Cangarda
The Cangarda is a 126-foot (38 m) long luxury steam yacht built in 1901, at the Pusey and Jones Shipyard in Wilmington, Delaware. In the late 19th and early 20th century, huge fortunes were made prior to US income taxation. Opulence in homes and yachting reached a peak; many small private steamships like Cangarda were produced in the US, Britain and Germany for the very wealthy. However, Cangarda is the last surviving US-built steam yacht in the US, and one of only three left in the world.
