First Squadron Run, 



HUNTINGTON BAT TO NEW LONDON, 73 MILES. 



Tuesday, July 30. 



Tuesday morning broke with a fine breeze from S.W., the course to 

 Barrlett's Reef, just outside New London Harbor, being E. by N. ; the 

 start was off Eaton's Point and the finish off New London Light. 



All hands were up early, the start being signaled at 6:40, Queen Mab 

 going over at 6:40:52, followed by the little Norota 3s. later. Club 

 topsails were set with balloonjib topsails. Only 36 yachts started in 

 the race, but a very large fleet got away early without regard- to rac- 

 ing. Before the start Ramona's main throat halliards parted, drop- 

 ping the boom and smashing a skylight, but they were soon repaired, 

 and she sailed a good race with Constellation. Vigilant started on 

 the weather end of the line, with her long jibtopsail set. while De- 

 fender, to leeward, had a ballooner up. Vigilant was the better can- 

 vased in the freshening wind and rising sea, and held the newer boat 

 all day. The conditions were exceptionally favorable and a magnifi- 

 cent race was made, the average speed of the leading boat, Constella- 

 tion, being 13.9 knots; Vigilant's being almost the same. Off Bart- 

 lett's Reef Defender was something over 2m. ahead of Vigilant, but 

 she gave up here and was towed in by the steam yacht Hermione with 

 her steering gear disabled. She claimed to have finished the race, but 

 the official circular called for a finish off New London Light, a few 

 miles further in, where all the yachts were timed. 



The accident to the steering gear was caused by the heating of the 

 sleeve on the main shaft which carried the quadrant pinion and the 

 intermediate gears; the strain caused the main shaft and the sleeve to 

 beat until they bound, so that the whole gear refused to work. The 

 yacht went up the harbor and men from the Morgan Iron Works were 

 busy all night in making repairs, Mr. N. G. Herreshoff being sum- 

 moned from Bristol by telegraph to help. The fleet was timed:

On the run Clara lost her topmast and bowsprit and was towed into 

 Greenport, Norota and Ventura lost some light sails and Montauk 

 took a bad knockdown. A fatal accident happened on the steam 

 yacht Embla; John Griffin, a fireman, stepped from the fire room to 

 the engine room for fresh air, being unwell, and staggered and fell 

 into the crankpit, where he was very badly cut about the head The 

 yacht hurried to New London, where he was transferred to the 

 Memorial Hospital, but he died in the evening. 



Volunteer, with Capt. Aubrey Crocker in command, was at anchor 

 when the fleet arrived. 



Jubilee came into New London in the afternoon with three of her 

 port shrouds gone, after nearly losing her mast. A squall caught her 

 off Race Rock, and the aluminum bronze turnbuckles on three of 

 her four main shrouds on the port side snapped off, the fourth 

 stretching badly, but still holding. The mast was held only by this 

 shroud and the runner; the main halliards were cut and the sail low- 

 ered as quickly as possible. 



The af tenoon was enlivened by a very severe rainstorm. 



Second Squadron Bun. 



NEW LONDON TO NEWPORT— 40 MILES. 



Wednesday, July 31. 

 Wednesday morning was anything but promising; however, the sun 

 came out early with a light S. W. wind, and as the distance was but 40 

 miles, the start was not made until 11:10:00, Queen Mab crossing at 

 11:10:59. A very large fleet started, but most of cue yachts went inside 

 of Fisher's Island; the course for the racing division was from New 

 London Harbor by Race Rock, 4 miles, then E. y 2 N. to Point Judith, 26 

 miles, and then N.E. 10 miles to the Dumplings, off Newport. The 

 presence of Volunteer lent additional interest to the largest class, this 

 being her first appearance under a racing flag as a 90ft. cutter, all of 

 her racing since she was lengthened to 90ft, in 1891 having been done 

 under a schooner rig. Vigilant was unfortunate in splitting from the 

 boom to the second batten about three cloths in from the leach just 

 before she crossed the line. The tear was repaired while under way, 

 though with some difficulty, and she sailed the course. The run was 

 made mainly under spinakers, which were shifted from starboard to 

 port off Point Judith. The wind was light and fluky, favoring the 

 boats inshore. Defender sailed very fast in the light weather. The 

 fleet was timed:

Newport— Goelet Cup Race. 



