Best wishes with the Island Gypsy! I recently purchased a 1995 Halvorsen 51 Pilot House with Island Gypsy fittings (e.g. at the acess doors) and nameplate. As she was missing her HIN, we had to do quite a bit of digging to satisfy all interested parties. Kong Halvorsen marketed the Island Gypsy. Joseph Kong died in about 1986 and Halvorsen bought his interest in 1990. That seems to have caused the switch to the Halvorsen name. I'm new to the Forum, I'll see if I can post a photo.
