EDITORS COMMENTS
The 40-rater cutter Carina gracefully glides through the waters, her sleek silhouette cutting through the waves with precision. This print captures a moment in history, showcasing the beauty of this magnificent sailing yacht. Designed by George Lennox Watson for Admiral Montagu and built in 1894, Carina stands as a testament to both craftsmanship and innovation. The image transports us back to Cowes, England, where Kirk & Sons of Cowes skillfully captured this iconic vessel in action. The gaff rig sails are taut against the wind as Carina sails close-hauled, displaying her impressive speed and agility. With Edgar WP Kirk at the helm, she navigates effortlessly through Isle of Wight's picturesque coastline. This photograph not only showcases Carina's elegance but also highlights the rich heritage of yachting during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of how sailing was not just a sport but an expression of artistry and engineering prowess. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we can almost feel the cool sea breeze on our faces and hear the gentle lapping of water against her hull. It is a timeless snapshot that encapsulates both adventure and tranquility—a tribute to those who appreciate the allure of sailboats and their enduring legacy.
