FOREST AND STREAM. 



[JtJLT 2, 1891. 



THE DEBUFANTES-GtoD'anrt, Smuggler, Mah, aiip-peway, Jes 

 So.— There is -material for careful study in the new Tioats of 1891 

 which have cnme to the front in the course of the spring races in 

 New To rlf and Boston First of course is Gloriana, fast, power- 

 ful and successful; but ugly beyond question. In her beam, draff, 

 lead and canvas have proved the prominent factors, comMned by 

 more than common skill Next in size is the little 25ft. cor- 

 rected length racer, Smuggler, a modern and moderate keel boat 

 with a purely racing rig, th« jib and mainsail, with small sails 

 for her length. In the races thus lar sailed she has shown that 

 the modern cutter hull with lead keel can race successfully with 

 the old centeiboard open boats. Coincident with Herreshoff'a 

 triumphs in New York comes the news of a little flyer from the 

 same hands, a skimming dish of the lightest and most elaborate 

 build, that has beat boats of local renown, from 8 to 4£t. longer 

 than she. It is no great surprise that the very original Mr. 

 Clapham does not propose to be left out in this exhibition of nov- 

 elties that constitute the spring opening, and he has in fact 

 turned up with a new "Bauneer," the Chippewa, which did so 

 well on June 33 as to attract almost as much attention from her 

 speed as her shape. On the same day there came otit in the Pa- 

 vonia Y. C. regatta, her first race, another small flyer, which 

 made a record by the remarkable way in which she beat the seven 

 competing boats in her class; the Jes So, a 16ft. skimming dish 

 with spars of incredible dimensions. A more dissimilar lot of 

 boats could hardly be picked, and yet each promises to make a 

 high record in her class during the season. 



LENGTH OVEE ALL.-While the length on load waterline is 

 likely to remain the most important of a yacht's dimensions, the 

 fashionable clipper stems and long counters have made the length 

 on deck, or length over all, a matter of general interest to yachts- 

 men, and this dimension now invariably accompanies the others 

 in describing a yaclit. As now given, however, it is devoid of any 

 exact meaning, the measurement being taken in hstlf a dozen dif- 

 ferent ways by the various rtil >s, none of which tell what a yachts- 

 man wishes to know. The deck or over alllengtli haslong formed 

 a factor in the Custom House rules of the United States and Great 

 Britain, but the point;s to which the mfiasurement is taken are 

 very loosely designated, and differ, as slated, in the var)(j?is rules. 

 That commonly used in this country is taken from the inside of 

 tlie planking or plating, and givfS no idea of the exterior length 

 of the vessel. The most desirable measurement for all the purposes 

 of the yaclitsman is from the extreme fore side of the stem head' 

 including the figurehead or scroll if there be one, to the after edge 

 of the plMuksheer at the center of the stern. This measurement 

 shows the excess of the deck over the waterline, and is the same 

 whether the yacht is built of wood or iron, which is not the case 

 with the present measurements. It wouli be a good thing if the 

 clubs would discard entirely the present length over all which ap- 

 pears in each club book, and place in its stead a table of lengths 

 taken between these definite points, the stem head and the center 

 of the planksheer at its cxti-eme after point. 



STOP THE GLORIANA— We all remember the plaintive cry 

 which went up from Boston just two years since for something to 

 ''stop the Minerva," and Glorlana's psrformauoes within the 

 week have been brilliant enough to give cause for a similar 

 appeal. Mineola was very quickly disposed of. Sayonara per- 

 haps promises better, though rea.Uy little has baen seen of her 

 yet. Prom these two, however, it is safe to conclude that neither 

 Oweene, nor llderim if raced, can stand long before the Bristol 

 flyer. This narrows the field down to three boats, the Burgess 

 centerboarder Beatrice, the Paine Alborak, and the Fife Barbara. 

 Before Gloriana is called on to start with either it is quite possible 

 that the question may be narrowed down to one of the three. 

 The meeting between' her and the best of these boats will prove a 

 battle royal such as no contest for the America's Cup has ever 

 called forth. 



