June 16-17, 2018 Show Hours 10:00-4:00 This Vintage Motoryacht Show is produced by the Classic Yacht Association. The CYA was organized in 1969 to promote and encourage the preservation, restoration and maintenance of fine old power-driven craft. Membership information is available at the gangway. Visit our website at classicyacht.org The following vessels are on display today. A “People’s Choice” ballot is available with this program, and we invite you to vote for your favorite yacht by dropping off your ballot in the container at the gangway on your way out. If the “Welcome Aboard” sign is posted, vessels may be boarded with the owner’s permission. Please wear soft-soled shoes. Boarding vessels is done at own risk. This year’s Marque Class celebrates vessels built by the Blanchard Boat Company, which crafted hundreds of wooden boats on Seattle’s Lake Union. Look for these unique classics on Docks A and B. * * * * * ADAGIO Adagio was built in New York using Richardson’s WWII plywood technology, touted as the “Cruiser of Tomorrow”, and the hull was designed by Sparkman and Stephens in a 1943 contest. She was shipped to Puget Sound, which may account for her longevity. The Twin Crusader engines were replaced with Gray Marines in 1965. Minor upgrades have been done to the interior and systems, but her basic Sedan Cruiser design is retained. Home Port is Decatur Island where the owner’s cabin is, and her covered moorage in Portage Bay helps keep her preserved.. ALOHA A 40’ 1962 Owens Tahitian, Aloha was sold new in Seattle, mooring at the Seattle Yacht Club for 39 years, 1962- 2001. During that time, the boat was known as the Concrete Queen. In 2001, new owners named her the Jannika. Extensive restoration took place 2001-2003. The interior was gutted and all wood replaced with Honduran mahogany and raw teak. A custom stainless steel bow hatch and stainless steel mast were installed. The boat has twin Monel 60 gallon fuel tanks. Twin Chris Craft 350Q V8 engines were installed in 1970, replacing Owens Flagship V8’s. APRIL ANN Designed in 1949 by Ed Monk Sr. for Ed Reinell (of Reinell Boats), the first build occurred in 1951 as the Nancy K. Nancy K is still around as the Honey Bee and is on display here this weekend as a member of the CYA. The second and only other build to this plan is April Ann built in 1953, in Tacoma at Cummings Boat Co. (where Shenanigan's Restaurant is now) for a Mr. August Seymore. Except for different engines (Chrysler Imperials originally), the canvas and enlarged swim step, the boat is original. We have owned her for 25 years. She is homeported at the Bremerton Yacht Club. ASTELLE Astelle’s keel was laid in Vancouver, BC in 1938, though her launch was delayed until 1942 due to WWII. Originally named Double J, she was commissioned by J.J. Astell and designed by Stan Hope. She is constructed of Yellow cedar planking on oak frames with a mahogany house. Astelle’s original Chrysler Crown-6 was replaced with a 65 HP Perkins diesel in 2003. She cruises at 6 knots with a maximum speed of 9.4 knots. Her portholes date from 1919, being salvaged from HMCS Vancouver, a Canadian (ex-British) destroyer. Astelle’s sister ship, Faranda, is still sailing out of Vancouver, B.C. BACCHUS While Bacchus is not a wood classic like the other beautiful boats here, she has quite a bit of wood on her decks and trim. In fact, the owner has accused other owners of wood boats in his marina of removing wood from their boat and gluing it to Bacchus so her owner will varnish it for them, then securing it back on their own boat. Seriously, Bacchus is a 1979 trawler that has cruised all the waters of Puget Sound and traveled to Alaska numerous times. BARNACLE *MARQUE CLASS* Barnacle (www.barnacle1932.com) was designed by William Atkin, who published the plans in Motor Boating Magazine in 1929. The boat was built at the Blanchard Boat Company on a modified design by Ed Monk Sr. Launching took place on January 29, 1932. Barnacle was built for Joe Patton, a well-known marine engine dealer in Seattle. He and N. J. Blanchard worked together building the boat. CAPELLA Capella was built as a long range cruising yacht for a family of 4 and crew of 2. Designed by Bill Garden and built by Vic Franck, she was launched in 1961. Constructed of Alaskan Yellow cedar over oak frames on 10 inch centers, she is powered by a 350 hp Caterpillar D-337T. CAROLINE Caroline is a 1954 Chris-Craft Corvette, built in Michigan, and was sold originally at Bryant’s Marina in Seattle. She was