Man-O-War Heritage - The William H. Albury

The William H. Albury

In the early 60‘s, the William H. Albury Boat Yard built a 70’ schooner, christened Esperanto.  She was later renamed the William H. Albury.  She participated in the 1976 Tall Ships event in NYC.  Here are a couple photos from her construction and of her under sail.
