Yacht spray started her life as an oyster fishing sloop. 11.2m long, 4.3 m wide sailing boat was at the end of her carreer when she was taken by Joshua Slocum.
For this purpose, Spray’s rigging was specially equipped to maintain its course. Otherwise it would be physically impossible for Slocum to sail around the world.
Slocum published his sailing logs and memories in 1900 as “Sailing alone around the world”. The book became an immediate success and also influenced other travelers.
Unfortunately in November 1909, Captain Slocum and his beloved boat Spray were lost.
The model yacht plans have two alternatives in the files. They both are clear and understandable. There are also some information about the boat and Captain Slocum. The yacht Spray may be lost, but you are the ones who found her again.
