NEW YORK Y. C. CRUISE, 1893. 



It is rather a. strange turn of affairs that lias gradually taken place 

 of late years, the virtual opening of the racing season in August in- 

 stead of June ; but it is more and more apparent each year that the 

 life has gone out of eai-ly racing, and that the real sport only begins 

 with the New York Yacht Club's annual cruise. Important as this 

 grand gathering of the fleet has become, there is much lost by the 

 very late beginning of the season, especially when new yachts built 

 for international races are to be tried and worked up ; and it would 

 be in every way better if the old-time June racing could be restored. 

 With the racing fleet in readiness about the middle of June there 

 would not only be several weeks of good racing then, but the boats 

 would be in better condition for the races of the cruise, and the latter 

 would gain rather than lose. 



This year the spring races are not worth considering, the results, 

 such as they are, may be entirely disregarded ; and the race of Tues- 

 day last may be considered as the first of the season. 



The programme this year is much the same as in 1891-2, the rendez- 

 vous being at Glen Cove, at the west end of Long Island Sound, and 

 the regular squadron runs being made as follows : August 8, Glen 

 Cove to Morris Cove (New Haven) ; 9, Morris Cove to New London ; 

 10, New London to Newport ; 12, Newport to Vineyard Haven ; 14, 

 Vineyard Haven to New Bedford ; 15, New Bedford to Newport. This 

 year there has been no talk of prolonging the cruise around rhe 

 Cape, such a coxu-se being manifestly impossible on account of the 

 many races of the 85-footers which must be sailed. 

 The official programme of the cruise is as follows: 

 By invitation of the commodore, the regatta committe will make the 

 cruise on the flagship. Y^achts entered for any racing event will dis- 

 play their numbers and private signals, Rule X., Section 3. Numbers 

 can be obtained at the club house, 67 Madison ave., or on board the 

 May. Club rules and time allowances will govern all races unless 

 otherwise directed. Entries must be made in writing and addressed 

 to the committee. Race records can be obtained on board the May. 



Racing events— Sailing directions will be mailed later. They can 

 also be obtained at the club house and on board the May. 



Off the rendezvous, Aug. 7. The Commodore's Cups.— The commo- 

 dore offers a cup for scliooners and a cup for sloops, cutters and 

 yawls, to be sailed for on the day of rendezvous by yachts belonging 

 to the club, in racing trim. Start. 11:30 A. M. Entries will be received 

 at the club house up to 10 P. M., Aug. 5, and on board the May up to 

 10:30 A. M., Aug. 7. Course, triangular, from off Glen Cove to the 

 eastward and return, 30 miles. 



Newport, Aug. 11. The Goelet Cups, 13th series.— For schooners a 

 $1,000 cup. For sloops, cutters and yawls a $500 cup. Offered by 

 Capt. Og<len Goelet, N. Y^ Y. C, and open to yachts belonging to the 

 club that have not hauled out to clean since the commencement of the 

 cruise. Capt. Goelet reserves the privilege of inviting foreign yachts 

 that may be in American waters, to enter the race. Start, 11:30 A. M. 

 Entries will be received at the club house up to 10 P. M., Aug. 5, and 

 on noard the May up to 8 A. M., Aug. 11. Course No. 4 or No. 5 (By- 

 Laws, Chap. XVI.) as maj' be signalled. 



On the squadron's return from the eastward— The Astor Cups — 

 Capt. J. J. Astor, N. Y. Y. C„ off'ers two f600 cups to be sailed tor off 

 Newport by sloops, cutters and yawls belonging to the club. Capt. 

 Astor reserves the right to admit foreign yachts in American waters. 

 Time limit, 6 hours. Start, 11 A. M. Entries will be received at the 

 club house up to 10 P. M., Aug. 5, and on the May up to 10 A. M.. Aug. 

 16. Course, a triangle, 10 miles to a leg, the first leg to windward, if 

 possible. The winner of the first day's race is to take one cup, and 

 the winner, second and third and fourth boats shall compete in the 

 second race for the other cup. In the event of the second cup being 

 won by the boat which was second or third in the first day's race, 

 there shall be a third race between these two boats, and the winner of 

 the third race shall take both cups. 