RACES ON LONG ISLAND SOUND - It is probable that one 

 of the large clubs whose June regattas have been a marked fea- 

 ture of yachting on New York Bay has sailed its last regnlar race 

 there. With the new club houae in use at Oyster Bay by next 

 sprii g, the race of the Seawanhaka C. Y. C. wilt be transferred to 

 Long Island Sound, making one less race in the Bay and one more 

 in the steadily increasing number of Sound races. The programme 

 even niw is an extensive one; June 80, Larchmont special, 46ft' 

 class; .Inly 2, Seawanhaka special, Oyster Bay; 4, Larchmont an- 

 nual, Douglaston annual; 0, American annual; 7, New Rochelle 

 annual; 8, New Haven annual; 11, Riverside annual. All of these 

 are open events, besides which are the.steam races of July 10 and 

 18, and the Cherry Diamond Y. C. race of July 25. 



COMMENTS ON THE NEW CLASS.-The new 48£t. class, 

 who.ee existence promises to be equally brief and brilliant, has 

 called forth some curious comments from the yachtsmen who 

 have watched the New York races. The class, barring Gloriana, 

 has been likened to a lot of Christmas chickens whose heads were 

 off before each was fairly out of the coop. The Tribune quotes the 

 following famous couplet, which seems to fit the case very neatly: 



"Since I vfa,a so soon done for, 

 I wonder what I was begun for." 



Mr. Biyard Thayer is credited with the classic remark that when 

 his new yacht started down the Bay in the Corintliian regatta, 

 her first race, her name way Sayonara, but when she came home 

 her name was '-mud." 



WHO DID IT?— At one time during the winter there were 

 several prospective claimants for the honor of suggesting and 

 starting the new class, but in view of the developments thus far 

 it seems probable that the claim will not be pressed, and that no 

 one will care to face the owners of a large number of beaten boats^ 

 So far as any added knowledge is concerned, there is nothing to 

 be learned from the new class that could not have been demon- 

 strated fully as well in the 40£t. class, with Gossoon and Minerva 

 and such new boats as would have been built to beat them. The 

 cost of the same experiment in the 48ft. class will probably be 25 

 per cent, greater than in the 40ft., while the larger boats, when 

 condemned as racers, will be less useful as cruisers than a 40, in 

 prop'irtion to the added draft. 



A FAIR TRADE.— A funny yam is flying a,bout the Upper Bay 

 in connection with the race of Clara and Anaconda in the Marine 

 and Field regatta. Anacmda was on hand, with Capt. Ellsworth 

 to steer her as on the previous day, but Mr. Prague proposed to Mr. 

 Alley, of Clara, to sail without clubtopsails. To this proposition 

 Mr. Alley would not agree, but finally consented on condition that 

 Capt. Joe should not steer Anaconda. Mr. Prague agreed to this, 

 which, by the way, was placing a rather poor estimate on Capt. 

 Ellsworth's BkiU, and the race was sailed without clubtopsails 

 before it was discovered that Clara bad come do\»o from Bay 

 Ridge la the morniag witbout her topsail yards. 



A JUNE GALE.— The weather on Friday night and S^turday of 

 last week was something almost without parallel in .June. All 

 about New York, the Sound and the Hudson, the day was fair 

 and bright, but with a veritable gale of wind blowing from the 

 northwest, kicking up seas that did considerable damage to piers 

 and docks, while a number of races were entirely stopped, among 

 them being the regattas of the Corinthian Mosquito Fleet, at 

 Larchmont, and the Corinthian Navy, at New Rochelle. 



THE SINKING OF THE AMELTA.-The exR.minatiou of Thos. 

 Walsh, pilot of the tugboat F. W. Devoe, which ran into and 

 sank the sloop yacltt Amelia in the North River, offllOth street, 

 on the night of June 14, was begun before Justice Divver, in the 

 Harlem Police Court, on June 26, but was postponed until Tues- 

 day. Very damaging charges are made by the crew of the yacht. 



THE OCEAN DORY RACE.— After several delays, the final 

 start of the two dories, Sea Serpent, Capt. J. W. Lawlor, and 

 Mermaid. Capt. W. A. Andrews, was made on June 5, at 6:30 

 P.M., from Ocean Pier, Crescent Beach, near Boston, both of the 

 men being reported as in poor condition for such a trip. Their 

 destination is Mullion Cove, Land's End, England. 



URIS.— Though relegated to the ranks of the cruisers, Liris has 

 been ahout the Bay during race week, starting whenever neces. 

 Fary to make a race in her class, and doing some very good sailing. 

 Her appearance has been greatly improved by the higner bul- 

 warks, the excessive sheer aft beltig decreased to a very pleasing 

 sweep. ; 



EASTERN Y. C. ANNUAL, JUNE 29. 



