Old Goats in Old Boats

Sherwood Smith will be the featured speaker for February His talk will feature the history of Alcor, a 1932 Seattle built Star boat, which was the class of Lake Washington in the 30’s and 40’s, raced by several Seattle sailing luminaries, including Frank Hiscock and Sunny Vynne, until it fell into disrepair. The boat was ultimately restored in an amazing display of craftsmanship, by Bill Brosius, and is now competitive in the Budd Inlet Star Fleet.

Last summer, Bill and Sherwood took the boat to the East Coast, and raced it in Westport, CT and Larchmont, NY, in the Star Centennial Regatta. A series of escapades, including the evasion of Hurricane Irene, added to the excellent adventure enjoyed by two “old goats in old boats.”

Come and bring a friend to yet another exciting presentation put on by one of our own South Sound Sailors.

Debe Andersen, D’Lavicea
