US motor yacht Wanda (1922)

90 ft motor yacht Wanda, designed by naval architect Ted Geary and built by Seattle Blanchard boatyard for lumberman C. D. Stimson in 1922. My restoration and colorization of the original 1922 image in the Museum of History & Industry (Seattle) archive.

Wanda, the oldest fantail registered in the US, is since 2009 owned by Andrew Roettger (San Francisco). She has been fully restored and completely rebuilt.

 

"Throughout her life Wanda has been berthed in Seattle, Los Angeles and San Francisco Bay. She won the Alaska long-distance Classic Yacht Race in the 1960’s, a 1000 mile port to port race and is often featured in the Classic Yacht Association Articles, has been the Featured Vessel for San Francisco Bay’s ‘Blessing of the Fleet’ 2015, 2016 and was the State Vessel for 34th America’s Cup, San Francisco Bay."