Squadron runs. — There will be the customary runs from port to 

 port, in cruising trim. In each class there will be a prize for first if 

 two, or more, start; and a prize for second if four, or more, start. 

 When the commodore has ordered the squadron under way, the May 

 will establish the starting line, and yachts wishing to be timed will 

 Cross displaying their numbers and private signals. They will finish 

 between the May and the i:)oLnts indicated. Water can be taken into, 

 and started from, the tanks up to 8 o'clock each morning. 



Steamboats for members. Aug. 7. — The CJpmmodore's Cup. — The 

 Taurus (Iron Steamhoat Co.) will leave the foot of East Seth st. at 

 9:45 A. M. ; Long Island City (annex of L. I. R. R.) at 10, and will make 

 a landing at Roslyn. She will touch at these points returning. Mem- 

 bers can obtain their tickets, which will not be transferable and will 

 admit one lady each— and extra tickets S3 each — from the superin- 

 tendent at the club house, 07 Madison ave. 



Aug. 11. The Goelet Cups.— The Gay Head (New England and Nan- 

 tucket Line) will leave the foot of Long AVharf, Newport, at 10 A. M.

 of Long Wharf at 10:15 on the morning of each race. Members can 

 obtain their tickets, $3 each, and extra tickets at the same price, from 

 Capt. Sands, at the Newport station. 



Tickets for each of these events will include lunch, exclusive of 

 wines.

With ordinarily good weather there is every good prospect of the 

 programme being carried out and of the fleet being back at Newport 

 by Aug. 15 and disbanding on that date. These runs will, as usual, be 

 races for aU to choose to start, in cruising trim, with a first prize' for 

 two starters and a second prize for four, in each class and each run. 



Apart from the racing rims three races will be sailed, the first on 

 the day of rendezvous, Aug. 7, off Glen Cove, for two cups, one for 

 schooners and one for single-stickers, presented by Com. Morgan, all 

 yachts being in cruising trim. This race will give to the many mem- 

 bers about New York an opportunity to see the fleet under way and 

 the racing division in a race. The second race of the cruise will be for 

 the Goelet cups, sailed off Newport on Aug. 11, over one of the two 

 regular courses. Sow and Pigs or Block Island, and wall be notable as 

 the first meeting of the four cup defenders. The third contest will be 

 a series of two or three races, to be sailed off Newport at the return 

 of the fleet, for two $600 cups, presented by Mr. Astor; this race being 

 practically limited to the four big boats, aa in the event of the start- 

 ing of two or three of them it would be idle for a 46-footer to start. 

 Yachts entering for any of the races must not have hauled out to 

 clean after Monday. 



For the past two weeks the yachts have been busy over the flnal 

 preparations, most of them bemg docked as late as possible. Colonia 

 came down from Newport and hauled out at Downing & Lawrence's 

 railway, Gowanus, on Aug. 1, where she was held until the morning 

 tide of Monday, going over at 3 A. 31. and towing to the start for the 

 first race. Her new hollow boom proved entirely too limber on trial 

 and was at once discarded temporarily for the former solid one; the 

 boom buckled badly and drew the mainsafl out of shape. Another 

 hollow boom has been made for her at Bristol, 34in. diameter in the 

 slings and 20in. at each end. It is built of two thicknesses Oregon 

 pine, wooden hoops being used inside, with bracing between them. 

 Being much larger than the first hollow boom, it is expected to be 

 stiffer. A similar boom 100ft. long has also been made for Vigilant. 

 The latter boat went out early in the week at Hawkins's ways, City 

 Island, lying there only a couple of days, hut during this time she was 

 inspected by a large number of yachtsmen. Her bronze bottom was 

 carefully polished and the topsides painted, and a new boom and gaff 

 made by Piepgrass were shipped. 



