Flicka No Name

History of No Name

Hull 284 was built in 1984 as Gamine and owned by Steve McWherter, later passing to John Canter. Ryan Langley bought her in April 2026 and has kept her on the Rio Dulce in Guatemala, where she lies under refit. She carries no name on the registry yet — her owner refers to her informally as Flicka of Rio Dulce — and a rename is expected.

Flicka Friends #35 (Summer 2005) records a Flicka named Gamine at the 2005 Long Island Sound rendezvous; the newsletter gives no hull number, so it is the registry that identifies her as this boat. George Rodriguez's account records Steve and Monica McWherter arriving with their son Kenny, and describes the company at dinner listening to Steve recount a single-handed round trip from New York to Bermuda that he had just finished. His photographs from the same weekend show Gamine lying third in a raft of seven Flickas on Long Island Sound, between Willa and Paradox.
