Stormy Weather, S&S design no. 27, October 1933

Adapted from an unfortunately unidintified County Cork, Irish newspaper

SINGULARLY IMPRESSIVE: Pictured at Crosshaven Boatyard, Co. Cork, yesterday before he left for Portsmouth to prepare for the Fastnet race, was 47-year-old Paul Adamthwaite, from Nanny Cay, Tortola, of the British Virgin Islands, aboard the Stormy Weather. The Stormy Weather is 52-years-old and won the Fastnet Race in 1935, the one and only time it entered the race. The Stormy Weather and its owner have made five crossings of the Atlantic this year. [note 1]

Notes :

[ Back ] Footnote 1: Last few words, probably a typo for "... before this year."
