The classic yacht "Discovery"
A Colorful History
"Discovery" was originally designed and built as 'Holiday' for William Morris Jr. of the William Morris Agency in 1931 in San Pedro, California. If her walls could talk they would tell stories of hosting the who’s who of times past. Actors, Actresses, Singers and Stars alike enjoyed the same salon walls that we have the opportunity to enjoy today. She 
was quite the yacht of her time and written up in many articles and publications making commendations to her beautiful lines and first class accommodations. She is still quite the Yacht. From her Teak decks and deckhouse to her fine Mahogany paneling she reflects an era long past when craftsmanship meant pride in artistry. It was said of her, shortly after her launch by Pacific Motor Boat that she was "Designed specifically to obtain just the arrangements specified by Morris, who evidently demanded comfort and convenience in all matters aboard ship as well as a sturdy sea-going vessel inspiring confidence in her abilities by her very appearance." We believe that statement still holds true today.
Boat Layout
Discovery features six private staterooms all with opening portholes, two heads and two showers below deck. On the main deck she features beautiful Mahogany dining and main salons, an on deck head, a full service galley and fantail lounge. She can accomodate up to 12 guests.
Her Length on deck is 87', Width 18'6" and Draft 8'6". Average cruising speed is 8-12 Knots with a range of 1200 miles. Water tanks hold 600 gallons of fresh water with a 600 gallon per day watermaker. Just because you will be cruising on a 1931 Classic Yacht doesn't mean you have to forgo the conveniences we have all come to embrace. Discovery is outfitted with TV, VCR, DVD, CD, Stereo, XM Satellite Radio and an extensive video and music collection. We also have a large library of books from the latest novel to informational books on Classic Yachts, the San Juan Islands, Alaska or any wildlife in between. On the top deck we carry two Boston Whalers, four Kayaks and ample fishing gear for guests to enjoy at their convenience.
