Original owner Foster C. Gibson commissioned the Prothero Brothers to build Trixter. He was manager of Edison Storage Battery Supply and known to the builders. Her name TRIXTER is her original name , having been named after Mrs. Gibson whose name was Trixie. The boat has traveled as far as the Aleutian Islands. When the Gibsons sold her, she was sold at Wheeler Yacht Basin in Lake Union in 1965. I purchased her in 1977 and sold her in 1985. I did not see her again until I re-purchased her in 2018. I plan to continue to maintain and improve her and also to cruise Puget Sound and the Salish Sea.
