Salvaging the lead keel of the yacht Vencedor which was wrecked in a storm off South Point on July 23, 1911. The Vencedor was one of 10 or 11 yachts participating in the Chicago to Mackinac race at the time of the wreck. According to the Charlevoix Courier from July 26, a nearby motorboar named Araphahoe came to the resuce and took the crew of the Vencedor to safety in Charlevoix. Two other yachts in the race, the Juniata and Hawthorn sought shelter from the storm in Round Lake Harbor. The Charlevoix Sentinel from July 27 reported that the Vencedor wrecked off of Fisherman's Island, but this photo more resembles South Point. Learn about more shipwrecks in our Maritime Exhibit showing now at the Harsha House Museum - 103 State Street. #charlevoix #charlevoixmi #charlevoixmichigan #charlevoixhistory
