Pond boat in the form of a motor yacht, of the Art Deco period. The boat has a cabin with three windows on each side, the interior with bench seating. In the front of the cabin is a cruciform mast. The top of the boat is mahogany, the sides are painted marine white, and the bottom is red. It rests on a stand conforming to the keel that was apparently made at the same time and stained to match the top of the boat.
Condition: Generally very good with the usual light overall wear. Varnish and paint with the usual wear, soiling and irregularities.
