I was out yesterday aboard
Here & Now, a wooden sloop built 2004 by Gannon & Benjamin of Vineyard Haven. We were sailing in the
Eggemoggin Reach Regatta. Zero breeze in the morning, so the start was delayed until noon. By mid-afternoon it was blowing 18 knots out in Jericho Bay. Here is
"Spartan", a NY 50 built 1912-13 by Mr Herreshoff.

There were a few schooners in the race. "Adventuress"
A William Fife design, recently restored & relaunched by Rockport Marine. |
