Larchmont Y. C. Annual Regatta. 
LARCHMONT— LONG ISLAND SOUND. 
Wednesday, July U. 
The annual regatta of the Larchmont Y. C, on July 4, was a good 
wholesome race, of the kind that is too seldom* seen of late years, 
with many classes, each well filled yachts, which are in practical 
service, and not specially built for racing. There were no star per- 
formers, but mainly such craft as Ariel, Sachem, Shamrock, Viator, 
Miuerva, Nymph, Sasqua, Audax and Madrine; ex racers or fast 
cruisers, but in no sense racing machines. The day was fair and 
pleasant, with a fresh south wind until late in the race, when after a 
short calm a thunderstorm in the northwest sent out more angry 
gusts, but amounted to little in the end. The usual club courses were 
sailed. Emerald beat Ariel quite handily, for the second time this 
season. Queen Mab, of 59ft., proved too much for Katrina, the fast 
70-footer. Wasp beat Gloriana quite badly. Gossoon broke the jaws 
of her gaff before reaching Captain's Island, and withdrew. Minerva 
finished first, but fouled a markboat, the prize going to Nymph. 
Sasqua, an older and smaller Ellsworth boat, pushed the fast Tigress 
very hard, and lost but by a few seconds. 
Tne new Memory in class 8, is a Herreshoff fin-keel, completed this 
year. Audax, Mr Eaton's fast yawl, has now no competitors of her 
own rig, so went in the 30ft. class, beating Pyxie and Gavilan; Madrine 
losing her mast on the first leg. In the larger cabin cat class, Almira 
broke down, and Onaway won 
The 21ft. class was again a failure, several boats were absent, and 
of those present Maysie lost her mast, and Flirt, Houri and Blonde 
and Brunette came to grief in their rigging. Minnetonka gave up, 
being overpowered on the wind. The official times were:

Shrewsbury Y. C. Annual Regatta. 
BED BANE.— SHREWSBURY RIVER. 
Wednesday, July k. 
The second annual regatta of the Shrewsbury Y. C. was sailed at 
Red Bank on July 4. Since the opening of this club's new house last 
summer many improvements have been made, includimg among 
others the grading and leveling off and sodding of the ground about 
the house, an expense of more than $700, and the introduction of gas 
in the house. Great interest was centered in the race, and the club 
house and balconies were filled with ladies and their escorts to the 
number of nearly 1,000. No better day could have been selected for 
the regatta, the wind was a good sailing breeze from S. W. and the day 
in other respects a beautiful one. 
The start and finish lines were in plain view off the club house, the 
courses being as follows: Classes A, B, C, D and G from the starting 
line across the river to flag stake No. 1 at Guion's Point, leaving it to 
starboard; then back to No. 2 in Boyd's Cove, leaving it to port; thence 
down the river to stake No. 3 off Brown's dock, leaving it to star- 
board; thence across river again to stake No. 4 off Fair Haven dock, 
leaving it to port; thence to flag stake No. 5 at head of the flats, leav- 
ing it to port; thence back to No. 4, leaving it to starboard; thence to 
No. 3. leaving it to port; thence No. 2, leaving it to starboard; thence 
to No. 1, leaving it to port, to finish, distance 10 miles. Classes E and 
F, same starting and finishing line, to stakes 1 and 2; thence to white 
and blue stake at mouth of McClees Creek; thence back to stake 2 and 
1 and between judge's boat and red flag stake; thence twice over fol- 
lowing course to stakes 1 and 2 and around judges' boat, distance 10 
miles. 
For this race most of the crack boats on the Shrewsbury River were 
entered, including W. N. DeGraw, Jr. 's new Stewart & Binney boat 
and McGiehan's new U and I. The DeGraw boat is a small Pilgrim 
without the fin-keel; she is fitted with a Tobin bronze centerboard and 
a brass rudder, both having been made at Lawley's in Boston, while 
the boat itself was built by Riddle on the South Shrewsbury, who 
sailed her in this race. Her sailing measurement was given as 26ft., 
she being 29ft. over all and 23ft. on waterline. There is no question 
that she is over-rigged, and would do much better with a smaller 
rig. From what could be learned, she has a hollow spar of 44ft., a very 
long bowsprit, and her boom must be fully 37ft. Her present rig 
woi'ld be suitable with a fin-keel, but in the whole sail breeze that was 
blowing she was unable to carry it. The only rig anywhere resem- 
bling this was carried by the late Com. Dilworth's Dare Devil, 27ft. 
4in., carrying a 43ft. spar and 37ft. boom. The Dare Devil was a much 
more powerful boat, however, having 12ft. beam. She should have 
made a much better showing, as she only beat Augusta, 22ft., an old- 
style Pat McGiehan boat belonging to Mr. Edward Kemp, by 5m. 57s, 
corrected, and Mr. Clinton James's Undine, a 22ft. cat, by lm. 39s. 
elapsed time. The DeGraw boat is peculiarly constructed in many 
respects, the tiller coming under the deck, and we understand the 
water came in the boat through her rudder trunk during the race. 
This will be remedied, however, by carrying the rudder trunk up to 
the deck. 
Most of the interest was centered in the 22ft. open cat class, in which 
was entered McGiehan's new creation, U and I. It is to be regretted, 
however, that Mr. Oakes's Enigma could not take part, but it is under- 
stood that on account of boat builder Riddle's working to get the 
DeGraw boat ready, he was unable to get Enigma out in time. Much 
expense had been gone to by the owner of Undine for this race by 
procuring a new rig for her, she carrying a 40ft. Young hollow spar 
with 32ft. hoist, the result showing the good judgment of Coin. James, 
who sailed her in this race; and Undine has once more resumed her 
place at the head of this class. The following are the full times:

