From: Jes Staley Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2013 3:23 PM To: Jes Staley Subject: Day 11 16.48 North, 62.01 West To: Steve White and the Boys of the Brooklin Boat Yard. Some seven years ago, Deb and I commissioned the Brooklin Boat Yard to buil= a 91' yawl. In the early summer of 2009 Bequia was lowered into the wate=s of Center Harbor, and as a wooden boat, joined the fleet of wooden boats=built under the direction of the White family. We were deeply honored. There was something sincerely satisfying to be part of a sailing yacht that=shares a connection with boats like Grace, Vortex, and the beautiful Wild =orses. So many boats of "sculptural composition and curved lines" paying =omage to the artistry of boat building and the universal beauty of a saili=g vessel, have called Center Harbor home. To her owners' eyes, Bequia was=a magnificent realization of a dream, and we felt deeply indebted to the c=aftsman that built her, and the family of boats she joined. The boys of BBY labored to build a "safe, strong, and seaworthy boat". A y=cht that could take a family safely anywhere in the world. And a boat who=e beauty and warmth -- lined with cedar, ash, and teak -- would provide ph=sical comfort and visual joy to those that sailed on her. We thank again, Brian, Eric, and the rest of the crew that built Bequia. Steve once wrote, wishfully, that Bequia.."would have her own history and p=ace in the world". I hope we have made a first step in the foundation of such a history. Bequ=a has sailed into the bay of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. She has traveled sou=h to the San Blas Islands, anchoring off Achodup, perhaps the prettiest at=ll in the Gulf of Mexico. She has gone north east to Sweden and cruised t=e archipelago of Stockholm. Bequia spent two days in the Stora Nassa Skar=ard, on the edge of the Baltic Sea, where father and daughter braved the c=ld and jumped in the sea. And we raced Bequia against some of the finest yachts of Europe. In 2012 i= England, in the Penndennis Cup, Bequia came in third in class. In the 20=3, Loro Piana Super Yacht regatta, in Sardinia, Italy, Bequia let her skir= fly, and finished first in class. (With a little help from a tactician na=ed Whidden, and a helmsman named Campbell James). We are arriving in the next hours to anchor in Falmouth Harbor, Antigua, af=er an eleven day crossing of the great Atlantic Ocean, captained by Seumas=Meharg. We are sailing under yankee, staysail, main, and mizzen. For her =wner, the crossing was fulfilling an adventure harbored for years. I hope, Steve, we have respected the history of your yard, and honored the =ork of those that built Bequia. Deby, Alexa, Sophia, and I are grateful.
