Ziska is 104 years old and was 10 years ago restored to near perfect condition by Ashley Butler. Sold to an American owner we had the oportunity to spend time on her over the past year. This is video taken on Ziska's last weekend on the water. The owner has decided to provide no further funding so she shall now sit and do what old wood boats do when nobody looks at them.
Ziska is now owned by shipwright Clint Thompson (friend of Ashley Butler who restored her and sailed her to the US) & is being trucked from Annapolis, MD to WA.

I Sailed on this yacht as a boy - from the age of 5 until I was ten - We used to sail around Whitby and then later in Devon England. So where is Ziska now?