Friday, Aug. 2. 



It has usually been the case that the Goelet cup race was sailed on 

 the arrival of th« fleet at Newport, but this year the arrangements 

 were such that the fleet, laid over Thursday at anchor, giving more 

 time for preparation for the Rreat race of the year. Nothing was done 

 on Thursday, the races for the Owl and Gamecock colors were set for 

 the afternoon, but were postponed on account of the choppy sea. A 

 meeting of the regatta committee was held, but as Mr. Willard had 

 gone to New York for a day no action was taken on the Vigilant- 

 Defender protest. The Loyal protest against the classification of the 

 committee in the June regatta was taken up, and it was decided to 

 offer a special prize of $200 for a race between Loyal and Neaera to be 

 sailed over the course for the Goelet cup next day. 



Friday was clear and warm, the sky slightly overcast in the early 

 morning and with a light S.W. wind. The start was sat for 10:30 off 

 the Brenton's Reef Lightship. The committee had discussed the ques- 

 tion of a new course, an equilateral triangle, but finally decided to 

 hold to the old courses, the "Block Island" and the "Sow and Pigs." 

 The entries were as follows: 



SCHOONERS, 



Marguerite H. W. Lamb. 



Merlin W. H. Forbes. 



Amorita W. G. Brokaw. 



Neaera H. K. McHarg. 



Mayflower W. A. Gardner. 



Emerald J R. Maxwell. 



Lasca J- E. Brooks. 



Constellation Bayard Thayer. 



Loyal B. F. Sutton. 



Elsemarie J- B. King. 



COTTERS. 



Wasp H. F. and R. L. Lippltt. 



Vigilant 8.J. Gould. 



Defender W. K. Vanderbilt, C. Oliver 



Iselin and E. D. Morgan. 



Queen Mab Percy Chubb. 



Jubilee C J. Paine. 



Volunteer J. Malcolm Forbes. 



Of these, Wasp and Queen Mab did not start. 



The flagship Sylvia anchored off the lightship at 10:50 and set the 

 signals for the Block Island course. The first leg southwest, one- 

 eighth west. 13J<a miles to a mark one mile from Block Island; the sec- 

 ond leg northeast by east, three-quarters east, 18 miles to a mark two 

 miles from West Island Light, and the third leg west by north, one- 

 eighth north, 6J4 miles— 38 miles. 



A wait was made for the tug incharge of Supt. Neils Olsen to get a 

 good start with the markboats, and at 11:20 the first gun was fired. 

 The start for the cutters was at 11:30, Defender crossing but 33s. after 

 the gun, close by the lightship on the north end of the line. Just under 

 I her lee was Volunteer, while Jubilee followed a little astern. Vigilant 

 had come for the line with the others, hut at the last moment hung 

 back, wearing around and starting nearly 4m. after Defender. 



Five minutes later the start for the schooners was given, Neaera 

 crossing first, followed by Amorita, Lasca and Elsemarie. The four 

 cutters crossed on starboard tack, Defender at once going about and 

 standing inshore. Most of the schooners alBO stood inshore, Constel- 

 lation and Merlin alone holding to the eastward. 



The wind was moderate from S.W., the water smooth, and the first 

 leg was a beat with clubtopsails and small jibtopsails set, out to Block 

 Island mark. The cutters very soon dropped all the schooners, and 

 Defender opened out on her class. The order soon became Defender, 

 Vigilant, Jubilee, Volunteer; while the two-stick division was led by 

 Lasca and Emerald. 



At 1:30 the markboat was surrounded by a large fleet of steam 

 yachts, steamers and tugs. Defender came up on starboard tack, if 

 anything overstanding a little. Her spinaker boom was lowered to 

 starboard before she rounded, and the sail was soon run out in stops, 

 being broken out very promptly. Vigilant made her last tack near 

 the mark, but was slow in gathering way. Her crew were very smart 

 with the spinaker, breaking it out as she passed the mark. Jubilee's 

 crew did poor work with the spinaker; the lift was evidently cast off 

 carelessly and the boom fell into the water, only good luck preventing 

 it from breaking. 



