EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1930s, Marion Barbara Carstairs, better known as Joe or "Betty" to the press, is seen in the aftermath of a thrilling yet perilous racing moment aboard her motor boat, Newg II. The image, published in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News in November 1931, captures the daring spirit and determination of this remarkable woman as she navigates the choppy waters of Southampton during the Detroit News Trophy races. Joe Carstairs, a lesbian British socialite and racing enthusiast, was known for her love of fast boats and masculine attire. In this photograph, she wears a full nautical outfit, complete with a striped sweater, cap, and trousers, embodying the essence of a seasoned sailor. However, the tranquil scene belies the danger that had just unfolded – Newg II had capsized, coming dangerously close to sinking. Despite the potential peril, Joe's focus and resolve are evident as she assesses the situation, no doubt already planning her next move. The photograph serves as a testament to her fearless spirit and unwavering commitment to her passion for motor boating. This evocative image, taken from the extensive archive of the Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans, offers a glimpse into a bygone era of daring exploits and gender-defying individuals. It is a reminder of the captivating stories that lie hidden within historical archives, waiting to be rediscovered and celebrated.
