24' S&S Dolphin 24 Sloop (1960) - MARIONETTE

S&S Dolphin 24, designed to the MORC rule, built 1960, restored 1995. A quote – Olin Stephens to James (Sham) Hunt, Sales Mgr, O’Day Corporation, May 12, 1965:
“..we have always thought of the Dolphin as one of our best designs…”
And after 50+ years Marionette can still win races. She was 1st both days in her class, and had the best corrected time in the entire 132 boat fleet in the 2008 Around Block Island Race. And, she won again in 2010! And in 2012!! And in 2015!!!

Marionette has also thrice won (2011, 2016 and 2018) the S&S Association Global Challenge Trophy for the best performance by an S&S designed yacht. In 2009, she finished 2nd to the legendary Dorade.
