Tamaroa is now 60 years young

this year marks the 60th anniversary of the launching of the Tamaroa as the USS ZUNI. Though she started out life in haze gray, after 3 years in the Navy she did 48 years in the Coast Guard before decommissioning. We have decided to paint her in her 1950's paint configuration which was a black hull and white supstructure. The reason why is that it is the consensus of all concerned that a black hull is easier to maintain. Besides she looks really sharp in black and they won't let us steam with the racing stripe anyway.See drawing below:
