Miss Mariposa # 1946-21
 
Miss Mariposa was found in Pennsylvania. She had been in that area for quite some time.  I had heard that she was in that state so my wife and I went on a hunting expedition.  We found one of the former owners who did not own the boat any more but would not give me any info on where she could be found. We found out through another person that she went to a restoration shop on one of the Finger Lakes in New York State. We proceeded to the restoration shop and found out that the boat was in Buffalo. We got hold of the person in Buffalo and he said that he had wanted to restore her but felt he got in over his head. I purchased her and brought her home to Canada. I understand that she was originally owned by Molson Breweries in Montreal although I have not been able to verify that as yet. She is one of two of this model built by Hunter and she is the only one left as the other one burnt. Miss Mariposa also had a fire in her engine compartment. As you can see by the pictures, all the ribs have been replaced thus far.
