Title
English: Boat "Everett" launching from Proctor Boat Company yard, Seattle, circa 1903
Description
English: The Proctor Boat Company, established in 1900 and located at Smith Cove in Seattle, advertised "Launches, Yachts and Small Boats in Wood or Steel, Life Boats and Rafts." Owner George R. Proctor sold the company to his brother-in-law Frank Tregoning in around 1904, and the business was renamed the Frank Tregoning Boat Company. In 1907, the newly renamed Tregoning Boat Company moved from its original location on Elliott Avenue to a location on Seaview Avenue in Ballard.

This image shows the wooden naphtha launch Everett, with passengers aboard, launching from the Proctor Boat Company shed. Naphtha launches were small motor launches powered by a naphtha engine.
