A CHALLENGE FOR GENESTA'S CUPS. 



IT has been a matter of res-ret among yachtsmen that no chance 

 would be afforded this season to measure Puritan indirectly with 

 Irex by means of Genesta, as Sir Richard Sutton did not propose to 

 fit out the latter this year. Now, however, the news comes that Mr, 

 John Jameson has challenged for both the Bren ton's Beef and Cape 

 May Cups, and that Sir Richard Sutton has accepted, so that Genesta 

 will fit out at once to meet Irex. The two have never raced together 

 since the alterations of 1884-5 were made, and as Irex has proved 

 herself the best of the British fleet last year, while Genesta was mug- 

 hunting across the Atlantic, another race was necessary to settle the 

 relative claims of the two. Neither, we believe, has been materially 

 altered from last year's trim, and by their performauce together we 

 may form some idea of what Irex would have done in Genesta's 

 place with Puritan, while with Galatea and Irex together in other 

 matches we shall soon know which is the best of the three. 



GREAT HEAD Y. C. OPEN REGATTA.— The first open sweep- 

 stakes of the Great Head Y. C. was sailed successfully on June 5. 41

 J. W. Hildreth and Chas. A. Rice. In the evening a dance was given 

 in the club house. 



ATLANTIC Y. C, LADIES' DAY, JUNE 5.— Saturday last was the 

 ladies' dav of the Atlantic Y. C , and in spite of the interruption to 

 travel caused by the "tie-up" of the horse cars, a large number of 

 ladles found their way to Bay Ridge in the afternoon. Though the 

 allowance of one lady for every ten feet of length is not a very liberal 

 one there was some trouble in manning all the fleet, as many pre- 

 ferred to remain ashore on the bluff an J watch the race. The course 

 was triangular, from the club house to and around a stakeboat off 

 Tompkinsville. thence to and around another stakeboat off Oyster 

 Island and back to the club house, about eight miles. At 3:40 P .XL. 

 the larger yachts were started and at 3:45 the small ones, all going 

 away on port tack, reaching across the ebb tide with a southeast 

 wind for Tompkinsville, Atlantic was with the fleet, trying her big 

 iib for the first time. She stood down into the Narrows and so lost 

 some. time. The second leg was tree up to Oyster Island, thence a 

 beat home over the third leg. The summary is as follows:

LARCHMONT Y. C. PENNANT RACES, JUNE 1.— The first race of 

 the season for the third class yachts was sailed on June 5 on the 

 occasion of the Larehtnont Y. C. pennant regatta, resulting in a de- 

 cided victory for Clara, the narrowest of the narrow cutters. Of 

 course some allowance must be made for a new boat in the case of 

 her chief competitor, Cinderella, but the latter was fairly beaten in 

 smooth water and moderate wind. Her $300 bottom of silver leaf 

 did not not save Tbistle from a bad beating, while Atblon's beam, 

 lead and depth was nowhere alongside of the little Scotch lassie 

 who promises before the season closes to prove that she is just as 

 good as she is pretty. The day opened with a calm, but at noon a 

 light breeze came in from the south'ard, and at 12:10:45 the first sig- 

 nal was given. The little cat Punch was first over at 12:11:32, and off 

 on port tack. WorkiDg long and short legs, the fleet reached the 

 weather mark, Execution light, with Thistle ahead. The times were: 



Thistle 12 55 41 Punch 1 05 28 



Clara 12 56 33 Nymph 1 07 57 



Athlon 12 57 20 Cruiser 1 08 19 



Cinderella 12 67 26 Yolande 1 10 14 



Nahli 1 01 16 Brahmin 1 11 20 



Fairy 1 02 24 



Sheets were slacked for Matinnicock, where the four large boats 

 set spinnakers to starboard for Captain's Island, the others jibing and 

 heading for Larchmont whence they rounded Execution again and 

 finished at the starting line. Times were not taken at all the inter- 

 mediate points, but Clara, sailed by Mr. Lee. owner of the Oriva, 

 turned first at Matinnicock, with Thistle, Athlon and Cinderella in 

 order. At Captain's Island the times were: 



Thistle 2 48 44 Athlon 2 51 15 



Clara 2 49 06 Cinderella... i 2 58 15 



The latter boat jibed twice and was in trouble with her spin- 

 naker, which was badly handled ; all the others jibed at the mark. 

