Aboard the tall ship "Zodiac" we went cruising through the San Juan Islands in the Puget Sound area of Washington State. Here we are anchored in Reid Harbor on Stuart Island in the San Juan Archapelego. Built for the heirs to the Johnson & Johnson family; the Zodiac was designed by William H. Hand, Jr., to epitomize the best features of the American fishing schooner. In 1928, she competed in the Transatlantic Race for the Kings Cup where she finished in fourth place. During the Depression, the Zodiac was sold to the San Francisco Bar Pilots, and renamed California. She worked the rugged waters outside the Golden Gate for forty years, retiring in 1972, as the last working pilot schooner in the United States.
