Atlantic 1905 History:

The Atlantic yacht was built in 1903.  In 1905, Atlantic model ship became famous when it was featured as one of eleven yachts that will be competing for the Emperor's Cup put up by Kaiser Wilhelm for a race between New York and Lizard Head, England.  Charles Barr, Atlantic's professional captain and a veteran of America's Cup campaigns in Columbia (1899 and 1901) and Reliance (1903), drove the powerful schooner through a violent gale to a crossing in 12 days and 4 hours.  Atlantic's 348-mile day's run on May 23 to 24 and that no other ships comes close and Atlantic's over-all time was not beaten until 1968.

During World War I,  The Emperor's Cup was publicly smashed by Marshall, with the intention of donating the gold to the Red cross.  It was found out later that it was a gold-plated pewter at 35$ worth.  Atlantic was then sold to James Cox Bradley, serving as a subchaser tender. After World War I, the ship was sold again to Cornelius Vanderbilt.  Atlantic did little racing and in World War II, it was transferred to the U.S. Coast Guad to serve as an antisubmarine.  After the war, Atlantic was brought to the U.S. Coast Guard Academy for sail training.
