Summerwind
1929 102’ John G. Alden Schooner
_______________________________________________
Summerwind is a 102 foot-long schooner built in 1929 as Queen Ti for owner Arthur Crisp.
​
From the white oak log for the keelson to the clear douglas fir for the planking to foundering the fasteners, this was one of Moores Marine's great shining moments.
​
Just three months after we launched her, Summerwind went on to win at the Newport Bucket.
​
After her win, she was donated to the US Merchant Marine Academy in Kingsport, NY, to be used as a training vessel.
 Summerwind in her original glory. |  We had plenty to do. |  Summerwind allowed us to do some of the greatest work of our career. |
|---|---|---|
 In no time, Summerwind was ready and in racing shape at that! |  Summerwind sailing off. |
