Description
An authentic jewell of XX century visits accidentally the Harbour of Mahon , the second largest in the mediterranean sea in date 9th of february of 2014. This beauty was s launched on 2nd April 1921 commissioned by Horace Dodge, co-founder of Dodge Brothers. She was acquired by the United States Navy in January 1942 and rechristened USS Dauntless (PG-61), to serve as the flagship for Admiral Ernest King, Commander in Chief of the U.S. Fleet and Chief of Naval Operations. Is it her last voyage? I hope no, but at least a part of her spirit will rest in our little island of Minorca. Bon voyage