Beverly Y. C, 208th Regatta. 
MARBLEHEAD— MASSACHUSETTS BAT. 
Saturday, June SO. 
The 208th regatta, first championship and open, was sailed on June 
30 at Marblehead. The day opened with a dead calm and dense fog. 
At 12 M., the starting hour, it was impossible for a boat to move, and 
fully half the entries had not arrived. By 12:30 a light W. by S. air 
struck in, and the start was made; but fourteen boats, mostly in sec- 
ond class, and including many of the best boats in the bay, were unable 
to arrive in time owing to the calm. Amorita and Wanda had it all 
their own way. In knockabout class, Trouble led to Halfway Rock and 
Otatsu was badly beaten ; but windward work reversed the order. The 
result in the tender class was veryclose. Course for second and 
knockabout classes, 10 miles; third and fourth classes, 9 miles; tender 
class, 3 miles. Summary:

The 209th regatta, first Buzzard's Bay championship, was sailed on 
July 4 at Monument Beach in a double reef S.W. breeze, but compara- 
tively smooth water. In second class Susie, who has had an excellent 
record at Marblehead, wished to enter as a sloop, but not knowing of 
any other boat in the class, came round as a cat, only to find Typhoon 
ready to meet her in sloop class. This of course left Typhoon alone, 
and she did not start. 
In the second class Gymnote has added a new and long stern, im- 
proving her running, but her new sail is a failure, and spoiled her to 
windward. 
The new Linotte had bad luck, breaking her boom just before the 
start; Anonyma led easily to windward with Mist a good second. Off 
the wind Gymnote gained rapidly and took second place. Ulula shook 
out buth reefs and nearly saved her time. Mist enlivened the finish by 
running away with her owner and bringing up on the judges' boat 
while going at full speed. The force of the blow wrecked the rigging 
of the judges' boat and broke the shank of her anchor short off. 
In the third class Nobska had it all her own way. She now sails as 
well to windward as free, and it will take a very fast boat to stop her. 
Gilt Edge, while doing very well, was fouled by Puzzle and lost her 
headstay. Both boats withdrew. 
Scintilla and Colymbus also fouled and later withdrew. 
In the fourth class cats Dawdle had a walk over, as Dodo broke her 
boom the night before, and Squall, who was expected, did not appear. 
Dawdle sailed a close race witn the Knockabouts. 
P D Q held a walk over in fifth class. 
The interest of the day centered on fourth class jib and mainsails, 
where three of the new centerboard knockabouts met Fin, an exceed- 
ingly good Herreshoff fin-keel who has had it all her own way for two 
years; and last but not least, Grilse, a 17ft. waterline Onawa. just built 
by Dyer and brought on from Lake Minnetonka. When delivered, her 
sail plan was larger than that of Onawa andutterly unfitforBuzzard's 
Bay. It was reduced one-third and is now rather small, though none 
too small for this class. She was sailed by Mr. Sidney Burgess and a 
good Corinthian crew, and carried a single-reef mainsail and a mere 
handkerchief of a jib. Her mainsail set very badly, and she broke her 
port shroud and various other things before the start, and started in a 
patched up condition. 
P D Q led off on the gun, with Grilse close at her heels, then Kitten 
with but little way on, and Dolly, who came with a rush and tried 
