EDITORS COMMENTS
The 6 Metre Bathsheba, a majestic sailing yacht built in 1933 by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, is captured beautifully in this vintage photo print. Formerly known as Naushabah, this Fife-built vessel showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of Arthur Henry Kirk and his son Edgar WP Kirk. With its sleek lines and Bermuda rigging, the Bathsheba epitomizes the elegance and grace of sailing yachts from the early 20th century. This close-hauled view highlights its impressive size and impeccable design, making it a true masterpiece on water. Moored off the coast of Cowes on England's Isle of Wight, this monochrome image transports us back to a bygone era when yachting was not just a sport but also an expression of opulence and sophistication. The Bathsheba represents William Fife III's renowned International Rule designs that set new standards for racing yachts during that time. As we admire this remarkable sailboat against the backdrop of serene waters, we can almost feel the thrill experienced by those who were lucky enough to sail aboard her. A symbol of timeless beauty and nautical excellence, the 6 Metre Bathsheba continues to inspire awe among enthusiasts even today. This photograph serves as a testament to both Kirk & Sons' legacy as master shipbuilders and William Umpleby Kirk's vision for creating exceptional vessels that have left an indelible mark on maritime history.
