Re: Etak / Te Vega
/ Yacht of Walter Graeme
Ladd |
|
Per your request, enclosed is a photocopy of
the specifications document for a yacht designed by Cox &
Stevens for Walter Graeme Ladd. Although the yacht's name does not
appear in the document, and the document is undated, I am quite
certain the document pertains to the Etak (an anagram for Mr. Ladd's
wife's first name, Kate Macy Ladd), which was built for Mr. Ladd in
the 1930's and is now known as the Te
Vega. |
|
For your information, two Ul copies and one partial copy of the original
document were recently found among a number of other documents
(unrelated to the yacht) in a farm building at Mr. and Mrs. Ladd's
former estate, Natirar (an
anagram for the North Branch of the Raritan River, which flows
across the estate) located in the municipalities of Peapack-Gladstone, Far Hills, and Bedminster, in
Somerset County, New
Jersey. |

I
hope you find the enclosed document to
be informative. We only ask that attribution be given to The Natirar Association,
Inc. |
|
Sincerely,
W. Barry