to get inside Kitten where there was no room, the result being that 
she hung up on the boom of the judges' boat and forced Fin and Tur- 
key, who were close hauled, to go back and start again, losing them 
some two minutes. 
Grilse at once took the lead, sailing fast and fairly close, and stead- 
ily gaining. She was wet, running her nose into a sea and scooping it 
upon deck till more or less water broke into the cockpit. This, how- 
ever, did not stop her, though sometimes she would spank down on a 
sea and stop, but start off again in an instant. 
Fin did well, but hardly held Grilse, and it is doubtful if she was 
beating Kitten or Turkey. She carried away jib off Toby Island and 
withdrew. 
Course was dead to windward to Pines Buoy, run home and repeat. 
There was no reaching. 
At end of first round Fin had repaired damages and started again 
with Grilse. She seemed to sail as fast, but did not hold as good^a 
wind as Grilse, and soon the head of her sail came off her gaff. Fi'n 
will discard cotton rope in future, as her new cotton rigging went in 
every direction. Kitten, Dawdle and Turkey crossed in a bunch, a 
very pretty finish. Come On and El Paso were timed by request, but 
not being owned in the club were not really in the race. Mist crossed 
wrong side of judges' boat, but her time is given for comparison, and 
taken when she fouled the judges' boat.

Southern Y. C, Brewster Cup. 
WEST END— LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN. 
Tuesday, June S6. 
The Brewster cup race for sloops over 30ft., in cruising rig, was 
sailed at New Orleans on June 26, and was won for the third consecu- 
tive time by Mr Chas. P. Richardson's 45ft. Burgess sloop Nepenthe. 
The day was very favorable for yachting, with about au eight-knot 
breeze. The race was on the order of a procession; beginning with 
the largest boat first they were strung out like the tail of a kite, taper- 
ing to the rear with the little Elaine, the centerboarder that was re- 
built to fit the lines of a 30ft. modern-bowed keel boat. Corrected 
time made a slight change in the order of the finish, Com. O'DonnelTs 
Florence taking second place by 44 seconds:

Glenny Bros., and Silence, Peter Labouisse, for $250 a side. Just 
before the race started Lufki Humma reported a split in her mast- 
head. The judges decided that if either boat carried away a masthead 
it would be no race. The race was sailed without accident. Lufki 
Humma started first, but was passed on the first round. Silence held 
her lead and won handily. Com. Alex. Brewster sailed Silence and

On July 8 the steam yacht May, Com. Morgan, New York Y. O, 
sailed from New York for Cowes, first calling at Fayal. On board 
with Com. Morgan were Mrs. Morgan, Mrs. Arthur Mason Jones, H. 
H. Crocker and Dr. W. T. Luss. Capt. Harry Craven is in command 
with a total crew of 40. The yacht has been completely redecorated 
this spring and is now in perfect condition. Com. Morgan will watch 
the Vigilant-Britannia races, the length of his stay being uncertain. 
In view of his absence the following orders have been issued: General 
Order No. 1— I have appointed Mr. F. T. Robinson fleet captain. — E. 
D. Morgan, Commodore. General Order No. 2— Absence from home 
waters will prevent Commodore Morgan from undertaking his official 
duties this summer. Vice-Commodore Brown will therefore assume 
command of the squadron. — F. T. Robinson, Fleet Captain.
