About this product
Product Information
Eileen Ramsay was at the centre of a unique period in yachting history, and this wonderful book, featuring her classic photography, celebrates an extraordinary woman and her extraordinary subjects. Eileen's heyday was between 1957 and 1970 - a time when eccentrics ruled, records were there for the setting, and women weren't often to be found behind the lens. But Eileen established herself as one of the greatest yachting photographers of her time, taking famous portraits of such sailing icons as Sir Francis Chichester, Eric Tabarly, Olympians like Rodney Pattisson and Keith Musto, and historic pictures from the first OSTAR (Observer Single-handed Trans-Atlantic Race). She was the only photographer Sir Francis Chichester allowed on his Gypsy Moth yachts, and managed to photograph the notorious charmers Uffa Fox and Max Aitken. Her unique archive records the explosive growth in dinghy and offshore sailing during the post-war years, and includes pictures of the first Enterprises, Mirrors, Ospreys, Optimists and the first America's Cup 12 metres Sceptre and Evaine. This beautiful book features: - the post-war explosion in dinghy sailing - the growth of offshore racing - the pioneering days of the OSTAR race and solo circumnavigations - the 12 metre class and the America's Cup - post-war powerboat racing - iconic cruising yachtsmen as well as sailing eccentrics There are also wonderful personal tributes to Eileen throughout by sailing personalities such as Vernon Stratton, Keith Musto and Uffa Fox.

The kind of seller who thinks it s A) Perfectly fine to nag a buyer for Feedback Revision just because the service and item was described as Neutral and they think it should be better and B) admits they are too lazy to test items fully ( in this case a 50 minute VHS tape ) and stated in a message all items are tested briefly and that their methods of testing a 35 year old tape manufactured 34 years ago would not meet customer standards expected purchasing from eBay. Packed well & sent promptly

ID: pianobatbooks - so dramatic! A) I asked you once if you would consider changing your positively written comment to a positive rated one - hardly nagging! B) All my tapes are tested - read the description. I said my testing method may not be up to YOUR standard as you seemingly critique every aspect of your purchase in great detail as shown in your feedback left for others.
