Sailing was one of the Kennedy family's best-known pastimes, often carried out from Hyannis Harbor into Nantucket Sound. John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline spent many summers sailing with their family in Hyannis Port. U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy often took part in the annual Figawi sailing race from Hyannis to Nantucket in his wooden schooner, Mya. The Kennedy family boats are moored at Hyannisport Yacht Club, less than one mile away.