 Clara worked to windward in a business like manner, going ahead 

 into the wind now coming fresher from S. W., while Thistle failed to 

 hold her own ;to windward, and Cinderella lost time by setting, 

 taking in, and again setting the jibtopsail. No times were taken at 

 Execution. The last leg was made under spinnakers; the full times 

 were:

HUDSON RIVER Y. C. OPEN REGATTA. JUNE 7.— The Hud- 

 son River Y. C. opened the season on Monday with a very suc- 

 cessful union regatta, having full entries and a good breeze 

 all day. Five of the six classes sailed from the club house, off Seventy- 

 fourth street, N. R., to Yonkers and back, the smallest boats turning 

 at Spuyten Duyvil. The wind was from the south, and the flood tide 

 was running during the greater part of the race. There were 24 

 starters and only one capsize, that being at the float before the race, 

 when the Willie, with no one on board, turned over. The fuU sum- 

 mary is as follows:

THETIS. 



NOW that the centerboard boat with a heavy lead keel has become 

 an accomplished fact and promises to play an important part in 

 American yachting, it is interesting to look back a couple of years to 

 the first large boat of this type, the Thetis. This yacht was designed 

 by her owner, Mr. Henry Bryant, Eastern Y. O, and built under his 

 direction by W. B. Smith at South Boston, in 1884, making her first 

 appearance that year late in the season. As a racer she has never 

 come up to her owner's expectations, but this is partly due to her being 

 raced both last year and before without a regular racing crew aboard. 

 The main end in view was to secure an able and seaworthy cruising 

 boat, to be a home for the owner, and in this he has been successful, 

 as she is in commission early and late about' the coast. The elements 

 and dimensions are: 



Length over all 71ft. 9in. 



Length waterline 64ft. 



Beam extreme 19ft. 



Ratio of beam to length 296 



Draft extreme 8ft. 3in. 



Area load water plane 773 lsq. ft. 



Displacement 66.16 short tons 



Displacement per inch at load line 1.84 short toDs. 



Lead keei 21.18 short tons. 



Total ballast 25 tons. 



Wetted surface l,260sq ft. 



Area of centerboard I60sq. ft. 



Fore side of seem to— 



Midship section. 36ft. 



C. G. loadwater plane 35.44ft. 



Center of lateral resistance 35.84ft. 



Genter of buoyancy 35.1ft. 



Center of effort 33.20ft 



Center of buoyancy below waterline ... .2 13ft. 



Area lower sills 3.873sq. ft. 



Ratio of sail area to wetted surface 8.098 



Area mainsail 2,550sq. ft. 



Area jib 725sq. ft. 



Area staysail 599sq. ft. 



Area topsail 500sq. ft. 



Mast, deck to hounds 54ft. 



Masthead 7ft. 



Topmast, fid to hounds 32ft. 



Boom 61ft. 



Bowsprit, outboard 2? ft. 



Spinnaker boom. 57ft. 



The Thetis is very strongly built, her keel, of Southern oak, being 

 28in. square at midships ana 50ft. long, her stem and sternpost being 

 also of white oak. Her frames are of yellow-bark oak, sided 4in., 

 moulded 4 and 7in., spaced 18in. Forward of mast they are siDgle, in 

 one length each, while abaft this they are double, 14 on each side, 

 being in one piece from keel to planksheer. Abreast the trunk the 

 heels are dove-tailed and wedged into the keel. The clamps are of 

 yellow pine I2x3in., and the shelves of the same, 18x3in., all in single 

 lengths. The planksheer and topstreak, of 2%in. oak, are also in 

 whole lengths, as are the garboards and broadstreaks, also of oak. 

 The planking is of 2in. yellow pine, in long lengths. The bilge keel- 

 sons are of yellow pine, 5x4in., and the deck beams are of hackma- 

 tack of proper shape, also 5x4in. The ceiling is of %in. pine. The 

 fasteBiugs are of treenails and composition, with %in. copper through 

 bolts and washers at each butt. 