IT is not the fault of the regitti committee of the Eistern Y. C. 

 that the races thus far have proved anythina: but successful. 

 The committee was at work during the winter, and special meas- 

 ures were devised and put in operation to promote racing in the 

 face of the prevailing a Iverse conditions. Mac!! was expected 

 from the race on Mondas% the annual regatt^a of the club, but like 

 the late regattas in New York ttie result was a disappointment. 

 But four schooners siari-ecl, only one new 48 was ready, and she in 

 poor form, and the oO-footers made ihe only interesting class. 

 Alborak and Oweene were at Marolehead with Barbara, bur, one 

 had broken a spreader, the second parted her bobstay. and the third 

 was out of trim, so the cltt"8 dwindled down to Beatrix, Thelma, 

 and Gossoon, 40-footer. 



The courses were from Half- Way Rock to the Whistling buoy, 

 off Eastern Point, thence arouad E. Y. C. Buoy, thence around a 

 mark off Nahant, and home, 32 miles, for all above 30fi., the latter 

 class going directly home after turning the club mark, making a 

 triangular course of 22J^ miles. 



Tne start was made aL 11 A. M. with a moderate N.E. wind and 

 lumpy sea. Most of thp fleec covered the first Ipg in one long lea:, 

 the order at the whistler being: Beatrix, Gossoon, Thelma, 

 OEnone, Mildred, Fancy, Mayflower, Triton, Hawk, Merlin, Sa- 

 adin, Mignm, Haroinger. 



Tne next leg was before the wind, but after carrying spinakers 

 for a couple of miles the wind sbifted to southwest, malting a beat 

 to the E. y. C. Buoy, where the times were: 



Beatrix 3 03 24 Mildred 3 45 37 



Gossoon 3 18 05 Merlin '.3 51 18 



Thplma 3 24 01 Triton i 06 24

CE'ione 3 34 21 Harbinger 4 33 45 



Fancy 3 46 07 Migaon 4 32 50 



The 30-£ooters ran home from here under spinakers, the others 

 reaching in a light breeze for Niibant, being necalmed for a time 

 near the Nahant Buoy. When the wind came it was very light 

 southeast, but toward evening a strong northeast breeze sprung 

 up, the fleet beating home just within the time limit. The times 

 were:

Mayflower, CEnone, Goss ion and Pancy win flrst prizes and 

 Mildred second. Gossoon wins Puritan cup and Fancy the sweep- 

 stakes postponed from June 19. Merlin, Triton, Wayward, Saladin 

 and Miguon withdrew. The regatta committee included Messrs. 

 Wm. S. Eaton. Jr., R. D. Sears, P. T. Ja'clison, Jr., A. N. Rantoul 

 and H. H. Bucii.

 the third boat. No third prize will be given unless five ooats start 

 in a class. As the race is to be sailed over the courses of the 

 Larchmont Y. C. it will be governed by the racing rules and time 

 allovv.ances of that club (except as modified by the special con- 

 ditions of the sweepstakes). 



The club has ofliered a solid gold cup, valued at S500, for thre 46f !. 

 class, upon the following conditions: 



1. All races for this cup shall be sailed in New York or Newport 

 waters.

TUGBOATS AND YACHTS. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



It has been said a man can be a sailor and yet a gentleman, and 

 it is quite possible also that the gentleman is the best sailor. In 

 fact this has been so freq.nently demonstrated by acts of manly 

 conrtecies that the possibility is hardened down to a fixed fa^'t. 

 Young Tate, for instance, in the last Reedy Island race unhesitat- 

 ingly gave up his chances of winning to help Commodore Dressier. 

 That gentleman in turn thanked the youngster and bade him 

 continue in the race, as a steam tug near by would assist him. 

 This was done for an exorbitmt money equivalent. The differ- 

 ence between the young gentlemanlv yachtsman and the philan- 

 thropic captain of the trig is very marked. 



Some years ago the writer and his "man" (a gentleman) cap- 

 sized a 23ft. open cat while approaching the Delaware Breakwater, 

 and drifted out to sea on her bottom. An "Eastern oil jug" 

 bound in took us on board and immediately demanded $200 tor 

 saving our lives. While willing to pay .$100 for my "companion,'' 

 I preferred to he put back on the bottom of my upturned boat, 

 and my "mate" preferred my company to that of the humane 

 captain of the schooner, and we were both set adrift. Two hours 

 after the "take off," pilot boat Gen. Pike came alongside, righted 

 the boat, freed her of water, and towed us under the "stone pile." 

