'Wood,
Wind and Water, A Story of the Opera House Race of Nantucket'
"There is a sensuality
inherent in wooden sailing crafts. Sound, touch, smell, sight, and
taste are all stimulated in ways best known to those who share an
addiction to the combination of wood, wind, and water . . . these
are all subjective memories which keep this small group of people
hooked on spending arduous amounts of time, labor, love and money on
their wooden boats. They perceive themselves as custodians of an
ancient tradition in which the living tree creates a basic and
primal connection for us humans."
