 Gull, Minerva, St. Elmo, Mermaid and Wildcat. 



GREAT HEAD.— A race was sailed on July 14, the winners 

 being E. D. W., Great Scott, Zoe and Modoc, 



LAKE Y. K. A., KINGSTON, JULY 18.-The L. Y. R. A. round 

 was marked by several accidents which spoiled the tirst day's rac- 

 ing at Kingston. Tbe strong wind delayed tne Oswego fleet, so 

 that none of the yachts arrived. The race was started on July 13 

 with the following entries: Second class, Garfield, of Kingston: 

 Cygnet. Of Toronto; Madge, of Rochester. Third class, Iolanthe, 

 Of Belleville; Gerda, of Kingston. Just prior to the start Garfield 

 carried away her bowsprit, disabling her entirely. When the first 

 leg was covered it was found that the buoy bad drifted ashore, 

 so the yachts returned. A new course was marked out, and at 1:30 

 the four started again in a very strong wind, running free. When 

 coming home on'the wind the four were closely bunched, and a' 

 collision occurred between Cygnet and Gerda, the former striking 

 the latter squarely amidships and breaking her boom, tearing her 

 mainsail and cutting the planking through. The steamer Maud 

 took the injured yacht in tow, and she was kept afloat by bailing 

 until the harbor was reached. Madge finished at 4:18 and Iolan- 

 the at 4:28; the latter being protested for not crossing the line at 

 the start. On her way to Kingston Verve met with heavy weather, 

 losing her mast on the night of July 10, drifting for three nights 

 and two days, and being finally towed into Kingston. The 

 damage to Gerda is estimated at £250 to S300. 



A CAPSIZE AT BALTIMORE.— On July 4 the death trap 

 Otto Duker, by courtesy a cabin sloop yacht, capsized in a moder- 

 ate breeze near Baltimore, with a large party of ladies and 

 children on board. Fortunately the U. S. sloop of war Jamestown 

 was near at hand and boats were at once sent to the rescue. 

 Some of the ladies were in the cabin and it was necessary to dive 

 for them. All were taken on board the Jamestown and the boat 

 was righted and bailed out. The Duker is about 42ft. over all, 35ft. 

 l.w.l., lift. 6fn. beam and only 3ft. depth, with a large rig and pav- 

 ing stone for ballast. As yet there, are no yachts about Baltimore, 

 but with the Chesapeake so near yachting should flourish there. 

 Such occurrences as this, however, can but bring discredit on the 

 sport and hinder its development. The usual crop of July cap- 

 sizes is fuUy up to the average; two gentlemen and a lady 

 drowned on July 5 near St. Paul, Minn., from a sailboat; two 

 ladies drowned from a similar craft on July 4 in Lake Massabesic, 

 N. H., with many capsizes about New York, Boston and other 

 places, some terminating fatally but not reported fully. 



AMERICAN Y. C.-The fourth regatta of the American Y. C. 

 will be held on July 21, over the new 80 knot course, from a buoy 

 off the club house, Milton Point. Rye, N. Y., east half north, 

 passing Stratford Shoal Light about half a mile to the southward, 

 and return. Prizes will he the Commodore's cup, the Atalanta 

 challenge cup, three cups under the Emery and one under the 

 Haswell system of allowance, The entries thus far are as fol- 

 lows: Tillie, Commodore W. H. Starbuck; Orient, J. A. Bost- 

 wick; Susquehanna, Joseph Sticknoy; Stranger, George L. Scott; 

 Narwhal, C. H. Osgood; Restless, William M. Singerly; Viola, J. 

 P. Kennedy, and Nereid, F. L. Osgood. 



A CHALLENGE FROM NEW YORK TO BOSTON.— The 

 followiug challenge has been sent to the Boston Herald: I 

 hereby offer to match my boat Lady Glenmore against any boat 

 in Boston harbor from IS to 22ft. sailing length, with time allow- 

 ance according to the HerresbofT tables, the Glenmore being 20ft. 

