A searchable digital archive and registry for International Metre Class yachts, their designers, owners, races, photographs, and historical records.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

The archive currently begins with International 8 Metre yachts and exposes several ways into the material: yacht records, designer histories, photographer captions, and regatta listings. Its search is designed for imperfect historical memory, accepting sail numbers, former names, misspellings, and owner or designer clues. Visible records include Princess Svanevit, Vågspel, and Ilderim, with regatta entries ranging from a 1930 KSSS anniversary event to competitions listed for 2026.
