Historische Notizen
George Schneider (May 2026) writes: She originally had auxiliary sails, and was sometimes described as a "two-masted schooner," but this vessel was self-propelled from the beginning.
She sank in rough weather at her pier on Lake Union, Seattle WA on 30 March 1970.
She was raised with some talk of restoring her as a museum piece, but she was too far gone for the assets available.
In 1971 this vessel was scuttled as a fish haven off Edmonds WA USA.
