The Cayman Catboat Club will hold its annual David Foster Memorial Race Saturday.

Kem Jackson poses with the catboat he has spent several months painstakingly restoring for the new Kimpton hotel, where it will serve as a sculptural installation.

The Kimpton Seafire Resort and Spa, now under construction on Seven Mile Beach, will feature an eye-catching piece of Cayman maritime history when completed.

Part of Cayman Islands’ history was on display at Easter catboat regatta on Monday in the sea off George Town.
