FOREST AND STREAM. 



[Aug. 8, 1889. 



Comparative Deck Room of 40ft. Yachts. 



extreme of the class, but the case is the same with Tomahawk, 

 Maraquita ami Gorilla: as a class they arc huge, unwieldy brutes, 

 with sa ! l plans out of all proportion to the return in th" way of 

 speed, accommodation or convenience. In comparing the very 

 wide boats with those of moderate or even narrow beam, it must 

 be remembered that while the difference in the breadth of main 

 cabin is greatly in favor of the wide boat, the comparatively 

 fuller lines of the narrower boats give as much or more room in 

 the after cabin and forecastle. 



Directly opposed to the latest developments of our 40ft. class is 

 the corresponding class of 30 raters now coming into use in Eng- 

 land through the influence of the new length and sail area rule. 

 The accompanying plans, lor which we are indebted to Mr. Wat- 

 son, show the arrangement of one of his latest twenties, such as 

 Vreda of last year. The dimensions are: Over all 58ft., l.w.l. 45ft.. 

 beam 10ft, 4in., draft 8ft. 8m., displacement 25 long tons, ballast 

 about 13 ions. The fret board is very low, only 27 m., and as he 

 reduced midship section shows in comparison with those given 

 last week, the boat is small in everj way compared with the for- 

 ties. How she compares with them in aceonimodat'on is shown 

 in the plans; the main cabin is 7ft. 9in. long, with 6ft. 3in. head- 

 room under deck and sufficient breadth for a comfortable sofa 

 locker on each side with a ' olding oerth as shown above. This 

 berth may be pivoted so as to lie close against the side when 

 closed, bul to give room beneath for one to sleep on the sofa when 

 it is open, so that four can be berthed in the main cabin. The 

 floor space is nol so great as in Liris and Chispa, nor is the ex- 

 treme width above the lockers so great, but there is plenty of 

 room for sleeping, dining or lounging. The steerage, lust abaft 

 the main caoin, has a good toikt room to port and two large 

 closets, one for coats and oilers and one for stores, to starboard. 

 The after cabin is as large as in the wide forties, being 7ft. 4in. 

 long with 6ft. 4in. headroom. There are two permanent berths, 

 with a closet at the end of each, a dressing table and mirror 

 against the after bulkhead and drawers below the berths, for- 

 ward there is a separate room for the captain on port side, with 

 icebox and pantries on starboard. 



While the arrangement oi the cabin is practically as good as in 

 the wide boats, that in the forecastle is infinitely better. In the 

 first place, owing to the greater li ngth,tho forecastle proper, with 

 its hammock, cuts, is not crowded quite so close to the steward's 

 department ; in the second place, a separat" room is made for the 

 captain, a very great advantage in preserving discipline, and 

 having a beneficial influence on both the captain and his crew. 

 In the third place the captain's room and adjoining passage are 

 available m racing for a most convenient sail room, the oval 

 hat cn in deck giving easy access to it and keeping the mam cabin 

 clear of sails. This type of boat, the moderate beamed cutler, 

 permits of the most economical arrangement of space that is 

 possible in a yacht, the advantages in the way of fore and aft ac- 

 commodation being far in excess of the lessened breadth in the 

 wings in the mam cabin or a little narrower floor. The breadth 

 of 10ft. is enough, as she will stand straighter on her feet than the 

 wider boats with larger rigs. There is room abaft the after cabin 

 for a large cockpit if df sired, the sail room being fully as largo as 

 in the tony-footers, while the canvas is much less in bulk. The 

 greatest point of difference between her and the American forties 

 is the sail area, onlj 2,660ft. being allowed by the English rule, 

 and as this includes trie ciubropsail, the equivalent area by New 

 York rule would be only about 2,550ft., or even less than Minerva's. 



As to speed, such a yacht would probably be unable to save time 

 in the ordinary weather from the 40ft. class in American waters, 

 being designed under very different conditions, but the same de- 

 Slgn is capable of some modifications in the way of increased sail, 

 which, if we can judge from Minerva, would put it on an equality 

 with the wider boats in point of speed. The cost, always a im- 

 portant point, compares favorably with the wide boats, as a 

 wooden 20 rater can be built in England with hull of oak, elm, 

 mahogany and teak, polished hardwood in cabins, with all lilting 

 and racing outfit for $5,000 to #0 000, or with 30 per cent, added for 

 difference in cost here, about the same as a keel 40 of very ordi- 

 nary wooden construction. 



