Presentation at NYYC
Another successful presentation, this time at the New York Yacht Club (Newport) on the 20th of October. In attendance were yachting writer John Rousmaniere, who wrote the introduction to Dick’s book; Dick’s long time friend Sandy Weld; plus Harry Anderson, the éminence grise of American yachting. As Dick remarks: “Never heard so many questions asked after a lecture at the NYYC.” Congratulations Dick and a very big thank you to the NYYC for hosting such an enjoyable event!
Dick and Sandy Weld
Dick presents the book to long time friend Sandy Weld. Sandy has been one of the most important figures in Dick’s sailing career and features countless times in the book. He is also the author of The Leading Edge, which details his experiences in ocean racing with Dick.
