King’s Point Summerwind Wins Chesapeake Bay Great Schooner Race

King's Point schooner Summerwind

The  Summerwind, a 1929 Alden schooner, donated to the US Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point just last year by Mr. and Mrs. J. Don Williamson,  won the Class AA division of the Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race on corrected time.  The other top contenders in Class AA (rated length greater than 50 feet) were the Pride of Baltimore II and the Lynx, both sharp built privateer replicas.   Congratualtions to King’s Point.  A very impressive performance.