 6in. long. Boats to sail as follows: Five miles or more to wind- 

 ward and back, cat rig, shifting ballast, no limit to crew. Will 

 match her for from 8500 upward to $1000; $100 to be allowed for 

 expenses, to sail in New York or Boston Harbor. Challenge open 

 until Aug. 10, 1888.— Hugh Little.tohn (Canarsie, L. I., N. Y„ 

 July 14, 1888). 



NEW YORKY. C. CRUISE— Arrangements have been made 

 for a regatta off Martha's Vineyard, for prizes given by the Mar- 

 tha's Vineyard Club, amounting to $1500. The date fixed is Aug. 

 13, the course being from the Sea view House to a stakeboat off 

 Oapogue, thence, passing Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Highlands, to 

 a turning boat near Nobska, and thence returning and finishing 

 near the Seaview House. Arrangements have also been made to 

 supply ice and stores to the yachts at reasonable prices. Mr. 

 Alexander Taylor, Jr. has resigned from the regatta committee. 



A BRITISH YACHT IN AMERICAN WATERS.— Dr. Healy 

 of New Haven, who lately purchased a small steam yacht, the 

 Nautilus, formerly owned by the Maiquis of Lome, in Canada, 

 is in trouble over the refusal of the inspectors to inspect his 

 yacht on the ground that she was an English vessel. The owner 

 has paid §400 duty on his yacht, besides harbor and light dues, 

 but has been obliged to lay her up, as he can get no inspection 

 certificate. 



ALGA AND VIXEN.— A match is reported between the new 

 Burges cutter Alga, built for Mr. Charles Longfellow, and the 

 sloop Vixen, formerly owned in New York by Mr. Lawrence; to 

 be sailed this month at Boston. Mr. Longfellow is still abroad 

 with Fortuna, and will not return before Sept. 1, but Mr. Burgess 

 will race his boat. The course will be 20 miles to windward and 

 return. It is also possible that Fanita may enter, all being 

 nearly of the same length, 45 ft. l.w.l. 



NEW SHARPIES.— Mr. Clapham is now at work on a large 

 sharpie for a New Jersey gentleman who will take her south 

 as soon as she is completed, in October. She will be 57ft. 

 beam, 18 to 20in. draft, with 6ft. headroom under deckbeams. 

 Below there will be two staterooms and four berths in the cabin. 

 The model is the Nonpareil sharpie, but with clipper stem and 

 long counter; to be yawl rigged. Mr. Clapham has an order for 

 a similar craft 45ft. long. 



SOUTHERN Y.C. CRUISE.— The following yachts. started on 

 the annual cruise of the Southern Y. C. on July 7, at 7 P. M.: 

 Stella, Susie B;, Hope, St. John, Frolic, Zoe, Carrie V., A. Courrin. 

 The wiud was very light and the anchorage at Cat Island was not- 

 reached until 12:48 P. M., on July 8, Zoe arriving first and winning 

 the Commodore's prize. The fleet sailed at noon for Louisiana 

 Keys. 



WEST LYNN Y. C— The championship regatta was sailed on 

 July 14, Blanche and Isabel being the winners.

^"No Notice Taken of Anonymous Correspondents. 



J. J. C, Philadelphia.— We will serve you in the matter as re- 

 quested. 



C. A. K., Baton Range, La.— The sneakbox is not suitable for 

 such work as you describe in rough, open waters. A boat with 

 more underwater body and less projecting top would be better. 

 Either the flat-bottomed sharpie or cruiser described in Forest 

 and Stream of Nov. 3 and 10, 1887, would be faster, abler and more 

 comfortable than the ordinary sneakbox of the same over-all 

 length, and would draw no more water.

Among the Many Novelties 



Introduced by us last spring were the 



Dead Finish, Waterproof, Braided Silk Fly Lines, 



FOR SALMON, TROUT AND BLACK BASS. 



These lines have given perfect satisfaction and stood the mo3fc severe tests. They do not crack, chip or become 

 sticky and stiff, but remain soft and pliable. These lines are waterproofed through and through, not merely 

 on the surface. They will not become tender in use or by age. 



Also a new style LANDING SET, made of waterproof braided linen Kite, which prevents the hooks from catching in the meshes. 

 The prices of these nets are only a little in advance of the old style made from twisted thread.