Jubilee was hauled out at the Atlantic Works. East Boston, on 

 Aug. 2, in the presence of Gen. Paine and Mr. John B. Paine. She has 

 had a solid topmast made to replace the hoUow one first used, and one 

 of the three shrouds of the hounds has been shifted to the masthead, 

 making two to each point. Her mainsail has been cut down, as it had 

 stretched considerably. Pilgrim was docked on Aug, 1, at the Boston 

 Navy Yard, where a cradle of heavy timbers, simflar to the one used 

 in New York, was built for her by Mr. Jaa. Mclatyre, the yacht 

 buUder. She was scraped and painted and the small forward center- 

 board, which has never been required in saihng, was removed and the 

 slot filled with wood- She and Jubfleewill join the fieet at Newport, 

 or possibly the latter may run to New London. 



Monday, August 7, Commodore's Cups. 



Glen Cove, Long Island Sound. 



Monday was a perfect racing day, clear, warm and bright, and with 

 a rattling northwest wind, strong and steady, save for the hard puffs 

 that are always met from that quarter. The water was perfectly 

 smooth and the bi eeze tempered the heat of the sun, so that the mem- 

 bers and guests, for whom this race was specially planned by the 

 Commodore, had everything to their liking In the matter of weather. 

 The h-on steamer Taurus was waiting early, with a band on board and 

 the usual complement of edibles, but strange to say the tm-nout was 

 much smaller than one would expect, in fact, the members were slow 

 to avail themselves of the good things provided by the club. 



The course for the race was a 26 mile triangle, between Matinnicock 

 Point, a markboat off Green's Ledge, Norwalk Islands, and a mark- 

 boat off Lloyd's Neck and home. With the wiud N.W it was impossi- 

 ble to obtain any beating, and the signals from the May caUed for the 

 course sailed with all marks to starboard, as above, making a free 

 reach to the first mark, 12J4 miles, naut., a reach across to Lloyd's 

 Neck. 4 miles, and a single long leg closehauled of 9)^ miles to 'the 



As the race was mainly intended for those on the Taurus, the start 

 was delayed as long as possible for the arrival of that vessel ; but after 

 leaving New York late and waiting for the usual laggards, she reached 

 Glen Cove, where a large party was waiting, only to find that the ebb 

 tide would prevent her getting into the dock. A long time was 

 wasted in ferrying the ladies out in launches, and the race had stated 

 before the steamer left Glen Cove. With such a wind no steamboat in 

 the Iron fleet could overtake the yachts; so the members lost all of the 

 first half of the race. 



May, with Com. Morgan and the regatta committee aboard, was 

 anchored about 1]4 miles off JIatinnicock Point, with a sloop carrying 

 the club flag an eighth of a mile inshore of her, marking the line. 

 When the preparatory gun was fired at 18:15, the Sound and Hemp- 

 stead Bay was covered with a fleet of yachts, saU and steam, down to 

 canoes and catboats. 



The racing division included Vigilant, Colonia, Queen Mab and Ililde- 

 garde, and the schooners Lasca, Alcsea, Constellation, Coronet, Em- 

 erald, Dagmar, Ariel, Ramona and Marguerite. The starting gun for 

 the single-stickers was fired at 12:25, the first over being Queen Mab, 

 with Vigilant just to leeward and Colonia and Hildegarde about a 

 minute astern. The schooners started five minutes later, the official 

 times of the start being : 



Queen Mab 13 26 13 Constellation 12 :i2 56 



Vigilant 13 26 43 Lasca 12 .3-3 23 



Colonia 32 27 57 Dagmar 12 33 32

Alcasa 12 31 14 Marguerite 12 .39 00 



Ariel 12 31 29 Coronet IS 35 00 



Emerald 12 32 14 



All carried jibheaded topsails and small jibtopsails, the two big cut- 

 ters setting baUoon foresails. With a strong quartering wind Vigilant 

 set a high pace from the start, soon passing Queen Mab, but her race 

 was a short one; when hardly a dozen minutes from the start her bow- 

 sprit and topmast went, the former a few feet outside the stem, and 

 the latter at the cap; she dropped anchor, cleared the wreck and ran 

 into Glen Cove, towing over to Piepgrass's yard later in the day for 

 new spars before the (joelet Cup race of Friday. Coronet was also in 

 trouble, her maintofisail getting adrift and blowing out to leeward for 

 a time, finally breaking away and sailing hke a white cloud through 

 space before it dropped into the drink. Soon after her jibtopsail burst 

 and fiew far out to leeward. 



