Boston City Regatta. 



BOSTON HARBOR. 



Tuesday, July 4. 



The annual open regatta of the city of Boston was sailed as usual 

 on July 4 in a moderate westerly breeze of sufficient force at all times

 Point was a fine one. The courses were: 



For first and second classes: From judges' steamer down West way, 

 leaving Thompson and Rainsford islands on starboard, Long and 

 Greorge's island and Point Allerton buoy 3 on port, and back through 

 the Narrows, leaving Fort Warren, Gallup's isla.nd and Nix's Mate 

 bell buoy oii port, buoy 6, Lower Middle, on port, buoy 7, Castle 

 island, on port, to flagboat anchored off Marine Park pier, leaving it 

 on port, passing between judges' steamer and iiagboat; 13 miles. 



For thii'd, fourth and special (21ft.) classes: From starting line, 

 leaving Old Harbor buoy No. 4, Dorchester bay, on port, Black buoy 

 No. 1 (nearly opposite) on port, Castle island buoy No. 7 on starboard,

 Bertram, F. O. Vegelahn, C. J. Rushton, T. D. Rice, Harry Hutchin- 

 son, James Otis Fallon, Ambrose A. Martin. 



The number of amateur designs among the winners is quite worthy 

 of note. Swordflsh was designed by John B. Paine, Ustane, Tantrum 

 and Exfle by T. J. Small, and HUadee by his brother, S. N. Small. 



Strange to say, out of so large a fleet there were no protests, and 

 only one mishap, the capsizing of Ideal at the start. A special class 

 for fin-keels of over 28ft. was on the programme but had no entries. 

 Handsel being the only one elegible except the 46ft. (3armita. 



son 20-rater Vreda made up the largest class, only Zelma and Dinah 

 being in the next. The com'se was a triangle of four mile sides, 24 

 miles for the larger yachts and 12 miles for 25ft. and I8ft. classes. The 

 day was perfectly clear and sky bright, with the lake as smooth as a 

 table, the wind being moderate from N. W. Vreda, saUed by Mr. Jar- 

 vis, was about 2m. astern at the end of the first round, but finally won 

 easilly. One of the buoys had been missing and a skifC anchored in 

 its place, most of the yachts turning it in the absence of the usual 

 buoy. When the 40-f ooters finished the first round they reported that 

 they had not found the buoy, and Dinah gave up, but Zelma, on learn- 

 ing the change, completed the second round. The tvM times were:

Iiake T, R. A., Fii-st Regatta, Rochester Y. C. 



CHASLOTTB— LAKE ONTARIO. 



Tuesday, JuJy U. 



The programme of the Lake Y. R. A. round of 1893 is shorter and 

 lless interesting than usual, and promises a smaller fleet and less good 

 racing. The start was made at Charlotte, N. Y., the port of Rochester 

 and the station of the Rochester Y. C. on July 4, the fleet gomg next 

 to Hamilton, where the regatta of the Royal Hamilton Y. C. was set 

 for July 8, and then continuing on to Toronto on July 10. where the 

 fleet will probably disband. The assembly at Charlotte, on Jidy 3 

 was quite small, Yama and other noted boats being absent. Cinder- 

 ella did not start, and the old New York sloop Onward with the Wat 



American Model Y. C. 



BROOKLYN— prospect PARK. 



Tuesday, July U- 



It is very discouraging, to say the least, that the American Model 

 Y. C. did not this time make a better showing than last year. The 

 yachts being very slow to come to the line, were debarred to a certain 

 extent from competing; then again the excuse was the wind was too 

 fickle, it being N.W., drawing to the westward in the afternoon. A 

 northwest wind on this lake is a great draw-back to good sailing, and 

 will always be. The only yacht to start in the second class was Comet, 

 going over the course once, thereby having a hollow victory, her time 

 being for the mile 11m. 45s. 



The first class, called next, only three yachts starting in first heat, 

 Marguerite, Neola and Ohyiesa, the latter withdrawing after going 

 one-third of a mUe. Marguerite faUed to round the M na'le stake 

 and Neola won the heat. In the second heat Neola took the lead. 

 Marguerite soon after starting carried away her steering gear, putting 

 her out of race. Neola finished and won. The third class showed up 

 a little stronger, making quite an agreeable change from the previous 

 events, six yachts starting, Ampere winning from Star and Mignon in 

 the second heat by Im. 04s., and in the thire heat from Star by 2m. 18s. :

The Royal No via Scotia Yacht Squadron. 



Though practically isolated from the fellow clubs of the United 

 States and Canada, the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron, of Halifax, 

 N. S., has kept up a prosperous existence for some fifteen years, and 

 is now in a flourishing condition, with a fleet of thirtj' odd yachts, and 

 an active membership of 250. The club is noted for its hospitality to 

 visiting yachtsmen, and the honorary fist contains the names of Lieut. 

 Henn, Com. Colt and other foreign visitors. Last year the club safied

Shrewsbury Y. C. First Annual Regatta. 



RED BANK — SHREWSBURY RIVER. 



Tuesday, July U. 



The first annual regatta of the Shrewsbury Y.C., was sailed on July 

 4 off the new club house at Red Bank, N. J., and was the most success- 

 ful ever sailed on the Shrewsbury River, both as to number and qual- 

 ity of entries. 



