This weekend's annual regatta in Newport, RI included 8 of our favorite classics, plus a competitive fleet of 6 Meters and the wonderful Herreshoff S-Boats. Congratulations to Joe Dockery's SONNY, Sam Croll's ANGELITA and Joe Loughborough's BELLE for winning their respective classes. These are three mighty fast, well driven boats racing against talented competition. Well done!
