EXCERPT: INTRODUCTION - COWES - Tiny town on the Isle of Wight in the Solent waters off the south coast of England. BEKEN - Four generations of chemists, seafarers and photographers. Beken of Cowes. Names synonymous with grand yachts billowing clouds of sail, with hard pressed lean ocean racers, canvas skimming the waves and decks awash . . . Keith's son Kenneth joined the photographic business in 1970. Some of the equipment has changed. He uses Hassleblad cameras. The family now has a 21' Boston Whaler launch with twin motors. But he is no less expert on yachting and boats than his father. In the maelstrom of activity that characterizes modern yachting the photographer must be completely in the game and know exactly what is going to happen. The skill of the Bekens is well known among yachtsmen . . . Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Seller Inventory # 001799