Last fall several gentlemen got together, including Mr. John P. 

 James of Brooklyn, Superintendent Byrnes of New York, Mr. Henry 

 C. Miner, the theatrical manager, and Clinton B. James, the owner of 

 the raging cat Undine, and tormed the Shrewsbury Yacht Club. A 

 piece of land lOOf t. on the river by 1,000ft. was purchased on an enu- 

 nence where a fine view could be had, withui half a mile of Red Bank, 

 at a cost of $8,000. Ground was broken in February of this year and 

 there has just been completed at a cost of some S5,000 a house 85ft. 

 front by 50ft. deep, three stories in height. The lower story contains 

 two bowling alleys, biUiard room, kitchen, toilet rooms and shower 

 bath. The first story wiU be used for the dining room and steward's 

 department. The second story wiU be used forabaUroom; thei-e is 

 also a large ladies' room on this floor. On the northeast corner there 

 is a large observatorj% where a fine view can be had both up and down 

 the river. A long dock over 100ft, long has been built in front of the 

 club house. With the possible exception of the Larchmont and Sea- 

 wanhaka club nouses tliis is the largest yacht club house around New 

 York. In addition to the annual regatta this was the opening of the 

 club house, the colors being thrown to the breeze at 8 A. M. During 

 the day a band of music entertained about 500 people, the guests of 

 the club, who witnessed the race from the broad verandas of the club 

 house. 



The race was announced to start at 10 A. M. promptly, and the pre- 

 paratory signal was given 35 minutes later by a gun from the judges' 

 boat, and at 10:40 the starting gun was fired. The day previous the 

 courses were marked out by red flags on stakes numbered from 1 to 

 5. Classes A, B, C and D, sailed the foUowlng course: From an imag-

inary line between a red flag stake and the judges' boat anchored off 

 club house to and around flag stake No. 1, at Guion's Point, leaving 

 same on starboard; thence to flag stake No. 3. in Boyd's Cove, leaving 

 same on port; thence to flag stake No. 3, off Brown's Dock, leaving it 

 on starboard; thence to flag stake No, 4, off Fair Haven dock, leaving 

 it on port; thence to flag stake No. 5, at the head of the flats, leaving 

 it on port: thence back to No, 4, leaving it on starboard, thence to 

 No. 3, leaving it on port, thence to No. 2, leaving it on starboai-d; 

 thence to No. 1, leaving it on port; thence between judges' boat and 

 red flag flnish; 10 miles. 



Class E: Starting same as other classes and turning stakes Nos. 1 

 and 3, thence to a blue flag stake at mouth of McClees Creek, leaving 

 it to port; thence back over same course, turning judges' boat to 

 starboard and repeat, finishing between judges' boat and red flag; 10' 

 miles. 



At the start the wind wfis fresh and squally from N.W. and con- 

 tinued so dm-ing the race, though the water was smooth. 



Much interest was centered in the race in Class C between Jintzy,. 

 a Riddle boat from the South Shrewsbury, belonging to Fred Oakes,. 

 and TwUight, a Blills boat, belonging to H. B. Duryea, at present om 

 Navahoe. Jintzy was sailed by her buUder, while Jim MiUis, brother- 

 of the buUder, sailed Twilight, 



In Class D Mr, Fred Oakes's Enigma was pitted against John M.. 

 Sawyer's Arrow, that sailed her maiden race, having been built last 

 season by WaUin & Gorman, This race was robbed of much of its 

 interest through the carrymg away of the hook of the throat halliard 

 block. Five minutes was lost making repairs, the Enigma finally win - 

 ning by Im. 14s.

Beverly Y. C. First Buzzards Bay Championship. 



MONUMENT BEACH— BUZZARDS BAY. 



Saturday, July 1. 

 The igethrace of the Beverly Y. C, first Buzzards Bay champion- 

 ship, was sailed on July 1, and in spite of the fact that two other faces- 

 close by drew off several boats was a great success. The race started 

 in a fair W.S.W. breeze, which increased till aU the third class were- 

 forced to reef. 



The second class race over a lOJ^-mile course was very close. Gym- 

 note took the lead but Anonyma ran her coming home and a first-rate • 

 lulling match ensued, Gymnote crossing the line one second ahead andl 

 winning a leg for the pennant, but losing first prize on aUowance by 

 five seconds, whUe Mist was only twenty-five seconds astern of her. 

 The new boats Ulala and Agawam did much better than on June 17, 

 and the fifth boat was only 2m. 58s. behind Gymnote. 



In the third class Nobska proved a flyer; she did not point quite as 

 high as the old boats, but went through the water faster than any 20- 

 footer ever did before in Buzzards Bay. Puzzle broke down whUe do- 

 ing weU. 



Nobska is a new boat, with very long overhangs, rather narrow, 

 light forward, light rig, and a heavUy-loaded centerboai-d. There 

 were two other boats of simUar type, Kaloola and Colymbus, but the 

 former was overpowered with too large a rig, while the latter, a Bos- 

 ton production, had such an absurd rig as to be unmanageable tiU she 

 took in three reefs, long after she was hopelessly out of the race. 



Fin, as usual, had it all her own way in the fourth class, but Dawdle 

 did exceedingly welL The times were:
