View Artwork in own Page. The Yacht “Henrietta” Built and launched in Brooklyn, NY in 1861 as a pleasure yacht, she was acquired by the Union Navy during the Civil War. After patrolling Long Island waters she was armed and reassigned to South Carolina where she was used to support the fleet blocking Confederate ports. After the war and upon regaining her pleasure craft status in 1861, she participated in what was then referred to as “The Great Ocean Yacht Race” and which she won after a fourteen day crossing from New York to to the Isle of Wight. In 1872 she was lost in a gale off the coast of Honduras. My painting of the Henrietta is in watercolor and gouache on 300 lb. The painting is matted. Sight size is 7″ x 10″ with the outer dimensions of the mat being 11″ x 14″ (a stock frame size).
