 produced nothing equal, much less superior, to the good old 



schooner fashioned In Mich i apaxable inauncrby thouncrring 



eye of the elder Steers. The America hud two faults : she nas 

 them yet. She is <dow. cxceedingl)' slow in stays, and shots crank. 

 There is little doubt but thai a raking post with a little more 

 r..cker and weighi intbe keel would much improve her in these 

 respects. Itoth points have been developed In Eniflish practice 

 with great success, and it is time that, in our keels at least, the 

 plumb post disappeared and we. In turn, took a lesson front our 

 cousins in this, as we have already done in respect, to iron and 

 even lead on the keel. On these and other points, however, we 

 feel eonlldent that the works of Mr. Kemp will create sound opin- 

 ions In their favor, and soon wo will see the perfect modern 

 American yacht appear as a keel boat, well cut up forward, drag, 

 rocker and raking post, less sheer, ample freeboard, low ballast, 

 good honest depth of body, with the attendant moderation in 

 beam, and less hoist and handier cut to rig. In the East we are 

 rapidly working thai way. and in the East* Mr. Kemp's books 

 have sold two l.o one 1o what Ihey have anywhere else. Ya.-hts 

 built without drag and with a deep fore-foot, though common 

 enou-.'h a few voars ago. are now out of date, and no builder 

 would think of following such antiquated stylo auy longer, how- 

 ever much it may represent the liigho«t attainments of the

theories are -deduced directly from the lessons of practice, in 



and " Vacht and Iloat Sailing,' wc believe we are helping to bring 

 into prominence th" best thought of the age on the subject of 

 naval science, and the readiness with which the lessons therein 

 taught are bearing fruit is sufficient to show that the principles 

 will stand the test of trial, and that "smart" as our natural 

 talent mavbe.it will produce still higher results ir we do not 

 shut our eves to the experience of thousands abn ad, but conde- 

 scend like 'liboral men to learn from them whal has escaped us

 large amount Of aadittonaJ Information collected since the ap- 

 pcaranconf the lir.-t. The preliminary chapters offer un excel- 

 lent insight into the relations .Of weight and displacement, the 

 i.alnncii.g of sni!. the action Df the rudder, and especially do wo 

 commend the Chapter on sail-carrying power and speed, which 

 will be rend with interest hv the si.iidc.nt. and from which ho can 

 learn more in an hour than by a life spent among the fungi and 

 barnacles of the trade. The material relative to practical con- 

 siinciion offers much that is new to us on this side of the Atlantic.
