About Siskiwit

Put simply, Phil Rhodes designed beautiful boats. Restoring them, of course, is invariably a more challenging task, but not when one spreads the work over 26 seasons.

About the Captain

Henry Young enjoyed ownership of Siskiwit from 1989 – 2015. Together they have sailed all of the Great Lakes, Hudson River, and from Castine, Maine, to Ft. Lauderdale. Once in the Bahamas, he followed the log of Christopher Columbus 500 years later.
