Beginning her life as a minesweeper in 1942, this vessel saw action with the Canadian Navy in World War II. In 1965, she was purchased and renamed the Wild Goose by legendary actor John Wayne. Converted into a luxuriously -appointed yacht, the Wild Goose served as a backdrop for celebrity events, family vacations, and infamous poker sessions with such luminaries as Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., and Bob Hope. Measuring 136 feet long with 25-foot beam, the vessel still sports the solid brass plates installed by the Navy to protect her prow while hunting for mines.
