Talk:Landing of the Granma

message: Article previously read:
:It was purchased for the amount of MX$50,000, from a retired U.S. citizen on 10 October 1956 who had named it for his grandmother.
But, one of the external links  says:
:En el momento de la compra el propietario era Schuylkill Products Company Inc.
:(translated) At the time of purchase the owner was Schuylkill Products Company Inc.
So I have changed this.  Just making a note of it here in case this Cuban source turns out to be wrong or missing some detail. –Andyluciano 19:18, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Does anybody else find it strange that 81 people fit into a 60 foot boat?  Doesn't seem reasonable.  Also, did they stop for fuel anywhere?  I can't imagine any small cabin cruiser going 24 hours a day for 7 days on internal fuel only.  Assuming two engines at a VERY conservative estimate of10 gallons an hour each, that's 200 gallons a day, for seven days that's 1,400 gallons it needs on board on departure!  Aside from the fact that that is 8,400 pounds, over 4 tons of fuel, where would they find space on a 60 foot boat for all that fuel AND 81 people AND all their baggage?  Just wondering.....98.183.25.126 (talk) 06:41, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Questions 

message: Does anyone know where the Cuban Granma boat was built? who built her? and what kind of engines she had? the wikipedia article has very little information on the Granma before Castro bought her. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granma_(yacht) , Does anyone still have the design drawings? Are any classic, wooden boat builders interested in making working copies? Does Granma have any sister ships? Do classic or historic boat enthusiasts have any interest like they do with Dunkirk little ships? https://www.facebook.com/Granma-English-230559647101175/... . Which operating boat most resembles the granma?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.176.69.242 (talk) 05:48, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