hull number 7 out of 50 built, and has been owned by her current caretakers for 22 years. CINNAMON GIRL Delivered new to Palm Beach Chris Craft in West Palm Beach, Florida in 1951, Cinnamon Girl was originally named Pri Mer Go after the owner’s three daughters. She made her way to Seattle in the fifties or sixties, and was repowered by Doc Freeman's with twin OMC 305 V8 engines in 1977. Other former names include Vivace, Jolly Six and Josey II. Current owners purchased her in 1999 and repowered again in 2001, along with much refastening and main system upgrades. COMPADRE Compadre is a 43-foot bridge-deck cruiser built in 1929. She is one of three yachts built to this basic design by Stephens Brothers in Stockton, California. Her hull is Port Orford cedar on White oak frames, and her house is solid Burmese teak. She was originally powered by twin 6-cylinder Lathrop Mystic gasoline engines and was recently repowered with twin 80hp Yanmar diesels. Her interior layout and cabinetry are nearly all original. She was built for Mr. Leland Adams of San Francisco, a vice-president of Leslie Salt Co. Compadre is her original name. DAWN TREADER Dawn Treader was delivered to Seattle in June of 1956. Current caretakers are the 5th owners, for the second longest length of time which is now 15 years. She continues to be well cruised and well loved. EL MISTICO El Mistico was on the leading edge of technology when she was built in Ballard in 1927. According to an article in Power Boat Magazine, “The application of the low-powered oil engine to the propulsion of medium sized yachts and workboats is a comparatively new thing.” ENDEAVOR Endeavor is a 42', 1963 Matthews Stock Cruiser built in Port Clinton, Ohio. Current owner is its third. It was purchased by the second owner and trucked out to Tacoma Yacht Club, where it has been in the same boat house since 1978. In 1980 it was re-powered with twin 440 Chrysler, 330 horse power engines. The boat resided in the boat house at TYC for nearly 10 years unused prior to current owner’s purchase in 2009. The house and interior are mostly original. Although most vessels are commonly referred to as “Her,” this boat is not a "She"! 3 EVENING STAR Launched April 2, 1938, Evening Star’s owners have included Milt and Cynthia Henderson, Portland, 1938-1969, Heine and Peggy Dole, Gig Harbor, 1969-2000, and Tom and Ben Dyer (son and grandson of the builder), Seattle, 2000 – present. Evening Star was built as a sturdy cruising yacht, and now has cruised over 150,000 nautical miles. The Doles made only two substantive changes: addition of the flying bridge, and installation of a dry exhaust stack. They also played an important role in introducing the white Spirit bears of British Columbia to the environmental community. Evening Star has been continually operated and maintained, and has never required restoration. FANDANGO Fandango was delivered to Bryant Marine in 1947 for an officer at Meydenbauer Bay Yacht Club who named it Freelancer. Current owner’s cousin's husband recognized it as a boat he was a guest on several times. When owner acquired her, he saw she had an extra 100 gallon fuel tank in the stern bench for traveling to Alaska, and noticed first thing that she turned to port because the keel was warped. An expert shipwright explained that it was a “Monday boat,” and when it was uprighted they had not gone an extra half turn and back. Current owner says, “Heck, I had the keel built up so it is little fat at midship. Come aboard and hear more of the story.” FAUN *MARQUE CLASS* Faun is a 36’ Blanchard Standardized Cruiser, launched in June, 1926 by the N.J. Blanchard Boat Company for W.N. Winter of Medina, Washington. Her designer is Leigh H. Coolidge. Her 1926 purchase price was $6000. She is one of 25 Standardized Cruisers built by Blanchard. She is powered by a 1947 Chrysler Crown gas engine, and cruises at 8.5 knots. Her hull is cedar, her frames oak and her brightwork is teak. She still has her original Neptune cast iron stove. Her planks, frames & ribs were replaced in 2013-14. She was awarded Best Classic Power Under 40 Ft at Seattle’s Opening Day in 2018; Best Overall Power at the Victoria Classic Boat Festival in 2014; and Best Dinghy in 2015. FELLOWSHIP Fellowship started life in 1955, as a Canadian military vessel named Vixen. The vessel was used for training Naval Officers and for rescue service in BC. The vessel was subsequently purchased by a Mr. Jensen and was remodeled into a comfortable yacht and renamed Fellowship.
