Ted Kennedy Sailboat?

Just saw a picture of the sailboat Ted Kennedy was sailing yesterday. It looks like a beauty. Schooner, lots of nice woodwork. I did a search but can't find what kind of boat it is. Can someone identify it?

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Nice boat, But I understand that boat cannot hold a straight course and aways falls off to port.

Good for him! If I was faced with something like that, I think that going sailing is exactly the right thing to do.