The times at the mark were:

Defender 1 40 25 2 04 52 



Vigilant 1 46 29 2 11 57 



JuWlee 1 50 08 2 18 59

Lasca 2 15 00 



Emerald 2 17 00 



Amorita 2 25 00 



Elsemarie, Marguerite and Merlin not timed. 



It was now a run of 18 miles to the West Island mark with a moder- 

 ate S.W. wind and smooth water. Defender gained on Vigilant and 

 Jubilee did also. The times at the West Island mark were: 



Defender 3 44 10 2 30 45 



Vigilant 3 55 45 2 09 16 



Jubilee 3 57 08 2 07 00 



Volunteer 4 14 50 2 17 00 



Defender jibed at the mark and trimmed sheets for the reach home, 

 but before sue had been for two minutes on her new course, her hol- 

 low gaff broke in two places, a big piece falling out of the middle. 

 She was kept on her course under headsails for a time, but finally 

 took a line from a tug. Her main sail and clubt opsail were both torn. 

 This mishap left Vigilant an easy winner, the times being:

Constellation did not finish. 



Vigilant and Emerald Win the Goelet cups, this being the second won 

 by Emerald; and Loyal beats Neaera in the special race. 



Defender was taken in tow by the tug Gaspe and went at once to 

 Bristol, where her new 105ft. boom and a new Herreshoff mainsail to 

 fit it were awaiting her, with a new gaff 64ft. long. These were 

 shipped during the night, and the yacht was towed back to Newport 

 early in the morning, in time for the run to the Vineyard. 



Third Squadron Run. 



NEWPORT TO VINEYARD HAVEN. 



Saturday, Aug, 3. 



Saturday proved to be another pleasant day, bright and sunny, with 

 a good breeze, S.S.W., freshening in Vineyard Sound. The course was 

 from off Brenton's Reef to a finish off West Chop Light, Vineyard 

 Haven, 38 miles. Many of the yachts were under way early, the rac- 

 ing division waiting until 10:40, when the start for the smaller cutters 

 was signaled from the Sylvia, Queen Mab crossingat 10:40:31, followed 

 by Hildegarde, Wasp, Uvira, Katrina and Norota. The schooners 

 were started at 10:45, Lasca leading the way. The big cutters were 

 started at 10:50, with a two-minute limit. Defender went over -very 

 promptly; but Vigilant, though at the line in time, wore and stood 

 back, as though waiting for Volunteer, some distance away. The re- 

 sult was that Vigilant was handicapped 52s and Volunteer 53s. 



While Vigilant carried her No, 1 jibtopsail, Defender and Volunteer 

 carried No. 2. Jubilee was at the line, but ran out to windward before 

 the start, with working topsail set. She did not cross, but started 

 alone about the same time as the others, but some distance to wind- 

 ward. Most of the yachts carried No. 1 or No. 2 jibtopsails, but 

 Ramona was content with nothing less than balloon jibtopsail and 

 balloon maintopmast staysail. She carried them for just a quarter of 

 an nour when the clew of the balloon jibtopsail tore away and the sail 

 parted company with the foot and leach ropes. She was run off her 

 course and the sail taken in. Queen Mab held the lead for a good part 

 of the first hour, aHd then she gave place to Defender. Vigilant took 

 in her big jibtopsail and set a smaller one, which in turn gave place to 

 the baby. The other yachts also shifted to smaller jibtopsails as the 

 Wind increased, only Lasca carrying a No. 1 over the course. The 

 only times taken at the Vineyard Sound Lightship (Sow and Pigs) 



Defender 12 19 00 Vigilant 12 23 00 



Lasca 12 23 00 



The order-was: Defended Vigilant, Lasca, Emerald, Constellation, 

 Alceea, Queen Mab, Katrina, Volunteer, Ariel and Hildegarde. 



With a stronger breeze the fleet ran through Vineyard SouDd to the 

 finish off West. Chop, where the steam yacht Sheerwater was waiting 

 to tame them. The official times were:

 Mab beat Hildegarde 6m. 14s. ; Norota beat Uvira an even 4m., and in 

 the mixed class Katrina beat Wasp 12m. 14s. The race was a per- 

 fectly fair trial, the course and wind being equally favorable to all. 



Sunday was spent idly in harbor, the fleet dressing ship at noon.
