Motor yacht Bayocean. Photo taken sometime between May 27, 1911, when the yacht was launched in Portland, Oregon, and May 21, 1913, when this image was published in the San Francisco Call. The probable location for this photo is on the Willamette River, at or near Portland, and the displayed flags indicate that this was a publicity photo, probably organized as a run-by on the river with a professional photographer on the shore.
