The fact they all survived world wars the Great Depression neglect and to see them is amazing as to how yachting evolved through all those years and workmanship
D'ya think we will reminisce as much with todays yachts in 70-100yrs time as we have done here? For me, these yachts exude sailing - just sailing, you know, a day out in a fresh breeze, then home to dinner, day boats. I just can't see it myself with today's yachts that promote living aboard as much as sailing. Isn't it fascinating how the modern yacht echoes one part of the older yachts by pretending to have a teak deck. Do you remember the day when they "Laid Down a Keel"? Now it's "Laid down a fibreglass mould".
I absolutely lost my mind watching this video, I had to watch it twice. It made me think of drinking wine, while listening to the band America on a full moon lit night with a beautiful lady somewhere in the Mediterranean.
Let's take a step back into a world of less complicated times. When worries were spread around the world over via Morse code and ice was delivered by horse and wagon.
"BEAUTIFUL" !

This is a collection of boats that make a specific section of the boating enthusiast weak at the knees.
I just died and went to sailing yacht heaven.
