(Bristol, Rhode Island, USA) –
Visitors to the Herreshoff Marine Museum/America’s
Cup Hall of Fame this summer will be treated to
a view of the graceful HMCo schooner Mary Rose throughout
the season.
She was contracted in August, 1925
by Harold W. Brooks for $40,500. Starting with the
pine half-model of a 1902 cutter, Nat Herreshoff
extended the ends to create the hull of the 64 foot,
10 inch Mary Rose.
Her European owner will be using the Museum as "home
base" for the season, and Mary Rose will be
hosting Museum guests during the Herreshoff Classic
Regatta.
