The criticism has been very generally made, both this year and last, 
that such yachts as Ethelwynn, Ideal and Two Step would be much 
faster if rigged with the ancient and conventional gaffl to fan them oud 
to windward in some unexplained way than with the leg-o'-mutton 
sail, devoid of a peak. Last year, however, Ethelwynn was speedy 
enough to defeat six of her class under boom and gafiC rig; and this 
year Glencairn has scored a decisive victory under the les-o'-mutton 
rig. As the picture shows, her rig is identical in principle with the 
"Scarecrow" rig, differing only in mechanical details. When under 
full sail the single pole mast of the "Scarecrow" rig is in every way 
better; when reefed the shorter mast and separate yard are advan- 
tageous in lowering the weight and lessening the windage. As far aa 
the argument between the gaff sail and the leg-o '-mutton is concerned' 
the weight of evidence is now on the side of the latter. 
Guesswori£ Criticism. 
As a racing class, the IS-footers are probably quite able to take care 
of themselves; they have f utnished good SDort in international racing 
for two years; they have increased in numbers to an exceptionally 
large fleet; they have attracted the interest of the yachting public, 
and have enlisted in their service many pkillful designers and sailors, 
both amateur and professional. While they need no defender or apol- 
ogist—especially at this time, when they represent with the new thir- 
ties the two live racing classes of the year — we are nevertheless not 
inclined to let pass unchallenged the malicious and untruthful attacks 
upon them from a certain quarter. 
For some unknown cause the class from its first establishment 
awakened the enmity of the expert known to fame as the "Boston 
Herald Man," and he has persistently attacked it throughout the pres- 
ent season. Even were the class so bad and so useless as to call for 
condemnation in the interests of yachting, it is hardly probable that 
it would be entirely devoid of good, and that nothing could be learned 
by a technical study of the individual boats and a comparison of their 
qualities snd performances; far from being extreme, expensive or in 
any way detrimental to the advancement of yachting, the class is in 
many respects an excellent one, and beyond this again its history up 
to to-day is replete with instructive data that no progressive yachts- 
man can afford to ignore. The character and animus of this attack 
upon It is shown by the wholesale and indiscriminate condemnation of 
it and the yanhtsmen connected with it, as well as by the absence of 
all attempts to understand and explain the important lessons of the 
races. We quote the following extracts from various articles by the 
same writer in both the Boston and New York Heralds: 
"So far as science of yacht naval architecture goes, the result of 
races between any boats built under guesswork rules amounts to 
nothing. The difference in the dimensions and the area of the sails 
shows this, and the result of the guesswork of those getting up the 
craft indicates that the Glencairn people bad hit it the better. 
"The boats were built under a guesswork rule— that is, a specified 
rating was named, and, in order to get this, you may cut off sail if 
you wanted waterline length, and add sail if you took off waterline 
length The result shows that, under the guess rule, the Canadian 
boat has 60ft. more sail area to make up for her shorter length, and 
it ia history rtpeating itself , for the Boston 21-footers, with their 
larger sail spreads, could beat the Herreshoff 25-footers Wenonah and 
El Chico, with their loBger waterline lengths and smaller sail plans. 
Many will claim, and with justice, that there is considerable guess- 
work in yacht naval architecture. There is, but not to so great an 
extent as the boats which raced yesterday. On limited waterline 
lengths, the same as the Defender, the designer is not fenced in In 
his driving, and there is no limit on sail area. Consequently, he does 
not cut down the sail area to gain on the waterline. It is quite evident 
that the Qlencairn's designer thought more sail and less length would 
be better than the dimensions of El Heirle, both on length on water- 
line and canvas area." 
"Perhaps now that the promoters of this 'inland pond' type of yacht 
have lost the international yacht race, they will be willing to come 
back again to sensible, comfortable boats, where 'hit and go' does not 
have so much to do with the result as that of the guesswork designed 
boats which raced to-day. They are hardly the boats grown-up men 
should sail an international race in," 
"The above table shows clearly the guesswork business indulged in 
by the different designers. The In It, with 10ft. on the waterline, has 
360sq. ft. of sail, while the Answer, with 16ft. waterline, has 194sq. ft. 
