AMERICAS CUP PRESENTATION

Submitted by ub on

Captain Dick Sadler, a distinguished family member of one of City Island's Royalty has kindly agreed to share some of his photographs with City Island Images and will be outlining some of his insights at the local Nautical Museum this weekend.

His America's Cup presentation will take place this Sunday the15th at 2 pm. He tells City Island Images that his multimedia presentation will run approximately 1 hour as an audio, slide and video treat. Some of these pix are a short tease and a fair sampling of the topics to be discussed.

There is the keel that won the America's Cup for Australia in 1983... after 132 undefeated years of American wins.

Courageous 1977 with Australia in the background "Meeting Australia for the very first time was tension filled"

Finally, the "New America's Cup going on now in San Francisco in high speed catamarans doing up to 50 mph.

City Island Images would like to tank Captain Sadler and also invite everyone in the area to visit the nautical museum on Sunday.
