J&k Smit Yachts ITASCA
175' - J&k Smit Yachts - 1961
ITASCA was originally built in 1961 as an ocean-going tug by J&K Smit of the
Netherlands. Known as THAMES III she was in commercial service until 1979. The
conversion to a private yacht was undertaken by new owners, an American family,
who renamed her “ITASCA“. She is one of three built with only ITASCA still in
existence. ITASCA’s conversion has been very tastefully completed over the years with each
owner adding and improving her to make her what she is today. She is a country
home on the water with large windows and all amenities, including large gym and
sauna.