Here are a dozen and more boats built under a rule which is restrictive, 
and they show that the boats with the lesser waterline length have a 
greater sail area than those with longer waterlines. It is come and go 
on the guess business. 
"The designer of the Ethelwynn does not relish the work of showing 
up these boats, which offer no information whatever so far as giving 
any ideas about actual racing. He does not like the great 21-footer8, 
built wholly for racing on the widest differences in type ever con- 
structed in this country, a class which furnished more information 
for Cup defending purposes than any class yet built on either side. If 
the wide-beamed 21-footer had a ton of pig lead below and a jug of 
lemonade in a race off Marblehead, the Ethelwynn offered no such 
comfort, for she capsized, was deserted by her owner in a race, and 
such a thing as the comforts of a jug of lemonade were not to be 
thought of. Besides, thenwner of the big, wide 81-footer has the com- 
fort of taking his family out for a sail How about Ethelwynn in this 
regard? 
"The Herreshoff boats Gnome and Ollta were built for the class, but 
The racing list shows that the Olita did not start. The Gnome started 
in three races, finished ninth in the first and was 27 minutes astern of 
the Ideal on a wild fluke. She was not placed in the second and thirrl 
races, although she started; neither was she selected to start m the 
fiuppiemeatftry race, wtj^i better eyideoQe co«W tbere be tbftc 
chance anfl opportunity have a great deal to do with results in yacht 
racing? Here is the case of Mr. C. H. Crane, with one boat for his 
chance, beating Stephens and Herreshoff, each with two chances, and 
this in a match where Mr, Stephens had the Ethelwynn to work on 
and Mr. Herreshoff twenty-flve years' experience. The Budder truly 
8ays:_ 'There is not one boat in the lot in which a man of sense would 
Ventura to take out his best girl for a sail.' 
"The result of the races will prove nothing— It is hit or miss, as be- 
tween the respective designers, and yachtsmen will not be at all bene- 
fited by the races; indeed, they are not greatly interested. It is an 
Anglo-American fad, this class of boats, and when any writer says 
they 'go like torpedo boats' he is telling 'banshee' stories." 
In order to understand the true nature of the above attack, it must 
be remembered that the author of it is not a mere general reporter 
sent off for a day to try his band at a yacht race, but an expert, a 
man to whom the inner working of the minds of such designers as 
Herreshoff and Watson is as plain as the palm of his own hand, who 
can detect a difference of a hundredth part of a foot in the location of 
the centers of two such yachts as Defender and Valkyrie, and who, by 
his own admission, can look- down on the deck of two 15 foo+er8 and 
discern that one has a half Inch more draft than the other. He comes 
from Boston to see for the first time the objects that he has been de- 
riding for a year; he looks on with contempt while many isnorant 
and deluded yachtsmen watch with keen interest the series of races, 
and turns homeward in disgust because "thousands of dollars have 
been put into the IS-footers and knockabouts, yet no intelligent yachts- 
man can claim that they help in knowledge for future Cup defenders. 
No man knows, nor can he know, what the best elements of a 90-footer 
are." 
The talk about guesswork in this class is not only absurd and un- 
true, but is an insult to the dozen or more designers who have worked 
out so carefully and conscientiously the problem of the fastest 15- 
footer. They at least have understood what the Boston Herald man 
professes to be ignorant of— that a yacht of half a ton displacement, 
sailed by two men, the ratio of crew to displacement being about 33 
per cent,, can necessarily have little connection with a yacht of 150 
tons displacement and sailed by fifty, or a ratio of say S per cent. ; 
and also that no man to-day would build a yacht for international 
racing in any class and at the same time try to make a safe family 
cruiser of her. Apropos of the guesswork in this class, it is interest- 
ing to note that the four gentlemen associated with the winning boats 
of the trial and cup races— El Heirie and Glencairn— are all engineers 
by profession, men educated in technical schools and engaged in exact 
pcientiflc pursuits other than yacht designing. In the case of El 
Heirie, her designer was impressed by a chance suggestion thrown 
out in the course of last season's races; he took up the idea, studied 
and elaborated It, and produced a craft whose originality and excel- 
lence has attracted the well-deserved attention of experts. 
