This description lifted from The MERmade Mechcanic Quarterly: "Dave Walker currently owns the well-appointed Argonaut II, built in 1922 of cedar, teak, and fir. This beauty exhibits the luxury and grace of a bygone era, replete with fireplace and c. 1930s pump organ. A corporate yacht of her day as the Grete M, she went on to work for the Powell River Timber Company before becoming a deacon�s mission boat, hospital, and lifeline for Canada's upcoast communities as the Thomas Crosby IV, until sold into private ownership in the 1970s as the Argonaut II."
