Wilma Lee Captures Victory at Deal Island Skipjack Race

This Labor Day, the Annapolis Maritime Museum’s historic skipjack Wilma Lee shined at the 66th Annual Deal Island Skipjack Race and Festival. Competing against 12 other vessels, Wilma Lee surged to the lead at the first mark and battled through light winds to finish 3rd overall and 2nd in the non-working class skipjacks category, her strongest result yet! Captain Kevin Lyons credited the performance to recent upgrades, including a new mast rake and sails funded by the Maryland Heritage Areas Authority. With momentum on her side, Wilma Lee heads to Skipjack Heritage Day (Sept. 13 & 14) and the Cambridge race (Sept. 27).