In the case of Glencairn her designer and his associate worked in 
another direction, starting with the winner of last year's races as a 
basis. A number of yachts were designed, built and tried under con- 
ditions far more severe than those prevailing about the Sound, one 
change after another was made, both in dimensions and model, and 
as a result the championship in yachting has been won by a foreign 
nation for the first time. The winning yacht herself cannot be dis- 
posed of by mere platitudes about gueRSwork, best girls and Anglo- 
American fads; but she is likely to cause some very serious thinking 
among those who are desirous of regaining the cup. 
As for last year's champion, she was no more the result of guess- 
work than of elaborate calculations involving the higher mathematics: 
far from these two wild extremes of designing, she was the result of 
a careful comparison of results in many small craft, none exactly 
like her, for the same class and purpose, as none such then existed. 
The qualities and performances of various small bulb-fins were care- 
fully weighed, and much attention was given to the 16x30 racing 
canoe, with its large sail area and sliding seat, as in a measure con- 
nected with the problem of the 15ft. class. 
The designer of Ethelwynn does not relish the task of ascertaining, 
if possible, and of explaining to the readers of the Forkst and Strkam 
why, in this class at least, El Heirie possesses certain elements of ad- 
vantage over anything of the general type of Ethelwynn, Sorceress or 
Riverside; nor of unlearning and learning others; but at the same 
time he does not propose to shirk the responsibilities of his editorial 
position by venting his disappointment in mere abuse. 
As to the safe family side of the question, here is an extract from 
the Boston Herald concerning one of the type to which its yachting 
editor is so devoted as to see no good in any other: 
"The Eureka carried a big racing jib, which was torn badly. Just 
after starting she was struck by a heavy puff, took in barrels of wa- 
ter and, after quite a hard struggle, regained her feet." 
The statement that Ethelwynn capsized and was deserted by her 
owner is simply a bald untruth with no foundation of fact; that her 
owner was frightened for no reason at all, and abandoned a race that 
he might have easily won, proved no more against the seaworthiness 
of the yacht than did Lord Dunraven's withdrawal on the last day 
against Valkyriu'd speed. 
Perhaps the most extraordinary part of this attack upon what is in 
one sense a New York clsss, though it is now really a national one. 
Is the action of the New York Herald, a paper presumably devoted to 
the interests of yachting and of Ntw York. This journal has on its 
staff an old and experienced writer, who has for years conducted its 
yachting department. On this occasion it set aside its own man and 
imported from Boston this expert to report the Seawanhaka races; 
his chief qualifications being a violent dislike of the 15ft. class, of the 
Seawanhaka rule, and a strong jealousy of New York. 
Yacht Racing on the Miramichi River. 
The Miramichi Y. C.'e annual race for the championship pennant 
presented to the club by Vice Com. Stewart was sailed between Mur- 
doch's Point and Oak Point, four miles and return, on July 1, in a 
howling nor'wester. It was a run to Napan buoy, a reach from there 
to Oak Point, a reach back to Napan buoy, and a dead heat to the 
finish. Maude, Learig and Oriana were the entries. The two latter 
were rapid, while the more powerful Maude had only one reef turned 
in. Learig led to Oak Point, closely pursued by Maude, when Com. 
Miller captured the lead by making a shorter turn. Oriana was close 
astern, and in the windward work on the homestretch she split tacks 
with the leaders, crossed their bows soon after, and kept the .weather 
gauge to the finish, winning the race by li,^m. She has been classed 
as a light wind boat and her owner, Vice-Com J. L. Stewart, was 
warmly congratulated on having won in a two-reef breeze.

way to a moderate S, W. wind, with which the course was sailed out in 
good time. Special handicaps were made between Ramona and At- 
lantic, and Liris and Uvira, the other classes sailing under the club 
rules. The usual triangular courses were sailed, the times being:
