Hi, I saw article on Mystic Seaport and saw model of SY IOLANDA. There is also a model at New York Yacht Club. I am the grandson of the owner of the ship who bought it from Morton in 1910 and am looking to obtain a model of the IOLANDA to include in our family Museum. I seek any modeler professional or amateur to undertake such a mission hopefully using the Mystic model as a base because the NY Club has been less than cooperative. Please contact me to discuss costs and details that might be pertinent.

I am the granddaughter of the owner of the SY Iolanda and there is a book in the Portsmouth ( RI ) Public Library titled S.Y. Iolanda. The book has to stay in the library, noone can take the book out on loan from 

 the library.  In that book is a picture of my grandparents who were on a voyage on their yacht, S.Y. Iolanda and it shows my grandmother cutting my grandfather's  hair ! Once I Googled S.Y. Iolanda and to my surprise I was able to print pages from the whole book. I have every page now in a nice 3 ring notebook ! I brought it to the library and they couldn't get over that I was able to print it out !
