Built in Bristol in 1905 by the Herreshoff Manufacturing Co., DORIS changed the course of American yachting and has been given National Historic Register recognition.

This lecture will be held both in-person and online. The in-person event will be hosted in the 2nd floor hall in 26 Burnside St. The hall is heated in the winter, but it is not handicapped accessible. Please consider this when reserving your tickets.
