The Seafarer was built in 1926 for a Seattle businessman at Lake Washington Shipyard. This yard was known for building many commercial boats in those days, and so Seafarer was constructed heavy and strong to stand the test of time. Her hull is Alaskan cedar, with the transom, house and decks all being teak. Bronze cleats, stanchions and anchor winch compliment her strong timbers. She has sailed through Puget Sound and up to Alaska, and even spent time doing charter work on Flathead Lake in Montana.
