Beckwith Honored

Sted Beckwith, development officer for Etchells Fleet 4, received the Ben Smith Race Week Trophy for 2006.

The Ben Smith Race Week Trophy was donated by the Corinthian Yacht Club in 1997 in memory of US Senator Benjamin A. Smith II, a long-time participant in Marblehead Race week, a charter member of Etchells Fleet 4 and a member of Corinthian Yacht Club to commemorate his love of the sport and promotion of the Etchells class.  It is awarded for “Above and Beyond” Contribution (not necessarily racing) to Raceweek by an Etchells Fleet 4 member.

The trophy is on permanent display at the Corinthian Yacht Club
