EDITORS COMMENTS
The 6 Metre sailing yacht Pichin (L65), built in 1913 by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, takes center stage in this photo print. With its sleek design and Bermuda rigging, the Pichin epitomizes the elegance and grace of early 20th-century sailing yachts. Captured close-hauled on a picturesque day off the coast of England's Isle of Wight, this monochrome image showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating such a magnificent vessel. The Pichin was constructed under the International Rule, which governed yacht design during this era. The talented team behind this masterpiece includes Arthur Henry Kirk and his son Edgar WP Kirk, along with William Umpleby Kirk. Their expertise is evident in every line and curve of the boat's structure. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the wind against our faces as we imagine ourselves aboard the Pichin. This photograph transports us back to an era when sailing was not only a sport but also a way to connect with nature and explore new horizons. Let us celebrate both the artistry involved in building such majestic vessels like Pichin and honor those who dedicated their lives to perfecting their craft at Kirk & Sons of Cowes.
