Emily,
Yes indeed, forgot the family history exactly. The museum has their old cameras. Imagine how hard it must have been to catch dramatic, action stopping, yet gorgeously composed shots with their old custom, tele Graflexes. Like yourself, I'll bet - they knew sailboat maneuvers and exactly when the peak moment is.
Way back in the 'eighties I got my only action shot of a J boat!
