We added ten new Johnston photographs to http://www.jsjohnston.org
today, including the following yachts from 1885-1899:

- Saghaya
- Vigilant (the 1893 America's Cup winner, designed by Nat Herreshoff)
- Fugitive
- Volsung
- Cyclone
- Pilgrim (the 1893 Boston candidate for the America's Cup)
- Tigress (the Phil Ellsworth-designed sloop?)
- and an interesting but unidentified 1888 race (can you identify it?)

Enjoy! And let us know if you can indentify or add any new information
to any of these images. (Right now we know nothing about Saghaya,
Fugitive, Volsung, or Cyclone - do you?)