The interior is handsomely finished in pine and quartered oak, the 

 woodwork being designed by Mr, Edgar G. Curtin, architect. The 

 cabin is lift. 6in. long, with captain's and steward's rooms on each 

 side of companion. Forward is the owner's room, 12ft. long, with sofa, 

 desk, fireplace and bathtub. On the pore side of trunk is a stateroom, 

 w. c. pantry and passageway, while forward of the owner's room is 

 a sail room, with berth for mate. Seven men are berthed in the 

 galley, but there is room for ten. The ice-box is under the pantry 

 floor and the chains under galley and sail room floors. The water 

 tarks. 1 forward and 3 aft, hold 400 gallons. 



Thetis is rigged in modern shape bet ween sloop and cutter, and has 

 Bailed both with single jib and double head rig. On her advent in 

 New York walers last year, she carried a single jib with a club on 

 the foot, which has since been discarded for a jib and staysail. 



NEW JERSEY Y. C— The opening sail of the New Jersey Y. C. 

 was held on May 31. but owing to light winds it was merely a drift. 

 A start was made from the club house at about 10 A. M„ by the fol-

Messrs. Everson & Reed, and Emily M., L. Alces. The honors were 

 about equally divided in their sail down io Coney Island, reached 

 about 2 o'clock. All arrived back at the club house late in the eve- 

 ning tired and hungry. The sloop Wayward, Com. W. H. Dilworth, 

 started Saturday afternoon for a short cruise down the bay. Com. 

 Dilworth baa as guests Mr. Fred Beltz, Mr Wm. Letts and Mr. George 

 Gartland. Saturday evening was spent lying off Coney Island. Early 

 Sunday morning sail was made and the Atlantic Highlands were 

 reached at 7 A. M.. where Mr. Letls went ashore (the latter gentle- 

 man having a summer residence there) An anchorage was made 

 off the steamboat dock at the Hook at 9 A. M., where several yachts, 

 including steam yacht Falcon, were found. Com. Dilworth was 

 joined by Vice-Com. Ogden in the Duplex, Sunday was spent quietly 

 at anchor. On Monday an early start was had, when an effort was 

 made to get up the Bay to meet the Atlantic fleet, but there being no 

 wind anchor was dropped off Buoy 8, and lines got out for fishing. 

 The Atlantic Y. C. fleet arrived at the Spit about 2 o'clock, the Way- 

 ward accompanying them up, and although her kites were pot set, 

 she did very well with some of the crack craft of the Atlantic Y . C. 

 Owing to lack of wind the club house of the New Jersey Club was not 

 reached until 6:30 A. M. Tuesdav morning, an anchorage having been 

 made off Bay Ridge on Mondav night. Entries are rapidly coming m 

 for the open regatta of the New Jersey Club, which will be held on 

 June 14, as published in last week's Forest and Stream. Mr. Philip 

 Ellsworth's design, Mr. Newberry Lawton's Arab, will make her 

 debut. Several catamarans have entered, and among the other 

 entries are Mr. Prague's Crocodde. The entries close next Monday, 

 and may be made at 563 Greenwich street, to Com. W. H. Dilworth; 

 at 11 Wall street, to Mr. George E. Gartland, or to H. F. Ogden, at the 

 club house, feot of Tenth street, Hoboken. 



KNICKERBOCKER Y. C. REGATTA, JUNE 5.-The postponed 

 race of the Knickerbocker Y, C, contrary to the usual rule, 

 was a success on Saturday last, as the race was sailed in a 

 good southeast breeze, making fast time over the 20 mile course 

 around the Gangway Buoy and back. The course gave only about 

 four miles of windward work, the rest being run under spinnakers or 

 iibtopsails, which cut down the chances of the cutter hurf, but even 

 at this work she made a very creditable showing. Lizzie R. man- 

 aged to sustain the prestige of her 'family by tumbling over and 

 spilling her crew into the drink, but all were safely rescued. Her 

 owner was picked up and completed his voyage on the rival boat, 

 Ananda. An oyster sloop aided in righting the wreck, and the 

 launch Yeda towed her in. The summary is as follows:
