Description

OUR NAMESAKE

The Red Jacket Resorts take their name from the the extreme clipper ship Red Jacket. Under the command of Yarmouth's own Capt. Asa Eldredge, the vessel set a transatlantic sailing record that has never been broken.

The 251' Red Jacket, built in Maine and launched in November, 1853, was named for the Seneca Chief Red Jacket (Sagoyewatha, or "he that keeps them awake") who habitually wore a red jacket given to him by the British. The Red Jacket's figurehead was a life-size carving of Sagoyewatha presented in a magnificent fashion with beaded buckskins, a red jacket, and a feather headdress. To the end of her sailing days, Red Jacket was considered the most handsome of the large American clippers.
