For more information on membership levels and benefits, please visit www.mvmuseum.org Changes In a year of changes for the Martha’s Vineyard Museum, this journal is changing as well. Beginning with this issue, it returns to the quarterly publication schedule—February, May, August, November—that it fol- lowed for its first fifty years (1959-2009). It does so, moreover, under a new title designed to highlight its connection to the Museum and, by evoking the spirit of publications such as the William & Mary Quarterly and New England Quarterly, to highlight the mixture of scholarly content and ac- cessible writing that have always been its hallmark. Scholarly articles rooted in original research remain, as they have been for six decades, the backbone of this journal. The current issue presents two exceptional ones: one by a frequent contributor, and one by a new ad- dition to the ranks of Vineyard historians. The return to four issues per year will, however, also give us the freedom to run additional features— some new, others familiar from decades past—that will provide a deeper, richer understanding of Vineyard history and culture.

    America’s Cup Hall of Fame One Burnside Street PO Box 450 Bristol, RI 02809 The Yankee Project Documenting the History of the To Whom it May Concern: J Boat Yankee and the Men and Women Around Her The purpose of this letter is to suggest the nomination of Gerard B. Lambert to the America’s Cup Hall of Fame. Earl Boebert Lambert’s connection with the America’s Cup spanned 28 years. In 1930 he 9219 Flushing Meadows Drive was a member of the Weetamoe syndicate, and helmed Vanitie in tuning races NE to prepare Enterprise for the event. In 1934 he was a member of the Rainbow syndicate. In a gesture of typical sportsmaship, he volunteered Vanitie in Albuquerque NM 87111 tuning races against his old friend T.O.M. Sopwith’s Endeavour. During the 505 823 1046 event he commanded Sopwith’s power yacht Philante. In 1937 he [email protected] campaigned Yankee in the Defender’s Trials and again took command of Philante during the event. In 1958 he was a member of the Columbia syndicate. Lambert’s most visible contribution to the America’s Cup came in 1935, when at considerable personal expense, he purchased Yankee, had her extensively refitted, and sailed her and his schooner Atlantic to England for a series of highly publicized races. This gesture was made in response to the treatment of the protest controversy surrounding the 1934 Cup in the British press. His charm and sportsmanship endeared him to the British public at a time when the two countries needed to be close.
