My favorite yacht was Lawley .
In England. In 1851 he moved his
family to Massachusetts.
Family lore states that the
steamship passed the yacht
AMERICA on her famous
Cup voyage and set the
family on its road to
subsequent Cup victories.
After working for
Donald McKay, George founded
his own shipyard in Scituate,
Massachusetts.
