Can't find a lot on this one, but there is an interesting story anyway. The vessel was apparently valued at $250,000. After its loss, the owner acquired a newer bigger vessel that he named Alexander II. On an August day in 2009, he attempted to sink that vessel, but it was towed in, and he was accused of insurance fraud. Makes you wonder what just happened to the first boat!
