Malabar X is the schooner the yacht designer John G. Alden built for himself to win the Newport Bermuda Race. She won her class in 1930 and took first place overall in 1932, smashing the record.
From the Perry Marina on Stock Island she sails out for the sunset over open water. Help raise sail, take the helm, or settle in on her teak deck with a glass of wine.
The marina has plenty of parking, and bars and restaurants a short walk from the dock for dinner after.
