Sail vs Power

Today’s photo is from the collection Mac Taylor & shows what must have been a very cutting edge outboard powered run-a-about passing the A Class yachts Nga Toa (A17) & Little Jim (A16). Now if you need a little more stick & canvas action click the links below to check out the activity at the Panerai British Classic Week at Cowes.

NGATOA is A17 & I think it is most certainly Boy Belvie at the helm, just as I had seen him many times. — KEN R
