The 15 Metre Paula III, designed by Charles Nicholson and launched in 1913, gracefully sails close-hauled in this photo print. Created by Kirk & Sons of Cowes, the image captures the essence of early 20th-century sailing with its gaff rig and innovative Marconi topmast. Paula III was a true marvel of her time, showcasing the ingenuity and craftsmanship that went into yacht design during this era.

This photograph is not just about transportation or watercraft; it encapsulates a passion for adventure on open seas.
