THE ■iAWL PlOr— A\e notice by om Eistern contpiiipoiaiies 

 that 8e%eial yanls are ticmg built foi use on waters, of the Ei ti.rn 

 coast. We have in our local deet seven yachts of this rig, and 

 another will soon be lauuchod. Those who have tried the yawls 

 do not care to try other rigs, which speaks well for their haniiiness 

 and couvouieiice.— .S,wi Francium Olympian. 



KIEK'S H'lEAM YA(5HTd.— As will be seen by our advertising 

 coluums, Mr. -John P. Kirk is prepared to entertain propositions 

 for the construction of yachtf of all classes, Mr. Ku-k has a large 

 yard and ample facilities, and goes into the design of a vessel in 

 detail, so that he is not worlung blindly trusting to " I reckon ehe'U 

 about go down so far," but builds upon tangible data. Among 

 other work Jlr. Kuk has now in frame a steam vacht, 45 ft. long, 

 6 ft. i in. beam and 4 ft. deep for the Yale College crew. She is 

 to he finished handsomely in hard woods, engines of 95 H. P. de- 

 signed by Mr W. H. Derbyshire, graduate of the Philadelphia Poly- 

 techinic College. Great speed has been aimed at, and official 

 trials of the measiu-ed mile will be made about April 1, of which 

 we hope to give re.sulta in detail. 



WANDERER.— Has been sold to Mr. Morgan, and after being 

 converted into a topsail schooner will clear for the West Indies on 

 a prolonged cruise. Sea cruising bids fair to become a fashion; so 

 much the better. 



POUGHICEEP.SIE I. Y. C— The ice on the river was not in'good 

 condition January 15, notwithstanding which a regatta was sailed 

 bv the Poughkeepsie Ice Yacht Club for the silk pennant pre- 

 sented by Mr. Roosevelt. The prize has to be won twice out of 

 three times, and is to be raced for by boats carrying less than 

 Three boats entered, the Gypsie, Fau-y and 

 IS four miles and the Gypsie won. The "Pahy 

 ,nd hauled out of the race. 

 30. Farmer, of Oakland, has about finished a 

 fine little cruising yawl for San Francisco parties. A correspon- 

 dent sends UB the following interesting particulars : She has been 

 named the Fleta. Length over all 27 ft , and 24 ft. on the water 

 line with a beam 9 ft. 4 in.: depth of hold, 3 ft. 4 in. ; di-aft with- 

 out board, 16 ft. ; gaff, 8 ft ; mizzen boom, 12 ft. ; bowsprit outr 

 board, 8 ft. 10 in. ; jib on foot, 14 ft. This little yacht has a deal 

 of dea riee, a roomy cabin with sUding hatch and ports. To save 

 dirt and wear, decks and seats in cockpit have been covered with 

 canvas. Bent oak frame, with keel deadwood, stem, posts and 

 deck beams of Oregon piiie and fir plank. Hull, spars and iron 

 work with two coats of paint, and joiner work is to be delivered to 

 her owner, Mr. C. Cook for !6350, the owner having to supply sails, 

 gear and furnishing, say from -fSO to 875. This will give yon iin 

 idea how cheap we can buUd on the Pacific coast. The new cruis- 

 er will hoist the colors of the S. F. Y. C. and will make a capital 

 single bander.

VIKING -Another big one for the lakes. Mr. F.*H. Scott has 

 sold his schooner Viking to Mi\ .John M. Loomis, of Chicago. She 

 will he overhauled at Greenport, and sailed around to her new 

 hailing port in spring. Vikiug was built from a model bv Van Du- 

 sen for Mr. Mahloii Hands, of New Yolk, in 1H52 bv thePoillons of 

 Brooklva. She is 10 ft. !> m. over all : 86 ft. 4 "in. on load line ; 

 23 ft. 5 in. beam : 8 ft. 2 in. in depth of hold ; 6 ft. o in. di-aft and 

 19 ft draft -nith board She made the passage to England in 

 187-, and in a friendly way was tiled alongside the EngUsh schoon- 

 ers, but could do nothing with them, her fiat floor and quick bilge 

 making her a poor ship to windward in lumpy water. In smooth 

 water she is fairly fast, and m appearance " and quahties a cross 

 between Mohawk and Columbia. 



CANVAS OB CEDABV 



Sdilor Forest and Stream : 



Though I have never carried a boat with a neok-yoke, I can eas- 

 ily see that it is an admirable way, and that with the case of carry- 

 ing that gives them, wooden boats are superior to collapsable 

 boats, provided yon have what "Paddler" mentions in connection 

 with his boat, an open trail. Now, where I have used Coughtry's 

 boat more than anything else is in the western part of North 

 Carolina where an open trail is a rare and pleasing exception. 



It might be possible to carry a wooden boat through some of the 

 thicketf , but an old and experienced laurel thicket would success- 

 fully appose any attempts to get '-on the other side of it." A 

 man can, by crawhng, get through and can drag a Coughtry boat 

 with him. Of course it makes a wot load, but then the explorer 

 must decide between a wet boat or none at all. The unseanvorthy- 

 ness of an Osgood canoe is owing mure to the model than to the 

 materials of which it is built. For proof of the seaworthy quali- 

 ties of the canvas boat I quote the following from Folkard's 

 description of a canvas boat, the " Curragh :" 



"Irish cm-raghs are from fifteen to twenty feet in length, by two 

 and a half or three in breadth -.they are solight that they are car- 

 ried to and fro by the fishermen, from the coast to their cottages, 

 almost daily. But notwithstaudiug their lightness, ag.Hin8t a heavy 

 sea and wind they are said to possess great superiority over boat-s 

 of wood. * * * * 



"These ourraghs are need for fishing in the Atlantic on the iron- 

 bound coast of the west and north of Ii-eland." Canvas Back.
