Description
MIT Sailing Center in Cambridge taken from the Charles River Esplanade, The day was on and off sunny and at this point a bunch of darker clouds started rolling in and gave a nice contrast to the light bouncing off the sailboats and budding trees.
The Walter C. Wood Sailing Pavilion is the oldest university sailing pavilion in the world, and was named after then-sailing master and MIT graduate of the Class of 1917, who helped spawn the MIT Nautical Association. The building was completed in 1935, and currently houses over 110 sailboats, including Tech Dinghy's, Rhodes-19's, Flying Juniors, Lasers, Mistral Surfboards, and a Hobie-18 catamaran. Aleida, a 38-foot Hinckley cruising yacht donated in 1982 by Albert Hopeman is also part of the MIT fleet.
