The following description of the new boats is from 
the Montreal Star : 
As the date of the Contest for the possession of the 
Seawanhaka clip fof the ensuing year is approaching, a 
somewhat more detailed description of the boats built by 
the Royal St. Lawrence Y. C. for the defense of the cup 
will be intefestiilg to yachtsmen everywhere. 
As has already beetl atihounced, four boats have been 
built, from which the selection of the defender will be 
tnade as sooil as their respective merits can be ascertained. 
These boats Wefe paitlted different colors, and each Was 
named according to the partidular color it was painted. 
Thus there were the red, the black, the white and the 
green boats, all built and rigged so much alike that even 
the builder could hardly distinguish them apart at a 
short distance, were it not for the different colors. 
Apropos of these different colors, it might be well to 
warn the ittiaginative public ajgainst harboring the delusion 
that they can attend the trial races and experience no 
difficulty in distinguishing the boats by their colors 
throughout the race. The fact is, the boats should all 
have been named in the comparative degree instead of in 
the positive — all save the black. The black boat is really 
black; but the red is only redder than the others, and the 
green greener, while the white — well, the white isn't white 
at all ; she was hauled out last week and treated to a 
coat of shellac and ^now looks like a cross between the 
redder and the greener. 
This year's boats are all of a more serviceable appear- 
ance than those built for defenders during the past few 
years. They look stronger and heavier and more roomy. ■ 
yet those who should know say that they are the swiftest 
ever designed on Lake St. Louis. They are somewhat 
slower in stays, in all probability, but this is accounted 
for by the fact that their rudders are placed further aft 
in order to secure greater control. 
There has not been much change made in sail plan. 
The black and the green boats have practically the same 
canvas as the defenders of the past two years. The red 
and the white carry longer and lower canvas, more after 
the st3-le of Glencairn II., with a fore triangle of looft.. the 
other two boats having about 30 per cent, more in this 
respect. 
In point of hull design the green and the white bear a 
close resemblance. Their lines are sharper forward, and 
they have a draft of about 7in. each, the black and red 
boats being more of the moderate Skow design, with a 
draft of about oin. each. 
The green boat has the greatest breadth of anv of the 
defenders yet built. She is 8^ft. breadth and about 35ft. 
over all. the white boat being a similar length, but onlv 
about 8ft. breadth. The black boat is also 8ft., her length 
over all being about 34ft. and her waterline being 22i/4ft. 
The red boat is the longest and narrowest of the four 
being about 37ft. over all and 7ft. pin. breadth. 
This boat is a great favorite with the members of 
the club, but it is doubtful if she is as highly regarded by 
the committee. Some prefer the green, and there is an 
impression that she will be chosen. Others the white, and 
many regard the black as the best. $.ypxi the results of 
the actual tests are almost as undecided as the opinions 
of the members, and all agree that the choosing of the 
defender will be a most difficult operation. In fact, it 
appears to be more a question of crew than boat, inasmuch 
as in an afternoon's racing, with the crews changing from 
one boat to the other after each race, Duggan successively 
brought each boat in a winner. 
Up to July 9 seven races have been sailed in the Ross 
series, and the standing of the boats in points is close : 
Points. 
Glencairn IIII 19 
Red Coat 18 
White Cap 17 
Black Beauty 16 
The score of the dii¥erent crewS is as follows ; 
Points. 
Glencairn crew , 24 
Red Coat crew 21 
White Cap crew 14 
Black Beauty 10 
From the foregoing it will be seen that Mr. Duggan's 
crew has the most wins to its credit.
