THE STORY

Narrated · Plays hands-free in Travel Mode
At the Old Home Week Celebration in Boston in 1907, the schooner Rose Dorothea, captained by Marion Perry and crewed by his men, won a race for which Sir Thomas Lipton gave a cup to the winner. The cup can be seen in Provincetown Town Hall. This stone was erected by popular subscription through the efforts of the Portuguese American Civic League.
