Description |
English: The R-class racing yacht Pirate was designed by Ted Geary and built by the Lake Union Drydock Company in 1926. Pirate was built for Tommy Lee, son of Los Angeles yachtsman Don Lee, as a reward for winning the Pacific Coast Star Championship in 1925, and embodies the most advanced skills and talents in both yacht design and yacht construction in the Seattle area in the early 20th century. The Pirate won the National Championship in the R-class in 1929. The Pirate was first lifted into Lake Union in April 1926. The ship's sponsor, Virginia Merrill, may have been one of the four people on board in this photo. The Pirate was to race against the Sir Tom, another R-class racer designed by Geary, later that week.
