Goose is one of the best know and successful 6-meters of the Sparkman & Stephens designs. She was built by Henry Nevins of City Island and launched in 1938. Her race record is notorious, winning practically every international 6-meter event between 1938-1940. She remained very competitive right up until the onset of World War II.
