoto"), supposedly under the intention to convert her into a fish packer. That never happened, and by the time she was dropped from US documentation in 2001, she had undergone name changes to Raggedy Ann and N.T. Covenant, then back to Sea Horse." In 2008-2023 she was owned by Dale A.S. Romagnolli & Lori Teather, Salt Spring Island BC.
