elansprint72 Posted June 21, 2008 Share #3 Posted June 21, 2008 There is a model yacht on my window-sill which looks just like this lovely old boat. Is it still in use (when rigged)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roguewave Posted June 22, 2008 Author Share #4 Posted June 22, 2008 There is a model yacht on my window-sill which looks just like this lovely old boat. Is it still in use (when rigged)? Yes Pete. This was Olin Stephens's first commission for a one design in 1929. Our club has had several of the boats (all of maghogany), rebuilt in Mystic , CT. I'm eyeing one for the coming years. Very similar to a Shields. Last year MBYC sent a contingent of 2 crews to the UK to race there in a similar design. We won the series (yeah !!!), Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
