It's not a Cape Dory but it's a very nice sailing video of a Herreshoff sailboat.

Nice! What a beauty! I'll never again whine about too much heel on my 25D!

Thanks for sharing this video. I've sailed on a NY30 a few times, and it was always an amazing experience.

How beautiful! Thanks for posting it. I have a friend who is restoring an old Herreshoff 12.5 and looking at her up close out of the water I thought Carl Alberg must have been thinking of Herreshoff when he designed the Typhoon. The pure aesthetics of the lines are so satisfying!

Pretty nice! I can recommend ALL of the videos by Off Center Harbor. Informative, entertaining and handsomely produced. Some achingly beautiful. Particularly enjoyable in February! Jim.

Robert thanks for sharing. The rest of those Jamestown Distributors videos are also very interesting.

Somehow I got on the Jamestown Distributors e-mail list. Not sure of the process. I get e-mails from them all the time and often with some great video. This video just really caught my eye.
