Sloop Beatrix-1
Charles A. Prince and Dr. John Bryant's racing sloop Beatrix, later rechristened Harpoon. She was yacht designer Edward Burgess's natural evolution of the compromise sloop, the only centerboarder of new 1891 46-footers and the only real contender to the class champion Gloriana. Pictured here in the Eastern Yacht Club annual regatta, which she lost on corrected time to George Caspar and Charles Francis Adams' 40-footer Gossoon. A year later the Adams brothers bought the Beatrix and rechristened her Harpoon.
