Under New Business:

  1. The Boatswain reported that Mr. Breen has decided to go ahead and donate Windrose, an 18-foot sloop with accommodations for four Sea Scouts plus trailer and outboard motor to Ship 25.  We are waiting word from Mr. Breen concerning when to pick up the boat and complete the paperwork.
