Reliance Research
In the summer of 2024 I visited the Herreshoff Museum at Bristol RI and studied the two models they have exhibited of Reliance. I was especially moved by touching Reliances actual wheel. Knowing Charlie Barr was the actual wheel used by Charlie Barr to helm this imortal yacht to victory in 1903 was quite overwhelming.
All of Reliances construction plans can be viewed at the website of the Herreshoff Raisonne and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT
