FOREST AND STREAM. 



[June 26, 1890. 



of Tuesday. In one way or another she ghosts away from the fleet 

 in light weather in a style that makes it evident that luck alone is 

 not responsible for her success. She passed Buoy 10 at 2:00:45, with 

 Tomahawk a good 10 minutes astern and the rest still further in 

 the rear, the times being: 



Minerva 2 09 45 Florida.. 2 57 SO 



Tomahawk 2 42 00 Maraquita 3 03 45 



Katrina 2 44 42 Clara 3 04 00 



The first half of the rape, from Buoy 15 to the two lightships, 

 was a drift, Kairina and Shamrock sailing apart at times, hut 

 finally turning the Sandy Hook Lightship hut 18s. apart, the times 

 here being: 



Shamrock 4 4 4 00 Whileaway 4 49 28 



Katrina 4 44 IS Florida. 4 55 15 



Clara 4 17 15 



Minerva turned the Scotland at 3:31:55, the others heing far 

 astern. 



The breeze freshened considerably in the afternoon, and the 

 latter half of the race gave some good sailing between Shamrock 

 and Katrina; as for the forties, Minerva was so far ahead that the 

 Burgess boats were able to ignore her entirely, and have a very 

 exciting little sub-race between themselves. Shamrock led all 

 the way home until near the finish, when by a little better handl- 

 ing Katrina headed her, leading over the line by 2J^ni., and win- 

 ning by lm. 383. corrected time. Tomahawk was the first of the 

 Burgess forties, being 35m. astern of Minerva. Choctaw and 

 Maraquita had a very close brush for last place, Choctaw Anally 

 winning it. The full times were:

SEAWANHAKA CORINTHIAN Y. C. ANNUAL, JUNE 21.. 



In the matter of starters the Seavvanhaka C. Y. C. was still 

 worse off than the New York, only seven yachts crossing the line, 

 in spite of aa fine a racing day as could be asked for over the New 

 Yorlc course, a strong working breeze from S.E. giviug a better 

 trial to windward than has been seen yet this year. Katrina was 

 kept out through a death in her owner's family, while Gracie, in 

 spite of some hard work, was still on the ways. On Friday extra 

 launching ways were laid under her, but she did not move, not 

 going off finally until Monday. Clara sailed alone in her class, 

 while the lorties were limited to Minerva, Maraquita and Liris, 

 the latter just down from Piepgrass's, where, some of her lead had 

 been taken off. Kathloen was promised a classmate in Volusia, 

 but the latter did not show up, so the little white cutter sailed 

 over. Minerva was sailed by Mr. A. B. Alley, Maraquita by Mr. 

 Burgess and Liris by Mr. Love joy. As Mr. Maxwell had no'eom- 

 peti tor for Shamrock, Mr. Duncan started the cutter Huron, a 

 cruiser that is some 7ft. too short for the class. The usual con- 

 ditions were in force, no clubtopsails, Corinthian helmsmen, and 

 only one paid hand on the forties and thirties. 



The tide was still flooding at 11 A. M. when the first whistle was 

 blown, the start, the usual time one, being given at 11:10. Sham- 

 rock crossed at 11:13:29 and Huron at 11:1^:34, both carrying work- 

 ing topsails. The three forties came for the line together, but 

 With Maraquita ahead and to windward of Minerva, while Liris 

 was astern and on the extreme lee end of the line. They were 

 timed very evenly together, Maraquita lltl6:31, Minerva 11:16:41, 

 and Liris 11:16:56; but Liris was in a worse position than the times 

 show, being obliged to tack on the line. All carried working top- 

 sails and whole tower canvas. Kathleen housed her topmast and 

 took mat ters easy, as she could afford to do. Clara sailed over 

 the line at 11:18:37, and was soon in among the forties. 



Mariquita held her lead, the others working in under the Owl's 

 Head snore to catch the first of the ebb tide. The positions were 

 but little changed when the fleet beat out of the Narrows, 

 Mariquita had a good lead, Minerva came next, then Clara, and 

 Liris last. Just outside Fort Wadswortb, Liris went on port tack, 

 with Minerva after her ou her weather, when Clara, coming out 

 on starboard tack, put Minerva about. Minerva went on star- 

 board tack, in close company with Clara, and before the larger 

 boat had drawn clear of her she lost ground perceptibly, Mari- 

 quita held down along the West Bank, but both Liris and Min- 

 erva stood out to the eastward, toward the middle. Here the 

 wind came heavier, heading them at times. Strange to say, Mari- 

 quita, carrying working topsail, stood up in a way she has never 

 done before, while Minerva sent down her working topsail, and 

 Liris, alter heeling heavily in the puffs, was compelled to do the 

 same. Before Buoy 10 was reached tlie wind let up, and both set 

 topsails. Maraquita was very well sailed, and was evidently able 

 to hold the others, while Minerva was dropping Liris. The times 

 at Buoy 10 were: 



