Following on from the successful scanning of the entire
Lloyd's Register of Yachts
, AYH have now completed this, our latest historical yachting resource project and it is available for purchase.
One of the problems that bedevils researchers is getting ready access to original and reliable source material.
The Yachtsman
certainly fulfils that criteria. The standard of its journalism was very high, not only in terms of writing but also accuracy. It carried excellent reports from local yachting centres around the British Isles about vessels in build, naming both the builder and designer, profiles of yachting personalities etc.
It contained very detailed reports on individual yacht races run by clubs great and small, including the America’s Cup; The Big and J Classes; the rise of the great racing schooners; the growth of motor yachting, large and small; it provided reports by class on the results for the previous year; it had lively comment on the latest rating rules and their deficiencies. You name it –
The Yachtsman
covered it. Finally, each weekly number carried not only a fine whole page image taken by the best marine photographers of the period, but its individual reports were often accompanied by photographs of vessels or yacht owners.