Colonia was now in the lead, driving fast for the outer mark and 

 holding her own at this work with ConsteUation, of 20ft. more water- 

 line. The puffs came hard at times, and oft" Greenwich two or three of 

 the schooners were luffing out and heeling to a dangerous angle. The 

 times at the first mark were: 



Colonia 1 26 30 Ariel 1 33 05 



Constellation 1 31 20 Lasca .'...1 34 16 



Alcasa 1 m SO Ramona 1 34 40 



After a jibe came a short reach across the Sound to Lloyd's Neck. 

 The clew of Oolonia's staysail burst and the sail was stowed, this leg 



COLONIA ON THE RAILWAY. 



being covered under mainsail, jib and working topsail. She came for 

 the mark with a big wave under her lee bow, the weather side of the 

 deck wet with the flying spray and quite a heel on. .Just to leeward 

 and ahead of her was 5lr. Rogers's old Bedouin, now flying the colors 

 of Mr. C. W. Wetmore, out for a sail with ladies on board. With 

 Colonia's huge spars towering high above Bedouin's httle ones, it 

 seemed as though the new boat should walk quickly by, but the old 

 cutter held her place well until the mark was passed and sheets 

 trimmed in, when Colonia soon left her. The second mark was timed: 



Colonia 1 47 50 Lasca 1 .56 06 



Constellation 1 51 11 Ramona 1 56 57 



Alcffia 1 53 55 Emerald 1 59 40 



Ariel 1 55 03 Coronet 2 01 :39 



After a quick luff and a pull at the sheets all were off for the finish, 

 close-hauled on starboard tack. All weathered the luie on this tack 

 save Lasca, who fetched just to leeward of the mai k-boat and had to 

 make two short tacks to get across. The full times were :

Ariel probably wins the schooner cup, but she has not been meas- 

 ured. Colonia wins the single-stick cup. Not a few who ^vitnessed 

 the race were really looking to see Queen Mab make a bid for the prize 

 against Colonia and Vigilant, and many expressions of surprise were 

 heard at the way Vigilant walked by the little Watson boat. There Is 

 something very inconsistent in the contempt generally expressed for 

 Valkyrie and Britannia and the general idea thjit the little Queen Mab 

 may really save her time from the new Cup defenders. Even in a 

 breeze there is nothing very wonderful In ll,0(Kif t. of saU running away 

 from 4,000ft. A better gauge of Queen Mab's ability may be had by 

 the way she defeated Hildegarde, of her own length, once among the 

 fastest of the eenterboard sloops. After the race Colonia started at 

 once in tow of the tug Dalzell for Newport. The fleet laid at anchor 

 over night and saUed on Tuesday morning for Morris Cove.

GRERNWICH — LONB ISLAND SOCNB. 



Saturday, July 29. 

 The annual regatta of the Indian Harbor Y. C. wassaUedon July 29, 

 the day opening unfavorably for the large party on the club steamer, 

 the rain falling steadily and a .strong S. W. wind blowing. Later on the 

 weather improved from the spectators' standpoint, and at the same 

 time there was wind enough for the race to finish. The courses were, 

 for aU yachts not over ;iuft., the l:j-mil(5 triangle between Little 

 Captain's Island, Matinnicock and Center Island." and for the larger 

 boats around the Matinnicock mai t, then around the Ct^uier Island 

 buoy and home again by Matinnicock. The chief incident of the dav 

 was the grounding of the schooner Loyal on the Hen and Chickens 

 reef as she was working for the starting line. She ran hard on the 

 rocks, and with a faUing tide nothing could be done by the steamers 

 toward towing her off. 'Legs were rigged and a message sent to the 



Chapman WrecMng Co., whose derrick came up and hauled her off 

 at high water that night, she going to Cold Spring to haul out. No 

 serious damage was done. When the start was made at 12:45 P. M. 

 the skies were clearing and the wind had fallen a httle, the rest o£ the 

 day being pleasant. The times were:
