"In all her glory" captures the magnificent of Sir William Fife III 1921 sloop "Clio", designed for himself at sixty-four. Known as Sheevra when rebuilt entirely in 1983 by Donn Costanzo, Jeff Law and Olive Adshead in Santo Stefano, Italy and still racing today in the Oyster Bay spring, summer and fall classic races. Amid so many beautiful classics she is in the opinion of his artist, the bell of the ball. Pictured here she is helmed by none other than Donn Costanzo and with wind in her sails on a bright sunny day she is indeed in all her glory.
