Published annually in the late spring, The Newport Harbor Guide serves the maritime community of Newport, Rhode Island, and is published for the benefit of the Seamen's Church Institute. Over the past 14 years, the guide has grown from a small one color pamphlet to a 56 page, full-color magazine with International circulation of 20,000.

From the Editor:

In appreciation of his longstanding support and commitment to the Seamen's Church Institute, the publishers wish to dedicate this issue of The Newport Harbor Guide to Henry H. "Harry" Anderson, Jr.

Anderson has spent 70 years racing, organizing and volunteering in the sailing community. He sailed at his alma mater, Yale University, served in the U.S. Army in World War II, and tried out for the 1960 Olympics in the Finn class. He has raced his own boats to numerous awards and was involved with America's Cup races from 1958 until just recently, serving as head of the Race Committee.

Anderson was head of the United States Yacht Racing Union, the predecessor to US Sailing. He is involved with the American Sail Training Association and the Museum of Yachting, is a former commodore of the New York and Seawanhaka Corinthian Yacht Clubs, and was vice president of the International Yacht Racing Union.

A member of the Seamen's Church Insititue Board of Directors, Anderson is currently spearheading the Institute's Capital Campaign.
