We were lucky to be down at Great Cove earlier in the week as the sun was going down. They let Snow Falcon loose in the low light with a good breeze blowing.
She tacked, romped, and sliced at high speed through the Cove like a graceful racehorse when first given the freedom of the paddock.
Snow Falcon is a Concordia yawl (No. 84) built in 1961 by Abeking and Rasmussen. She’s almost 40 feet in overall length (39’10”) and she’s very fast for her class. She now hails from nearby Pumpkin Island at the top of Eggemoggin Reach.
