The Atlantic is a one-design keelboat designed by Starling Burgess in 1928. It is a 30-foot open-cockpit day sailer typically used for day racing, rather than for overnight or ocean races. In the years following its design, fleets were established in several US ports along the eastern seaboard. Today, the Atlantic is raced primarily in Long Island Sound and in Coastal Maine, and boats are distributed among five fleets.

Abstract
This thesis concerns the careers of pirates in the latest stage of that career, as pirates prepared to end their roving of the seas in order to “settle down.” Though pirates are idolized in modern fiction, their ends are often overshadowed by the highlights of their careers. Here, the goal is to find what motivated pirates to engage in a life as outlaws and then at some point choose to cast that life aside. Conclusions on this are drawn from both primary and secondary sources where pirates gave information pertaining to their view of the world and retirement in it, often without realizing it. The thesis explores the interactions pirates had with the governments acting within the Atlantic world and the natives who inhabited it. Lastly, the thesis concludes that sea rovers gained a great deal through piracy, yet to retire they surrendered at least some of what they gained. Of interest, then, is what was lost through what methods of retirement, and what was retained through others.

The Atlantic is a one-design keelboat designed by Starling Burgess in 1928. It is a 30-foot open-cockpit day sailer typically used for day racing, rather than for overnight or ocean races. In the years following its design, fleets were established in several US ports along the eastern seaboard.
Today, the Atlantic is raced primarily in Long Island Sound and in Coastal Maine, and boats are distributed among five fleets,with a total of approximately 50 boats in present use.
History[edit]
In 1928, Starling Burgess, then a well-known naval architect age 50, decided to try to design and establish a one-design sailboat that would be raced in fleets along the eastern seaboard of the United States.[2] Working with German boat yardAbeking & Rasmussen, he designed a prototype which he showed to yacht clubs along the east coast. The initial cost of the boat was $1800, below that of competing boats.[2]:14
In 1930, there were 99 Atlantics, sailing in 13 fleets along Long Island Sound, the south shore of Long Island, Narragansett Bay, and Maine.[2]:13
Three Atlantic sailors went on to win as skippers on America's Cup boats: Briggs Cunningham, Bus Mosbacher, and Bob Bavier.[2]:30
In 1953, the Atlantic Class rules committee approved a rule change that allowed the reconstruction of the plank-on-frame Atlantics using fiberglass.[2]:48 The conversions were to be performedby Cape Cod Shipbuilding.[2]:47 Twenty boats were rebuilt using fiberglass between 1956 and 1958,[2]:51, and since then nearly all existing boats have been converted. In addition, fifty new Atlantics have been built using fiberglass.
The Atlantic fleet remains active; its two largest-ever Nationals (with 41 boats each) were held in 1947 and 2012.[2]:7
In a 1994 review Richard Sherwood wrote, 'the original boats were built of wood during the twenties, and the boat was popular on Long Island Sound, where many famous names in sailing — Cunningham, Mosbacher, Romagna, Bavier, Shields, etc. — raced the boat. Later, the wooden hulls were replaced with FRP, with the original keels, spars, rudder and rigging transferred to the new hulls, Beginning in 1962, the boat was built totally new. A few boats have been modified for cruising and have a small deckhouse, with a Vee berth, a sink, and a head. '[3]
