Each boat has a story to tell and this book features nearly two
dozen profiles of classic/unique boats, drawn from articles written
for the Westerly Sun newspaper during the summers of 2014 and 2015.
Explore not only the histories of the individual vessels, but of
their classes and designers, as well as their relationships to the
environs in which they sailed, raced, cruised and, in some case,
still operate as working vessels. These stories include the fabled
history of the cat boat; the first fiberglass sailing yacht; a NY
ferry boat repurposed as a houseboat; the oldest working fishing
boat in Stonington, CT; racing rivalries in the Sound; the French
love affair with American boat designs; and the Jazz Age era of
luxury yachting, among others.
