Cowes Fitzgerald Isle Kings Maurice Regatta Week Wight Winner Ketch
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of triumph for Sir Maurice Fitzgerald and his ketch, Julmar, as they crossed the finish line to win the coveted Kings Cup at the 1911 Cowes Week Regatta on the Isle of Wight. The Kings Cup, one of the most prestigious trophies in British yachting, has been contested during Cowes Week since its inception in 1826. Sir Maurice, an accomplished sailor and racing yachtsman, had previously won the regatta in 1909 with the schooner "Lulworth." The image portrays the thrill and excitement of the race, with the ketch's sails billowing in the wind, the crew's focused expressions, and the surrounding waters churning with the wake of the competing vessels. The backdrop of the picturesque Isle of Wight coastline adds to the sense of history and tradition that surrounds Cowes Week. Sir Maurice Fitzgerald's victory aboard Julmar marked a significant achievement in the annals of sailing history. The photo serves as a testament to the skill, determination, and passion of the sailors who have competed in the Kings Cup and Cowes Week Regatta over the past two centuries. This photograph is not only a valuable historical record but also a stunning work of art that captures the essence of the sport and the spirit of competition.
