Vance:

That boat belongs to Tom Coletcole@.... It was the inspiration
for Long Micro. The original builder (not Tom) wanted a longer boat, so Mr.
Bolger suggested stretching the Micro 3 feet. The results were so good,
that Phil later drew the Long Micro.

This is the story as told to me by Mr. Cole. For more details, or
verification, write to Tom, he is approachable, and generous with his time.
