Below are pictures of President Kennedy, his wife Jackie, and his entourage of secret service agents and friends. They are viewing the Americas Cup races from the Torpedo Deck forward. The Mk 32 torpedo tube launchers had been removed for the President's visit and the Navy also erected a plexiglas "sprayshield" along the forward part of the torpedo deck.
