Off Market
Designed by the famous yacht designer Ben Seaborn with project consultation and sail plan/rig by Sparkman and Stephens, the magnificent 80' wooden ketch fondly known as Tatoosh was built for the Boeing family in 1961. Actor Peter Fonda purchased Tatoosh shortly after the success of the movie Easy Rider in 1969 and sailed her extensively throughout the Hawaiian Islands, Tahiti and California up until he sold her in 1985. The Cadranells of Seattle and San Diego bought Tatoosh from Fonda and owned her for 29 years. Tatoosh has been immaculately maintained throughout the years and aside from her rich history, she is an extremely well-built sailing yacht constructed with 2" Alaska yellow cedar planking, Everdur bronze fastenings and a bronze structural frame. She would make an awesome charter boat or private yacht. Don't miss the 360 degree panoramic photos on this listing to get a more personal tour.
