Two weeks ago, I met Chris Finks (Maritime Heritage Coalition) at the Portland Yacht Club to personally
One of the chaps I interviewed that day was Chuck Kellogg. Chuck has been a member of the Portland Yacht Club since his youth when he first learned seamanship and sailing on the Club’s 18ʹ plywood “Flatties“. The Flattie is a sloop with a centerboard that was designed and first built in 1928 in Seattle, WA and Vancouver, BC.
Chuck currently owns a drop dead gorgeous 1937 Bridge Deck boat “Phantom”. She is 58ʹ of sheer beauty and elegance, and was built by Astoria Marine Company in Astoria, OR. Chuck also owns a 36ʹ Bridge Deck boat “Kaleta”. She is is a beautifully designed and inviting vessel built in 1928 in Tacoma, WA by Martinac Marine. Chuck had her out of the water to restore her hull last year (we’re talking major restoration), now she’s back in the water for interior and deck refurbishing (see photos below). Kaleta will be the Flagship vessel for the Maritime Heritage Coalition.
Next I was given a tour of “Marymack” – a 50+’ Bridge Deck boat that is absolutely beautiful.
Finally, I met with and interviewed Mark Hall who owns a 1961 Chris Craft Constellation that is 55ʹ of craftsmanship and stateliness.
