Oldest videos of sailing in Bembridge Redwing keelboats

by Magnus Smith 1 Dec 2023 23:59 GMT

Our video archive is fully searchable, and linked to all the clubs and classes in our database. It is updated weekly with the latest videos of sailing, but here we delve into the past, and round-up everything that shows sailing in Redwing keelboats from Bembridge, Isle of Wight.

(These are not the same class as the Redwing dinghy raced elsewhere in the UK!)

This video from Cowes Week 1960 opens with shots of Redwings briefly, and they make a brief reappearance later in the video.

Then Cowes Week 1965 shows Redwings too.
