Artifact Overview
Henry Ford purchased the yacht Sialia in 1917. Intended as private transportation during trips to investigate possible industrial supply sources, Sialia also carried the Fords and their guests on family excursions. Passengers enjoyed well-furnished staterooms, parlors, and a dining room, among the yacht's other amenities. The yacht was never used to a great extent and eventually was sold in 1929.
