The History and Mystery of the Schooner America

The legendary Schooner America logged a charmed and checkered history that brought her from the famous 1851 race in England to service as a Confederate Blockade Runner to decades as a beloved private yacht.  Yet 90 years after her historic victory she ended up in ruins on the shores of Spa Creek while the extraordinary wartime boat-building of the Annapolis Yacht Yard swirled around her.

SpinSheet Magazine co-founder David Gendell has spent years researching the history and mystery of the schooner and her final days in Annapolis.  His presentation includes plenty of visuals, first-hand accounts, and explorations along the Annapolis waterfront during World War II.
