5.5 Z 58 - exported to NED

A Swiss list of boats tells that Z-58 was exported to The Netherlands. A Dutch sailnumber cannot be associated, yet. There is a probability, that the boat was lost in a fire in Warmont, in 2002.

Following the confirmation from Robin A. Aisher, Z-58 is reported to have been K-10 originally; hence the data transfer of the note on Z-58.
5.5 Z-58 - Original or Alias? - 22.02.2010 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
Given the high Swiss sail number for a 1960 built boat, she was possibly imported. One boat matching year, design & builder is 5.5 K-10 "Yeoman VII". Race results & photographs of Z-58 and K-10 from 1961 to 1965 could help getting the history told. Who can contribute?
