A little information here:

http://www.lwhs.us/news/news-oct2005capttanner.htm

"Built in Clearwater, Florida, the Queen of Winnipesaukee was a 46 foot Irwin Sloop, 13 tons, 13 feet wide at the beam, with a ballast of 4 tons of lead and a mast 60 feet tall above the water. The last time Captain Tanner knew the sailing yacht was in Venezuela, being sailed around the world by a young couple."