 Well I remember the almost savage look of that grand old pilot 

 when I offered to pay him for "services rendered." He was a 

 rough and weather-beaten oH pilot, and a gentlemsn. God bless 

 h's dear old soul, now at rest in the great unknown future for big- 

 hearted men. R. G. W. 



Captain West, of the tugboat Irwin, may think he is en- 

 titled to a few of those beautiful medals which the Govern- 

 ment has struck off to be conferred upon brave and gener- 

 ous life-savers, but he will probably be a long time without 

 any. Nor will the Humanitarian Society just yet hunt him 

 out and hold him up to the admiring gaze of the public. On 

 Tuesday last he rescued four men from a capsized yacht a few 

 miles below Lincoln Park, but it was only after he had taken 

 advantage of the helpless condition of the yachtsmen and had 

 driven a hard bargain with them. On that day seven open yachts 

 started on a race from Cooper's Point to Reedy Island and return. 

 The wind was heavy and puffy, and a very heavy sea was running. 

 Commodore Dressler'a yacht, the Ethel, in diving throusth the 

 waves, half filled with watei', and was finally capsized by a par- 

 ticularly hard squall halt a mile from shore. The tujboat Irwin, 

 which was steaming slowly down the river, was signaled hy the 

 men who could barely hold on to the bottom of their boat. "What 

 do you want?" asked Captain West. "We would like you to tow 

 us to shore," wa^ .the reply. "What's in it?" "Whatever you 

 think is rignt." "I'll take you for $5." The price was deemed 

 very steep and the tug started away, but returned, and after 

 what appeared to be another hour's deliy, consented to cast the 

 Ethel a line for $3. Even then Captain West Insisted txpon having 

 the cash before landing the b"at, clearly intimating that he would 

 cast her adrift unless payment was made. Of course Commoriore 

 Dressier, who was one of the thoroughly soaked yachtsmen, did 

 not hesitate to pay the amount. The yacht was then placed on a 

 mud flat, and the yachtsmen were permitted to jump into deep 

 water and deeper mud and left to care for themselves and their 

 boat the best tney could. Captain West of the tugboat Irwin is 

 hardly entitled to a medal for bravery and generosity in 8:tving 

 life as yet.— PhiladelpMa Call, June 18. 



AMERICAN MODEL Y. C. 



Editw Forest and Stream: 



At a regular meeting of the American Model Y. C, held at the 

 residence of Mr. G. W. Townly, considerable business was trans- 

 acted, an important motion being made by F. Nichols and sec- 

 onded by J. Sheridan that a special race be sailed on th« Fourtu 

 of July after the windward races have been sailed. Tue third 

 class yachts to sail to windward and return over a course of fa 

 mile. If this plan is carried out it will be the best race of the 

 day. as it will bring out the best all-round points of the yachts. 



It may seem impracticable tor model yachts to sail down the 

 wind, but it is accomplished by an automatic tiller controlled by 

 the mainsail, this contrivance being used by nearly all of tbe 

 th'rd class yachts, it keeping the yacht before the winr). In fact, 

 it acts as nearly like a skipper at the tiller can be, and it Is sim- 

 plicity itself. 



The English model yachts use a weighted rudder, one for wind- 

 ward work, one for reaching and down the wind, causing a loss of 

 time in changing rudders. In the windward work of the Ameri- 

 can Club the tiller is not used, the yachts being so well balanced in 

 relation to centers of effort and lateral resistance that it is not 

 necessary, and down the wind it is only necessary lo slack off' 

 mainsheet, another sheet having the necessary length to take 

 effect on tiller, thus jamming rudder to leeward at a sufficient 

 angle to keep the yacht off the wind. 



After the regular business of the club, Mr. Fisher offered a cup 

 for tbe third class yachts, subject to donor's restrictions, to ba 

 sailed for over a triangular course on any Saturday afternoon 

 designated by him. This race will require considerable skill. 



The club now have a tank the dimensions of which are 7ft. 

 X30in.x80in., with a thin wire stretched across one end so 

 that when the tank is fuil a yacht placed in it will displace her 

 weight of water, causing the water to flow over, retaining it on a 

 level with wire, so that a T-square slid along a rule placed on the 

 side of lank, an accurate measurement of tbe length of yacht on 

 l.w.l. can be had. 



The races on the Fourth of July will be started at 10:30 A. M.
