EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1952, showcases a stunning scene of National 12 sailing dinghies gracefully navigating a tranquil Devon river. The National 12 is a two-person, two-sail racing dinghy that has been a beloved part of British sailing culture since its inception in the 1930s. The serene setting of this image transports us back to the idyllic 1950s, a time when the West Country's rural countryside and picturesque riverside landscapes were a popular backdrop for sailing enthusiasts. The National 12 dinghies, with their sleek lines and vibrant sails, contrast beautifully against the backdrop of the tree-lined riverbank. The crew members, focused and determined, work in harmony as they skillfully maneuver their boats through the water. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, reflecting off the rippling water and adding to the sense of tranquility and timelessness. This photograph is part of a series of studies of sailing off the Devon and Cornwall coasts, capturing the essence of a beloved pastime in a bygone era. The National 12 dinghies, with their rich history and enduring popularity, continue to be a cherished symbol of the sport and the spirit of adventure that draws people to the water.
