Rosita had a black hull and was named "Slow Motion" when the previous owner bought her. He had her hull and deck non-skid areas painted with AwlGrip "Moondust" and change her name to "Satori."

I was contacted by the original owner, Paul, who bought hull number 76. The original gel coat is black and she was in the 1976 Annapolis Boat Show. The original Bill Of Sale was for $52,000 and she was sold as a "1977" model. Paul met Bob Wright and his son at the factory in the Catskills.

Paul owned her about two years and had her documented out of Hawaii although she was never there. That was certainly curious to me when I first saw the history of her documentation.

Paul originally named her Mariner 3. She also has Lilypad and Toroca listed on the Coast Guard documentation site. So her name has changed over the years: Mariner 3, Toroca, Lilypad, Slow Motion, Satori, Rosita.
