The 19-metre class Norada, Wendula & Mariquita racing close-hauled, 1911
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a thrilling moment in the world of yachting during the early 20th century. The image showcases three magnificent sailing yachts - Norada, Wendula, and Mariquita - engaged in an intense race while navigating through the waters off Cowes, Isle of Wight. Designed by renowned naval architects Alfred Mylne, Charles Ernest Nicholson, and William Fife III respectively, these elegant vessels represent the epitome of engineering excellence and craftsmanship. With their gaff rig sails fully deployed and leaning against the wind at a close-hauled angle, they showcase both power and grace as they compete for victory. The International Rule governing yacht design at that time ensured fair competition among different classes based on length. These impressive 19-metre class boats were built to push boundaries and test sailors' skills to their limits. As spectators line the shores cheering on their favorite contenders amidst a backdrop of picturesque English countryside scenery, this photograph transports us back to an era when sailing was not only a sport but also a symbol of prestige and adventure. Preserved with monochrome charm, this historic snapshot reminds us of the enduring allure of sailboat racing as well as its rich heritage rooted in innovation and tradition.
