Nefertiti, named for an Egyptian Queen, was designed and skippered by the multi-talented Ted Hood for the Boston Yacht Club in 1962. Nefertiti's outstanding performance and ability in a strong breeze earned her a close second to Weatherly's win that year. Her seaworthiness was clearly demonstrated during her second life of ocean voyaging. She recently returned to Newport from South Africa and after a major restoration.
