44326, 44353 and 44332

Doe’s anyone know at which US Coast Guard Stations 44326 and 44353 were stationed at?




Also can anyone confirm that it was 44332, which was sold to the Canadian Coast Guard in 1966?

Re: 44326, 44353 and 44332

44326 was at Boothbay Harbor Station in Boothbay Harbor, Maine. I'll shuffle through my shoeboxes at home to see if I can find any old pix for you. The only picture I can remember involving 44326 was a pic I took of the Friendship Sloop Races in '75 from aboard. I also had a pic of me at the helm, but I haven't seen that in a lot of years! I'm sure I never took any decent shots of 44326 tho.

44332 was stationed at Ocracoke Island. I was stationed there from 1982-1984. Our 44 was 44332, the 41 was 41451 and we also had a 22 foot Boston Whaler with twin 100 Evinrudes. I forgot the # on the 22 but it was a lot of fun when the sound was slick cam!
