QUEEN'S CUP

Today I sailed the Queen's Cup, a race with no time limit usually sailed the second day of the New York Yacht Club's annual cruise.
I sailed on the six meter "Madcap", a 1921 Frederick Hoyt design, we had our own class.
This weekend was also the Folk Festival at Fort Adams so leaving and returning around the Fort was congested.
The photo of a six meter against the 90 foot "Rambler" gives you a sense of the range and scale of boats involved in the race.