It" is probable, that an imported 20 rater with these dimensions 

 and so small sail plan might not prove successful here, either in 

 racing or as a popular type of boat, but the great oifferenee in 

 point of sail and power between her and the latest forties point 

 strongly to the direction in which improvement must be looked 

 for. The 20 rater is an evolution from one extreme, the very nar- 

 row cutter, made under certain conditions. Working on this side 

 from the opposite ext. erne of i he very wade keel boat, and under 

 altered rules and conditions, the result would naturally be dif- 

 ferent. A medium between the two extremes, the present design 

 and such forties as Maraquiia, Tomahawk, Liris and Gorilla, 

 would be found in a boat of about 43ft. l.w.l., lift, b-.am, 8ft. draff, 

 and with a sail area of about 3 900ft. Such a yacht should cost no 

 more than the wide forties of the same quality; she could not 

 well heel to a greater angle than some of the latter; she would be 

 a far better and safer sea boat, her accommodations would be 

 greatly superior, the draft would be less by a foot, and it would 

 depend on the skill of her designer as to whether she could win 

 from the rest. 



It is too soon yet to say what the results of the season will be, 

 or to draw any final conclusions, but if the big rigs on Liris and 

 Tomahawk and Gorilla should win, still bigger rigs must be used 

 next year to beat them, if any further extreme is possible. In 

 view of this the experiment ot such a yacht as we have indicated, 

 of less cost and power, and smaller in all ways save length than 

 the present machines, would be a most, valuable one; but unfor- 

 tunately it is not possible under present, conditions. The only 

 resource at present offered to the designer is to take the maximum 

 length allowed him and to build the largest possible boat, regard- 

 less of cost, sea-goiag powers or moderate draft. It may be that 

 Minerva will yet prove that the reverse is possible, that a small 

 boat can be built to win under the present rules, but even if she 

 do, the present tendency backed by custom and prejudice, is to 

 force men into the largest pos.-iblecraf t on a given length rather 

 than into such a moderato boat as she. 



If we were dealing with steam it would be an easy matter to 

 make a man understand that for a given speed the more room he 

 could get for a eei tain expenditure the better boat he would have. 

 Coal bills and repairs to machinery have, a far more direct way of 

 appealing to a man's, pocket than the corresponding expenses due 

 to a »ig sad plan, but the latter are felt just as heavily in the 

 end. The question is precisely the same in both cases, the 

 economic utilization of power, whether in the form of coal or 

 canvas, and the vesstl which gives the best return, not in one 

 item aPne, but in a general average of speed, adaptability, a* - 

 eommodatioo and cost of running, is the best and most worthy of 

 the encouragement of the ciubs. If the length rule in any form 

 will give such a vessel, then it is as good a rule as any; if the 

 present measurement and conditions favor such boats there is no 

 necessity for a change, but there is good reason to doubt whether 

 such is really the case, and whether the whole matter of measure- 

 ment is not in urgent need of a thorough overhauling before any 

 more building is begun in the winter.

 Newport, at the conclusion of the New York cruise, over a 25 mile 

 triangular course, starting from Brenton's Reef Lightship. The 

 entries are: Alice, P. D. Wheatland: Chiquita, A. Henienway; 

 Gorilla, Royal Phelps Carroll; Helen, C. A. Prince; Liris, Messrs. 

 Wetmore, Hoyt and Mather; Maraquita, August Belmont, Jr.;

BEVERLY Y. C. 



THE 149th regatta was sailed at Marblehead on Aug. 3. This 

 was a sweepstakes race and all the first and second class 

 boats were frightened off by Saracen and Swordfish: these f,yo 

 boats were ready to start but having no competitors did not 

 do so. 



The day opened about as disagreeably as possible, a pouring 

 rain with a succession of calms and thunder squalls, but just be- 

 fore the start it cleared off and a good wholesail southerly breeze 

 struck in. 



Only Kathleen, Mosca and Kiowa had formally entered; Dol- 

 phin put in an appearance but as no one wished to start against 

 her in that breeze, Kiowa's owner asked Mr. Robbins to start 

 Wanda instead, which was done; Wanda being 21ft. l.w.l. is in 

 second class, but her sail measurements are so small that Kiowa 

 allows her. Wraith came up at the last moment and started, 

 but forgot to enter. 



The start was a pretty one, the boats going off with wind well 

 on starboard quarter. Kathleen got a second or two the best of 

 the start, then Kiowa, Wanda nnd Mosca with Wraith a trifle 

 astern. Kiowa drew ahead a trifle with Wanda close on to her; 

 Kathleen luffed acrosB their stems and took some of their wind. 

 Selman's was passed in » bunch, Kiowa a trifle ahead; here 

 Wanda got her wind an I closed up, the two boats running neck 

 and neck for awhile, with the others so close that one photograph 

 would have covered them all. 



Kiowa kept off a little to get a clear wind and slowly pulled out 

 a trifling lead, jibing round No. 3 ahead. Wauda second with 

 the others in a bunch. 



Prom 3 to Curtis wind was ou port quarter, Kiowa increasing 

 her lead a little. At Curtis Point they jibed again and had a 

 beam wind to Bowdilcb, whence they had a beat home. There 

 was a heavy sea rolling m and it was a good test of the boats. 

