Sailing & Boatbuilding

Saga Girl at Sandy Ground. Additional information provided by Lawrence Brooks of Blowing Point, an avid race enthusiast : Saga Girl was built in St. Kitts in the early 80’s. This picture was probably taken around the mid-80’s - The gentlemen aboard may be: Buddy, James and Collins (they were crew members at that time). The others are unknown. They may have been moving the boat prior to race start with non-crew aboard.
