        I only see one ski for Jackie. Who ski’s in a shirt?

        I couldn't tell if Jackie was on one ski, but if so, definitely props to her too! Not sure about the t-shirt but neither of them is wearing a life vest. That definitely would be different today. She was First Lady at this time!

        Cool vintage shot of the old US Coast Guard 40' motor boat, in the background.
