The Pious Puffin II was next purchased by Russell Crenshaw, President of Walker & Crenshaw, New York. According to his son Dale, “My Dad and crew flew to Europe and sailed the Pious Puffin over from Amsterdam in the mid-1950’s and then he registered it in Panama. He never really kept it in Panama, but moored it in Nassau, Hopetown (Abaco Island, Bahamas), Ft. Lauderdale, Fl, and in Rye, New York at various times.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Crenshaw had her registered in Panama starting in 1957, and she remained registered there until 1963.
