EDITORS COMMENTS
The 4 ton yawl Mandy gracefully glides through the waters, capturing the essence of sailing in the 1920s. This photo print, taken by Arthur Henry Kirk & Sons of Cowes, transports us back to a time when boats were crafted with meticulous detail and sailed with sheer elegance. Built in Poole in 1913, Mandy showcases her timeless beauty as she cuts through the windward broadside. The gaff rig sails billow against the backdrop of England's picturesque Isle of Wight, creating a stunning contrast against the monochrome setting. Edgar WP Kirk's expert photography captures every intricate detail of this magnificent sailboat. As we closely observe this close-hauled view, we can almost feel the gentle breeze on our faces and hear the rhythmic sound of water splashing against Mandy's hull. It is evident that William Umpleby Kirk and his team at Kirk & Sons put their heart and soul into constructing this masterpiece. This photograph not only celebrates an era but also pays homage to a remarkable piece of transportation history. The image serves as a reminder that even though time has passed, there will always be something magical about sailing under full sail on a classic yacht like Mandy.
