Whitehawk. She is 105' long and was designed by Bruce King using Herreshoff's famous Ticonderoga for inspiration. She was built of cold molded wood and West System by the short-lived Renaissance Yachts in Maine in the 1970's. (They also built the sloop-rigged 90' Bruce King boat Whitefin a few years later.)
She is an absolute beauty. I love Bruce King boats. The masts on Whitehawk have excellent rake.

Yes Whitehawk (found out the name afterwards).
Photo was taken just South of Mt Hope bridge, I read somewhere that Prince Albert of Monaco was onboard that day.