 Kiowa gained faster than before, while Wanda dropped the jib 

 and mainsails, of whom Kathleen led Mos a a trifle Once 'on 

 the wind Mosca got in irons and lost time, while Kiowa gained 

 more rapidly, outpointing aud outfooting ,her completely and 

 seeming to have the race in hand, i t was now breezing up and a 

 heavy head sea was met. The course required boats to go to lee- 

 ward of red buoy 8: Kiowa was pointing to westward of it, but 

 bore off a little, going to leeward. Kathleen, however, who had 

 stood on further than the others before Lacking nnd was to wind- 

 ward of Kiowa's wake, did not, bear off, but passed to windward 

 of buoy. The others did not fetch it. Had Kai hleen kept off she 

 would have lost more time i han she beat Wraith by. • 



Soon after passing buoy Kiowa's headstay parted with aloud 

 report, the masthead sagging aft and to leeward. This spoilt the 

 set of her sail; she was unable to lav as good a course as before, 

 and it was a question if her mast would not go. as it was buck- 

 ling badly. 



Wanda and Kathleen at. once began to gain on her, and her 

 chances looked very poor. At the month of the harbor Wanda 

 had closed up till she was dead astern and inside her allowance; 

 inside harbor, however, the smoother water allowed Kiowa to 

 trim sheets flatter, and gave her some chance to outpoint Wanda, 

 which she did to such purpose that she was able to luff over lino 

 just clear of leeward stakeboat, while Wanda had to make a 

 short tack. Summary as follows:

It was an exciting race, and a triumph for the cats over the 

 jib and mainsails. Wraith protested Kathleen for cutting Buoy 

 6. Judges ruled that prize go to Mosca on account of Wraith's 

 neglect to enter properly, but Mr. Poster refused to take it, so 

 prize goes to Wraith. 



Judges: E. M. Parker, Bancroft C. Davis. X, Y. Z. 



[Hi the report last week of the regatta of July 37 the times in 

 fourth class were too great by one hour.] 



INDIAN HARBOR Y. C, AUGUST 3. 



THE first annual regatta of the Indian Harbor Y. C. was sailed 

 off Greenwich, Conn., last Saturday. This club is a new one, 

 and is made up principally of members residing in Greenwich for 

 the summer. On account of the valuable prizes offered and the 

 $25 sweepstakes in addit ion, a brilliant array of entries were ob- 

 tained. At 3 o'clock the steamer Vulcan, Capt. Lenox, with the 

 judges, C. E. Jenkins, George E. Gartlaud and William J. Jones, 

 and the regatta committee, Richard Outwatcr, H. O. Asten and 

 P. B. Jones, on board, took up her position at the starting line, a 

 line drawn between two stakeboats anchored about half a mile 

 east by south of Rockport Point. The course was Thence to the 

 red spar buoy off the west end of Great Captain's Islands to a 

 stakeboat anchored about one-quarter of a mile south of Cap- 

 tain's Island to the black spar buoy off the east end of Little 

 Captain's Island, to the starting line, to be sailed over twice, a 

 distance of ten miles. The race was under the rules of the N. Y. 

 Yacht Racing Association, the Herreshoff time allowances being 

 used. 



The preparatory signal was given from judges' steamer at 2:14 

 P. M., and the signal to start at 2:19. All crossed the line within 

 the stipulated time of five minutes except Jennie Willis and Dot 

 which were handicapped 30 seconds and 20 seconds respectively' 

 the handicap time being 2:24 P. M. At the start and throughout 

 the race a southwest wind was blowing of moderato strength, 

 with the ebb tide. Shortly after the start Tattler took the lead 

 and was never headed, winning easily. Prom the start to the 

 first turn was a dead beat to windward: the rest of the course 

 was a lift sheet and off the w ind. Tattler did the best work- to 

 windward in the third class, and Ida K.in the fourth class. With 

 lifted sheets most of the other competitors seem to hold their 

 own. The following is the summary of the race:

and Zelda. The prize for fastest corrected time was given to 

 Tattler. Shortly after the race a match was made between the 

 Tattler and Edna for 81.000. 



HULL Y. C, LADIES' DAY.-Rainy weather, little wind and 

 a collision helped to spoil the ladies' day of the Hull Y. C. on 

 July 31. At 3 P. M. the rain fell steadily, but at 5 o'clock it 

 stopped, but there was no wind. Trouoadour, Com. Whitten's 

 flagship, was in collision with a collier, losing her main boom. In 

 the evening a dinner and hop took place at the club house. 



RIVERSIDE Y. C— The regatta of the mosquito boats of the 

 new Riverside Y. C, at the mouth of the Miamuj River, on Aug, 

 3, was hardly more than a drift. Twelve yachts started, the win- 

 ner being D. B. Hill, with Ripple second.
