Even the cook had to haul in time! I would like to know the arrangement regarding maintenance and staffing, I’m sure this was gig work for the Captain/ crew, I can picture their wives scrubbing their whites in preparation for next week’s outing. I’m curious how that all came together.
Thank you for the interest. Yes, we do have the full video, so I will post the other material over the next few days (footage of the Abeking and Rasmussen dinghies is already up).
Close hauled or close reaching and doing what seems like 12 knots with only 8 degrees of heel. They really knew how to make boats back then. Now days it's all about profit. Make them look nice for the ladies but perform terribly and not all that safe anymore while being cheap to make.
Love it!
Fantastic!! Thanks.
what a wonderful time capsule

Do you have the full video available to post? As a Mattapoisett resident, I'd be interested in some of the other MYC and tennis footage
