Following is a list of boats that are planning to join us at our Fourth of July festival.
| Adventuress - 133' Schooner www.soundexp.org |
| MV Allure - 32' Power Boat |
| Launched in 1928, the Allure was originally built as a Lake Union Dream Boat style design. After a fire in the 1930s, a larger cabin was added - making the Allure an ideal touring boat for small groups. Now operated by Cedar Wave.com as a day charter vessel. |
| Althea - 38' Chris Craft |
| First owner used boat to commute between summer house on Long Island and office on Wall St. This design is considered to be the triumph of the Chris Craft Co. 65 were built between 1929 and 1932, of which fewer than 12 are known to still be afloat. Her top speed is 32 knots and she cruises about 18 knots. http://yachtflyers.com/althea/ |

| Arthur Foss - 120' Tugboat |
The Arthur Foss is one ot the oldest tugboats in existence and an important part of the history of the Pacific Northwest. In her 115 years afloat, the Arthur Foss has seen a lot of changes along Northwest shores, not as a passive bystander but as a worker helping the region grow. Launched at Portland in 1889 as the steam tug Wallowa, she was built to tow sailing ships over the Columbia River bar. She was caught up in the gold rush fever of 1898, and made several voyages up the Inside Passage towing barges packed with would-be gold miners and supplies. She served in the Pacific during WWII and briefly became a movie star in the 1933 movie Tugboat Annie. But her greatest role in the Northwest economy was her work in the timber industry. |
| Barnacle - 38' Power Boat |
Built by N.J. Blanchard Boat for Joe Patton, a well-known supplier of marine engines to Blanchard and others. The original design came from WM. Atkin , but was modified by Blanchard with the help of Ed Monk. The rear cabin, envisioned in the original Blanchard/Monk design was added in 1933. |
| Big Food - 15' Sprit Sailboat |
Tim Yeadon of Seattle took a CWB lapstrake boatbuilding class from Eric Hvalsoe, then built this John Gardner designed Matinicus Peapod. Construction is cedar on oak with a purpleheart backbone. |
| Blue Jay - 36' Chris Craft |
Blue Jay was shipped to Seattle on Feb. 28, 1941. It is believed to have been used during WWII as a patrol boat. Blue Jay name has documentation back to 1942. |
| Capolavoro - 29'6" Power Boat |
 |
| The Lamson family have been wooden boat enthusiasts and sailors in Seattle since the 1920's. Capolavoro is the only all-South African mahogany, Venice, Italy-built motorboat in the NW; imported by the Lamsons from Venice. |
| Chesuki - 20' Sail Boat |
 |
| Built in Newport, OR in 1980's from a drawing in the Dory Book. This 1915 design was raced in New England then eventually here through the 90s, cleaning up in the small boat fleet until a snipe appeared on the scene. She has sailed all around the San Juans, half the Gulf Islands and Desolation Sound. |
| Chubasco – 22' Power Boat |
| Chubasco was originally delivered to Eldon, Missouri where she ran on Lake Taneycomo. She was towed to Seattle on a converted house trailer behind a Hudson Jet in December 1955. Rick Langley discovered her languishing in a leaky boathouse in Sequim and started her restoration in 1990. Alan Thomle of Stanwood, WA and Dick Kasperson completed the work in 2000. The 22' utility or "U-22" was Chris-Craft's most popular model. The wide beam and ample freeboard provides a smooth, dry and comfortable ride. "Chubasco", a 1941 Deluxe Utility, is a forerunner in the film "On Golden Pond". Interest in restoring the old "woodies" soared after the movie. 386 Deluxe Utilities were built from 1940-1942. |
| Class Act – 42' Power Boat |
| Class Act is celebrating 61 years on the water this month; her Master Carpenter's Certificate was dated July 22, 1946. This vessel was designed and built in Chicage for the Keeler family who lived and worked in Seattle. We believe that she was shipped to Seattle by rail shortly after being built. Class Act's first name was Llarevo, which is the name of the Keeler family business, Overall Laundry, spelled backwards. It is believed that the Blanchard Boat Company maintained the boat during its first two decades. Class Act was designed by Chicage naval architect A. M. Deering, and built by master carpenter H. C. Ellis, in a large ship yard, we believe, as the war production was winding down. Class Act's flush deck design is unusual, in contrast to the more common raised foredecks on boats of this size and era. She is of carvel planked construction, with 1-1/8" Honduran mahogany planking over 2" steamed white oak frames, 9" on centers with bronze fasteners. The keel, stem, floor timbers, and engine stringers are of white oak. She is powered by twin Perkins diesel engines. Her stainless steel galley counters, hood, sink, and refrigerator box are all original and in excellent condition. |

| Cutterhead – 35' Power Boat |
| 1925 wooden boat built by Blanchard. www.mermaidyachts.com |
| Dreaming Bigger – 16' Power Boat |
| In 1904, Peter and his brothers - Ed, Chris, Ted and Tom founded the Thompson Bros. Boat Manufacturing Co. in Peshtigo, WI. In 1953, Roy, Grant and Tom Thompson, a new generation of the Thompson family launch Cruiser's Incorporated, in Oconto, WI. Cruiser's Inc. manufactures 14' - 20' cedar lapstrake boats under the Thompson Boat Company brand, while the Thompson plant is hobbled by a protracted labor strike. The first Cruiser's Inc. boat is manufactured in 1955. By 1961, 300 people worked at the Oconto facility during peak season. They were the world's foremost manufacturer of wooden lapstrake/clinker boats, producing 12 models from 14' - 20' in length. |
| Dulcinea - 28' Ketch |
 |
| "Dulcinea was built by Hank Chamberlain on Lopez Island in Washington State and launched in 1983. We are the third owners; we bought her in 1999 and had all the bright work refinished and the topsides redone by Brad Rice, “The Boatwright”, in Seattle. The structure is sound and completely original, the boat seems to be true to the plans with the addition of a sliding entry hatch and the omission of the side ports and the forward hatch. There is a simple removable motor bracket for an outboard, which gets used as little as possible as she is generally sailed from a mooring bouy. She lives in Yarrow Bay, near Bellevue, WA, and has competed in local races sponsored by The Center for Wooden Boats on Lake Union in Seattle as well as participating in the annual Lake Union Wooden Boat Show. Our son, Zach, has cruised the San Juan Islands in her, but we are happy just day sailing. The sails by Hasse & Petrich of Port Townsend are still nearly perfect and transform the slightest breeze into forward motion. She will carry full sail in over 15 knots of wind, never getting the rail completely down, just sliding off to leeward and dumping some air out of the sails, a safety feature in an open boat. We have clocked 7.5 knots by GPS on a reach in 15-20 knots of wind. We feel truly privileged to be the custodians of this delightful boat." |

Following World War II, Sea Lass passed through the hands of a number of owners before being lovingly restored in 1986, by the Vintage Boat Company of Poole (Motorboat & Yachting, July 1991). The years had taken a toll and the boat was stripped inside and out and refurbished. In 2003, Sea Lass was shipped to Seattle from the Netherlands to be sold. Silver Motor Yachts are not common this side of the Atlantic and Sea Lass is probably the only Brown Owl in North America.
