Default (WA) Finding my Dad's boat

I know this is a long-shot, but I am trying to trace my Dad’s old boat.

(Sorry, nothing to do with cars, although I’ve always felt that Cars & Boats go together.)
Actually, IIRC the Engine in the boat was based on a Windsor, so there’s the tenuous connection.

This has tremendous sentimental value for me and my family.
The boat is a 23ft Caribbean Hardtop (no fly bridge.) The model is “Crusader” and I think it is sometimes referred to as a “sedan”?
It was white with blue trim, and had blue cover and curtains. It was named “Mykonos.”
Dad sold the boat in the late 90’s and I understand that it may have been renamed “Star of the Morning”?
I would like to buy this boat back and restore it.

If anyone in WA thinks they may have seen it around, please let me know.

Thanks.

Have you tried the marine licensing department or what ever they're called.
If you know the old license they may be able to track it for you. They can with cars.

I tried transport WA. I had the old registration number, and they were gracious enough to tell me that the registration is nolonger current, but weren’t allowed to give me any further info.
