Historical Summary:
The M. V. Discovery was originally designed and built as 'Holiday' for William Morris of the William Morris agency in 1931 in San Pedro, California. 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, 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".
