專家說明


The Royal Albert Yacht Club takes its name from the Albert Yacht Club formed in 1864 under the patronage of Prince Albert, a keen sailor. The following year the 'Royal' was added by gracious permission of Queen Victoria and at the same time the Club assumed responsibility for the Portsmouth and Southsea Regattas held in the eastern Solent. Iverna was designed by Alexander Richardson for John Jameson. She won many races, including a privately organised race against the Kaiser's Meteor in 1893. Iverna triumphed by 59 seconds after a race of almost three and a quarter hours.
