Research below from Kevin Everingham of MI, 2019
1911 Philadelphia Inquirer, July 29, 1911.. "Island Heights ready for Regatta.. J.P. Everham of the Toms River Yacht Club, has his new semi-speed boat hooked up. She makes easily 18 to 20 mile an hour."

1913 Philadelphia Inquirer, Sat, July 19, 1913 (Page 5).. "Boats entered in the Inquirer's Regatta today in Barnegat Bay.. Boat; (Rilla), owned by J.P. Evernham from Toms River club.. and the boat (Levnae), owned by R. Evernham from Toms River club." It's probable that Jesse named his boat after his oldest daughter. The R. Evernham also listed was likely Raymond, Jesse's nephew.
