Did they make Aqua cats back then? There was a west coast fleet of sea sprites?? or something like that... Is this one of those?
Who knew that JFK sailed a cat.

a 1961 boat show in Anaheim, CA which placed Alter in a booth selling surfboards, next to Art Javes, the designer of the new (1961) AQUA CAT 12

The pic just shows JFK checking out the boat. We don't know if he ever sailed a cat. I saw a picture of him sailing I think it was a Sunfish.

I would guess he probably did sail it, there is tons of pictures of him sailing all kinds of boats.
