Old boat in a barn

I've heard of great barn finds of cars, but here in Missouri you never see this:
A 1929 Square Meter class Skarry.  It is a beautiful mahogany racer from Sweden.
Here is the Wiki link:

Hiding out in Union, MO!

The owner called because he is interested in a restoration.
Sweet!

Do you know the origin of this boat? The first two 22sk boats came to the US in 1929, and raced in Long Island sound, off NY in match races against two American-designed and -built 22sk

Hi Ken, I don't know the back story of the boat. I believe I have the owners email if you want it.
