Winchester (American Steam Yacht, 1907)
Underway, circa 1907-1916.
This fast steam yacht was renamed Adroit in about 1916.
Taken over by the Navy in late 1917 and assigned the identification
number SP-248, she was soon determined to be unsuitable for Naval
service and was returned to her owner in 30 April 1918.
