PHANTOM has served many years as the host classic at the Olympia Wooden Boat Festival. Jensen Motorboat Company has operated from the same Portage Bay (Seattle) location since 1927. Whether great hydroplanes such the "SLO MOS" or great cruisers such as PHANTOM, Jensen's are among the finest.
Propulsion: Chrysler Royal M-8 gas engine, two 60 gallon tanks. Cruising speed 6 to 8 mph, 3 gallons per hour at 1500 rpm.
This yacht has been accepted and is currently registered as a Classic vessel with the Classic Yacht Asssociation.
After 37 years, PHANTOM seeks a new steward to carry her forward. Boathouse kept for all that time, PHANTOM has benefitted from excellent care and careful upgrading. Built by the famous Seattle boatbuilder Jensen Motorboat Co. on Lake Union, she has plied the waters of the Pacific NW for 93 years and is ready to carry on that tradition. Her boathouse is also available for purchase ($49,000) - membership in the Olympia Yacht Club is required.
