The Miles River Yacht Club Regatta on August 5, 1939 was in some ways similar to today’s regattas but the ladies wore pretty dresses and hats and the gentlemen button up shirts and long pants! Notice the many empty bottles! Wonder what type of sailing vessel this was? Possibly a Bugeye? Photo from the Talbot Historical Society’s H. Robins Hollyday Collection.
