Den capsizes during propeller test at sea
Mr. Sherman recounts the accident on the Den, a frail racing boat at 28 mph that sank after a cresting wave, leaving two occupants in the water. The craft was thin hull racing construction, and today’s test aimed to reach Jamestown for exhibition runs if successful. Herreshoff previously faced danger when the Den capsized last summer and both he and his engineer were rescued.
