In its history, the Dauntless was acquired by the Brown Boat Line in 1921, and it had the capacity to accommodate 100 passengers. It held the distinction of being the largest yacht on the river at the time and operated regular passenger schedules between Clayton and Alexandria Bay, New York. However, in the mid-1900s the yacht was salvaged by a local shipbuilder in Clayton. During this salvage process, the engines and most of the metalwork were removed. Subsequently, the yacht was intentionally set on fire and allowed to drift downstream from Washington Island toward Round Island.
