Scene on the Sound: Invader on the Shoreline Sea

Photo by Jan Hansen

Our Scene on the Sound reporter, Jan Hansen says:

It was not difficult to spot one of the largest yachts in America as she passed by this afternoon. My marine app says that Invader left Seattle at 12:22pm headed for Port Sidney (BC).  Right now this super yacht is motoring at 12.6 knots. It was a real treat to watch this beauty “sail” by.

Said to be one of America's hundred largest yachts, the 163.7 foot Invader is out of the Bay Area and owned by broadcasting mogul Jim Gabbert.  Steel-hulled Invader was built by Codecasa in Italy. It sleeps 14 guests and a crew of 9. Top speed is 18 knots and it can go 5,000 miles without a stop.
