Equator
About Equator
Equator was a two-masted pygmy trading schooner known for carrying passengers Robert Louis Stevenson and Fanny Vandegrift Stevenson on a voyage through the islands of Micronesia in 1889. She was later used as a wire drag vessel by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, and finally as a tugboat along the Puget Sound until her abandonment in 1956. Equator was left to decay as part of a breakwater before she was saved in the 1960s. Efforts to restore her ultimately failed, leaving her remains under an enclosed structure in a decaying state.
