BETTE S was built in 1968 by Ralph Stanley and Emerson (Tucker) Spurling in Southwest Harbor, ME. She was named after BETTE SPURLING, Tucker’s wife. She was an active lobster boat in SW Harbor continuously until the summer of 2010.

CHAMPION, copper riveted teak, was the smallest yacht of her time to do a west to east circumnavigation in 1980 by the well known sailer, Larry Briggs (who did 3 more trips around the world on subsequent vessels).
