 3 2V!iO minute per hour, and.:?? 4 * 8 = .003904 per minute.

 miles. 



In the application of the first, formula to attain V. or speed of ves- 

 sel, it is usual t» add a co-efficient to the numerator, which represei 

 the relative .rapacity of performance. 



In the case under consideration it is not th 

 quired, but the elements that produce it, and tin 

 representation of the competitive capacity of tin 

 finer the model the more effective the instrument 

 propeller or side-wbeels. and the less the friction 

 aud the wet surface of the bull, the greater Is tho 

 other words, the more effective the result attain 

 effieieut is peculiar toeach and everj 1. It : 



known, and consequently, except in a general . . 

 types and like proportions of vessels, Ii is useless. 



In order then that this subject may be fully considered, and as 

 equitable an estimate of powers aud a standard of allowance of time 

 between competing yachts may oe arrived at, as may be practicable, 

 I suggest that the cliib, at as early a day as convenient, appoint a com- 

 mittee to consider and report upon the subject.
