Overview
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.

MACHINERY USE NOTES
- Underway ITASCA uses only 1 main engine & 1 generator, the 2 main engines are never used together
- Fuel consumption underway at 11+ knots (1 ME & 1 generator) averages 4,800 litres per 24 hours
- At anchor or alongside only 1 generator is required
- Itasca's main engines are medium speed (380rpm max) commercial style engines which do not fall into modern "service by the hour" schedules as you would find with Caterpillar, MTU, etc. They are typically under constant maintenance and go for years between large rebuilds. Also, as only one is used at a time means 10,000 individual engine hours is actually 20,000 hours underway
