Corinthian Fleet— Annual Rcj^atta. 
NEW BOCHBLLE— HARBISON'S ISLAND 
Wednesday, June SO. 
The annual regatta of the Corinthian Fleet of New 
Rochelle was sailed on J une 30 in a reefing breeze from 
N.W., the yachts carrying from one to three reefs. As on 
the preceding days of the circuit, the weather was all that 
could be asked — clear and bright, with a warm summer sun 
and enough wind to temper the atmosphere. The course 
was a triangle of 14 miles, for all classes, from off Echo Bay 
around the West Buoy on Execution Reef and then around 
Matinnicock and home. The start was made at 2:07, the 
capsize of the lee markboat on the line causing delay after 
the committee launch was all ready. Some of the yachts 
were reefing at the time, and the start was slow and the 
yachts well strung out. At the same time it was a most 
picturesque sight, every boat crossing under fall headway 
with sheets well off to port. There was wind and to spare, 
and spinakers were set with Irish reefs in. 
The new 20ft. class showed four starters; the two Hunting- 
ton boats Skate and Kenue, Shark, and the Crane boat Al 
Anka. The latter sailed over in the morning from Oyster 
Bay with a crew of three Boston yachtsmen aboard. She 
left behind her younger sister Momo, with Mr. Crane him- 
self, the bowsprit of Momo having been broken in shipping 
her. Al Anka is about as ugly as anything in the class, her 
bow beiug a semicircle on deck, and the upper strake being 
vertical and about Gin.deep, like the end of a ferryboat or the 
stern of an ordinary steam launch or tug. She is something 
like El Heirie, but by no means so good-looking. Her stern 
is cut off square, as in El Heirie. The workmanship is very 
good, and she shows handsome mahogany sides and bright 
pine decks. Her mainsail is cross-cut. She steers with a 
double-ended tiller like a letter Y. She was badly handi- 
capped at the start, but won very easily. 
The fleet ran across the three-mile leg to Execution Buoy 
with spinakers to starboard, then jibed and ran for the 
Matinnicock mark. At the jibe Norota struck the little 
Keneu squarely amidships on the port side, cutting her down 
to the waterline and dismasting her, so that she was towed 
in a wreck by the steam yacht Emmeline, Norota also giving 
up. 
After rounding Matinnicock the 30-footers laid a straight 
course for the finish, but the twenties fetched to leeward and 
were obliged to tack. Al Anka was in the lead, with Shark 
second, Skate had more wind than she wanted and stopped 
under the end of Huckleberry Island to tie in a third reef, 
finally beating home without a jib. The official times were:

Horseshoe Harbor Club.— Annual Regatta, 
LARCH MONT— LONG ISLAND SOUND, 
Thursday, July 1. 
The Horseshoe Harbor Club, located in the snug little 
bight to the westward of Pagoda Point, Larchmont, held its 
annual sailing regatta on July 1. The course was a 5-mile 
triangle from off Horseshoe Harbor to the striped buoy off 
Whortleberry Island, then to the striped buoy on the east 
end of Execution Reef and home, sailed three times by the 
larger and twice by the smaller yachts. The wind was 
S.S. W., a moderate breeze over most of the course, but fall- 
ing light at the finish. The oflicial times were:

Xew Rochelle T. C. Annual Begpatta. 
NEW BOCHELLK— LONG ISLAND SOUND. 
Saturday, July 3. 
The New Rochelle Y. C. finished up the racing week with 
its annual regatta, turning out a fleet of fifty yachts, from 
51ft. down to I5ft. racing length. Out of the fifteen classes 
represented, six had five or more starters, a very good show- 
ing; in the special 30ft. class and the open and cabin cat 
classes there were some very interesting contests. The 20ft. 
class had but three starters, Shark and the two Crane boats, 
Al Anka and Momo, the latter sailing her first race. Neither 
Skate, Keneu, Asthore, Montauk, Arauca were present. 
Volsung had a new rival in the Hanley catboat Kit, a craft 
of more extreme type, with fuller body and higher freeboard. 
Minnetonka, the Dyer 21-footer of 1895, sailed as a cat, as she 
has done in previous races this year. 
The courses were two triangles, the longer from off the 
mouth of Echo Bay to the Gangway Buoy, thence to the Old 
Hen Buoy and home, 73^ miles; the shorter from the same 
line to the red buoy off Hen and Chickens, thence to the 
striped buoy off Execution Reef and home, 43^ miles. The 
wind was light from the East, giving a beat on the first leg 
to the little fellows, while the larger ones had a long and 
short tack on the second leg of their course, along the shore 
by Sands Point. The start was made at 12:32, but as there 
were no schooners the second division crossed at 12:42, Syce 
and Banshee^ the others following. 
Third Division, 12:47— Hera, Surprise, Wa Wa, Acushla 
Musme, Pontiac, Carolina, Wahneta, Twilight and Veda, 
Fourth Division, 12:52— Houri, Vaquero, Volsung, Kit. 
Qaantuck, Agawam, Onaway, Dorothy, Dosoris II., Jester 
(yawl), Ola, Celia, Sparrow. 
Fifth Division, 12:57— Ethel, Presto, Momo, Shark, Ida K., 
Al Anka, Melita, Emma S. , Ondawa, Grace, Uno, Punch, 
Edwina, Sequel, Colleen, Stranger. 
Sixth Division, 1:02— Sora, Starling, Minnetonka, Addie, 
Dorothy, Laura Lee. 
The yachts of the fifth division, Ethel, Presto, Momo, Shark 
and Al Anka, were tangled up on the line, the wind being 
very light at the moment, There was enough breeze outside 
the harbor to move the yachts at a fair speed and to make a 
picturesque, if only mildly exciting race. The day was as 
clear and bright as one could wish, with perfectly smooth 
water over the Sound. The first round was timed:

On the first leg of the second round Kit, after turning 
almost even with Volsung, stood off shore, while Volsung, 
Dorothy and Dosoris II. held the other tack close in by 
Premium Point. These three lost the wind while Kit caught 
a light breeze and made a lead of s.ome seven minutes on 
Volsung; the latter, however, finally caught and passed her. 
Al Anka had led her class from the start, finishing the 
round with a good lead on Momo, Shark being hopelessly 
astern. On the windward leg Momo crept up and passed Al 
Anka, finally beating her. The second round was timed:

Hobe Sound Y. C. 
HOBE Sound, Fla. , June 28.— The Queen had a jubilee last 
week, so we took advantage of the excuse for a holiday and 
had a yacht race. The start was made in a gale from N.E., 
which lulled soon after the first buoy was rounded, and, 
shifting to the east, made it a free reach to the second buoy 
and a luff back to the line. It was anybody's race among 
the four that lived through the gale, there being only 5ft. 
between the first two to cross the line, and less than two 
minutes between the first and last in the five miles. The 
times were as follows:

We sailed our second race yesterday in a fair sailing breeze 
and managed to get all the boats around the course without 
an accident and in pretty fair time. The course is straight 
away and return, as the Indian River, at Hobe Sound, is 
only three-fourths of a mile wide. We have the southeast 
trade wind at this season and our course is laid so we get a 
beat for one and one-half miles, a run for two and one-half 
miles and a beat back to the line, one mile. In all flye miles.