Shamrock 1 00 36 Clara 1 18 49 



Huron I 08 14 Minerva 1 19 13 



Maraquita 1 18 SO Liris 1 21 17 



The foriies tacked close around the buoy, Clara standing by on 

 the port tack for some distance in order to keep clear, as she had 

 not left them yet. From the start Maraquita had gained 43a. on 

 Mmerva and 2m, 32s. on Liris. 



On the reach to the point of the Hook the positions changed 

 hut little, but beyond this there waa a little sea. Maraquita was 

 kept going and stood the eea better than Minerva, but gained 



nothing to speak of on the latter between the Hook and the Scot- 

 land. Liris, after starting the race with sheets eased off in the 

 first windward work, was now pinned in until she stood still and 

 jumped about in. the sea, losing very badly on this part of the 

 course. Before this Huron had hauled dowri her number and was 

 following the race as a spectator. Shamrock and Clara were off 

 for the Sandy Hook Lightship, where they were not timed, and 

 Kathleen had turned Buoy 5 and gone home. The forties Were 

 timed at the Scotland as follows: 



Maraquita 1 13 12 Liris 2 25 16 



Mmerva 2 17 01 



Once around, ail set spinaker to port and ran for Buoy 5, Liris 

 being a slight gainer in this stern chase. Coming in by Buoy 10, 

 with working topsail and small jibtopsail set, Maraquita made a 

 careless jibe, the backstay was not set up quickly, and the top- 

 mast went a little distauce above the cap. The jibtopsail was 

 taken in and the working topsail left aloft, all that portion below 

 the level of the gaff end still doing its work. In spite of this loss 

 Minerva gained but little, and, as she had been within her allow- 

 ance of Maraquita all day, the result was not changed by the acci- 

 dent. Maraquita finished at 3:59:42 and Minerva at 4:00:08, thus 

 Maraquita covered the course in 55s. less than Minerva, the latter 

 heating her by 2m. 28s. Mr. Burgess turned an "elapsed" hand- 

 spring, but Minerva lakes the "■corrected"' prizes, the $100 cup for 

 the class, the Leland Corinthian challenge cup, and Mr. Alley wins 

 'he handsome prize offered by Com. Center for the helmsman of 

 the yacht making the best time over the Scotland Lightship 

 course. The full times were:

SEAWANHAKA SPECIAL SWEEPSTAKES- JUNE 23. 



The third Seawanhaka Corinthian race was a repetition of the 

 first of the series, ou June 5, except that it was a sweepstake?, §25 

 entrance for the forties, with the Carroll cup, presented last year 

 by Mr. Royal Phelps Carroll an t won by his yacht Gorilla, being 

 re-clonated to the club. The race was also open to the thirties, $15 

 entrance, and a special cup offered by Mr. W hitlock, but Kathleen 

 was the only entry, and she did not care for another sail-over. 

 The forties eutered were Minerva, Choctaw, Liris, Tomahawk 

 and Maraquita, but the latter pair did not start. Full profes- 

 sional crews were allowed and also clubtopsails, the boats to be 

 steered by amateurs. Mr. A. Bryan Alley had charge of Minerva, 

 Mr. Lovejoy of Liris and Mr. Edmund Fish of Choctaw. 



The diy was cloudy and overcast, but with a moderate S.E. 

 wind in the morning, the tide turning ebb about an hour after the 

 start. The much-abused "one-gun" start was tried again, this 

 lime, with success, as the yachts were all ready. Minerva took a 

 tug at Bay Ridge, Choctaw sailed down about 10 o'clock and Liris 

 when part way down accepted a line from the judges" boat. All 

 carried small jibtopsails, Mmerva and Liris also carrying second 

 clubtopsails. while Choctaw had a jibheader set. After a little 

 maneuvering for the start, Minerva cut under the stern of the 

 judges' boat, anchored to the eastward of Craven Shoal Buoy, on 

 port tack, just after the gun, with the bowsprit of Liris over her 

 boom end, while Choctaw was about a length clear of Liris astern. 

 Minerva had the weather berth, Liris being in her wake. 



At the start Choctaw fell off until in a few minutes she was to 

 leeward of the others and close to the West Bank, when Mr. Fish 

 made a tack, going across Liiis' stern, and well out into mid 

 cbannel, where he found rather more wind. Liris held Minerva 

 for a time, but the little Scotchman at last began to draw away, 

 ■and as her gain became apparent Liris was put about, on star- 

 board tack, for mid chaunel, when down near the head of the 

 Swash. When she and Choctaw came together Liris was well 

 clear, crossing the other's hows. Minerva followed Liris, plant- 

 ing herself on the weather bow each time they tacked, Liris 

 finally getting away from under iier by a little skillful work. 

 They heat on down to buoy 10 in this order, the times at the buoy 

 being: 



Minerva 12 23 12 Choctaw 12 27 11 



Liris 12 24 29 



Sheets were eased a trifle for the next couple of miles to buoy 5, 

 Minerva, laking in her jib-topsail as soon as she struck the swells 

 off the Hook, gaining a little on the others. The times at the buoy 

 were: 



Minerva 12 40 04 Choctaw 12 45 01 



Liris 12 41 27 



When outside the Hook the yachts met a long easy swell that 

 laid the bowsprits level with the water at times and showed plenty 

 of forefoot as well, while the wind fell much lighter. Liris tacked 

 close In under the beach, working down along the shore, while 

 Minerva followed her, tack by tack, keeping just outside of her. 

 Choctaw steered a course of her own, holding far over to the east- 

 ward on one long starboard tack and setting her club topsail when 

 part way out. The roll of the sea and the light wind favored 

 Minerva greatly alongside the beamy boats, and she made much 

 of her gain here. She turned the Scotland with a good lead and 

 set spinaker to port. Choctaw made her last tack well to the 

 eastward of the mark, while Liris was coming from the other 

 direction, on starboard tack. When the two met Liris had the 

 right of way, and Cuoctaw had to tack under her bows, taking 

 third place. The times at the, Scotland Lightship were: 



Minerva 1 38 12 Choctaw .. 1 45 57 



Liris 1 44 40 



All ran for home with spinakers to port, Choctaw drawing up 

 and passing Liris before Buoy 5 was reached. At the turn Liris 

 luffed across her wake and hailed for room at the buoy, which 

 Choctaw was compelled to give, going back to third place. As 

 soon as spmakers were in Mr. Fish luffed her out on Liris's 

 weather, but the black boat met her, the two standing well in to- 

 ward the point of Sandy Hook. This game was repeated several 

 times, Choctaw failing to force a passage, but. before Buoy 10 was 

 reached she had got a little lead of Liris, only to lose it again 

 wheu they jibed at the turn, Liris being less than a hundred yards 

 ahead of her. By this time Minerva was far up the bay and near 

 the finish. The times were: 



Minerva 2 38 17 Choctaw 2 46 17 



Liris 2 46 17 



As soon as Buoy 10 was passed Choctaw began the luffing, trim- 

 ming sheets for a rush out on Liris's weather, and then flowing 

 them to pay off through her lee when the first maneuver failed. 

 This was repeated some six or eight times, until the pair were over 

 near the East Bank, and a couple of miles off their course. Each 

 attempt to weather Lins failed, leaving Citioctaw 50yds. astern. 

 When well up the Bay Choctaw, hiving her tpinaker boom on 

 end, paid off quickly and made a rusn for Liris's lee, but the other 

 was watching, and though her boom was on deck it was swung 

 out and the sail set but little later than Choctaw's. They ran off 

 on their true course, wing and wing, for a few minutes, Choctaw 

 gaining nothing, so she started the lu>Bng again. After some 

 further monkeying with spinaker booms well forward she placed 

 herself on Liris's weather, Dlauketing her, and then ran ahead 

 until Liris was in her wake. The fun now began again, Liris 

 doing the luffing this time, and finally planting herself to wind- 

 ward of Choctaw. From this position she soon ran ahead, cross- 

 ing the line by a couple of lengths but losing on allowance. In 

 the course, of this curious monkeying, which much increased 

 Minerva's lead, each of the boats had sailed completely around 

 the other, their positions at the finish being precisely the same as 

 at Buoy 10. The full times were:

As far as wind and weatner were concerned the race was a per- 

 fectly fair one, and the boats were all well sailed. Minerva wins 

 $125 and the Carroll cup. She now holds the Leland cud, subject 

 to challenge from Liris, Mariquita, Tomahawk, Moccasin, Nymph, 

 Gorilla and Banshee, all of wnich are enrolled m the Seawanhaka 

 O. Y. C As far as the club was concerned, the race was a com- 

 plete success, though the few entries were rather discouraging. 

 The race, like that of Saturday, was managed by the race com- 

 mittee, Messrs. W. B. Simonds, W. A. Haines, M. M. Rowland, 

 W. C. Kerr and J. L. Ward. 



MINERVA AND CHISPA.-A match race has been arranged 

 between Minerva and Chispa, to be sailed on the Bay on Saturday 

 next. Captain Joe Ellsworth will be with Com. Lawton in Chispa 

 and a lively race may be looked for. 



NO RACE FQR THE SEVENTIES— The rumor of a match to 

 be sailed soon between Katrina, Shamrock, Gracie and Titania is 

 incorrect, as the four will not meet until ;the New York cruise. 



MOCCASIN.— Mr. Morgan's new 40, lately launched at Piep- 

 grass's, had a trial trip on Tuesday, 



BEVERLY Y. C, JUNE 17. 



THE 157th regatta, first open sweepstakes, was sailed at Monu- 

 ment Beach, on Tuesday, in a good thrpe reef souths ester. 

 The club was favored with a perfect day, an excellent entry and 

 a very exciting race. The preparatorv gun was fired exactly on 

 time and in thirty seconds the old Mattie led off the first eia3s. 

 closely followed by champion Climax; five minutes later the 

 champion Mist led off the second class, followed within a minute 

 by Wildcat, Mollie, Superior, Widgeon and Gymnote. 



Climax. Mollie and Gymnote carrying three reefs, the others 

 two; course for these classes was a beat to Bird Island, a short 

 reach to Wings Neck and a run home, 11 miles. 



Mattie sailed wonderfully, and to the surprise of every one held 

 her own with Climax, while Mollie, Wildcat and Mist were, fight- 

 ine hard in third class. 



At 1:15 third class was started, the class par excellence of the 

 day. The entries were the champion Eina, built by Hanley, the 

 '89 champion Daisy and 5 n°w twenties, built to beat Eina, Etta 

 and Hermione. built by Jenney , Cay use and Puzzle by Hanley, and 

 Ada by Eben Holmes. 



Cayuse got off with the lead, followed very closely bv Hermione, 

 Etta, Eina, Ada and Puzzle, all carrying three reefs, their course 

 being 8 miles; a beat to No. 3, a shnrt reach to Abial's Ledge, a 

 ruu home, then hack to No. 3 and return. 



They were followed by Rip and Edith in fourth class, Rip heing 

 Mr. Jefferson's new boat, just finished by Dunn, and the prettiest 

 tittle bo"at on the bay, looking very like Kiowa, but broader and 

 shallower. 



Their course was twice round No. 3 and return, 6^ miles. Rip 

 had an allowance of 15s., but started 27s. ahead. She had not 

 wind enough, and although sailing faster did not point with 

 Edith, at the end of first round she was 40-. ahead; but, ou second 

 round, as it breezed up, she sailed beautifully and spun out a lead 

 of lm. 38s. 



Cayuse sailed like a witch and led next, boat in her class at end 

 of first round by 8tn., Etta followed, with Eina 3s. behind, both 

 having shaken out a reef, but Etna had gained on her and ran 

 through her lee as they rounded the judges' boat. Puzzle was 

 c)o*e up, with Ada and Hermione together some few minutes 

 astern. On second round Cayuse held her own on all hut Etta, 

 whose larger sail told, hut it was Cayuse's race. Eina and Puzzle 

 made one of the closest and best finishes ever seen in the bay. 



In first class Mattie came home with a good lead, surprising 

 every one; she was carrying single reef only and going like a 

 steamboat. 



Mollie led second clas^, however, which was also a surprise, as 

 it was thought too misty weather, but Mollie's present skipper is 

 hard to beat. Mist was second with Wildcat, with a cracked 

 tiller, and partially steered by an oar close to her and well within 

 her time. Next came Superior swinging the whole of the Crawl's 

 big sail. It was too much for her, as they could not keep her off 

 on her course, and were forced into a jibe on the line, getting 

 goose-winged and tearing sail from boom to gaff. The race was a 

 great success and result shows that the racing this year will be 

 very lively. After i ace every one reefed down close before going 

 home. All the races at Monument Beach this year will be sailed 

 under the '■ i 3 W.L.-f-beam rule. Result as follows:
