EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the moment of triumph for the Flica yacht as she proudly flies her flags at the end of her victorious 1933 racing season. The Flica, a 12 Metre Class Racing Yacht, was built by the esteemed Scottish shipbuilders Camper & Nicolson in 1929, under the visionary design of Sir Richard Fairey. Launched on May 9, 1929, this British yacht quickly made a name for herself in the international yachting community, winning numerous races and accolades. Designed according to the International Rule, the Flica was a masterpiece of naval architecture and engineering for her time. With her sleek lines, powerful sails, and advanced construction techniques, she was a formidable competitor on the water. The 1930s were a golden era for yachting, and the Flica was a shining example of the transport and innovation that defined the sport during this period. Sir Richard Fairey, a renowned aeronautical engineer, brought his expertise in aerodynamics and materials science to the design of the Flica, resulting in a yacht that was both fast and efficient. The photograph captures the essence of this remarkable vessel, with her flags flying high and her crew beaming with pride after another hard-fought victory on the water. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of yachting in the early 20th century, and the enduring allure of the sea and the thrill of competition. The Flica remains an iconic symbol of the golden age of sailing, and a reminder of the passion and innovation that continues to drive the sport to this day.
