been, for some good sportsman to fit out this interesting 
vessel, but Mr. Coates has no intention of so doing,"

The Clyde correspondent of the Yachting World, 
Jan. 31, says: "The refitting of Mrs. Goelet's steam yacht 
Nahma is now nearly completed, and she is expected to 
leave here for Japan in the course of a week or two."

"The fact that Messrs. Henderson have discontinued 
building the first-class cutter of Mr. Watson's design, 
which was intended either for the King or the German 
Emperor," says the Yachtsman, Jan. 31, "is now ex- 
plained by the knowledge that the late Queen was known 
to be in failing health for some considerable time. Ob- 
viously the matter had no more connection with the Y. 
R. A. fiasco than the absurdly suggested visit of the King 
to New York."

Of the Fife designed and built 65-foot rater, the Senta, 
which Mr. Howard Hinkle, of Cincinnati, purchased 
some time ago through Messrs. Gardner & Cox, of this 
city, the Field (Jan. 26) says: 
"i?he Senta left Southampton on Jan. 22 for New York. 
She fitted out at the yard of White Brothers, Itchen 
Ferry, who have given her weather boards about three 
feet high, supported by iron stanchions, and running 
from the stemhead to the sternpost, while there is an 
awning for the skjdights, so that these may_be kept open 
even in bad weather. The Senta goes out with her racing 
mast stepped, with a gafT trysail, jib and staysail, and 
large square sail for running. Her racing sails and gear 
have been sent by steamer Bermuda, but her spars still 
remam with White Brothers, the order to ship them hav- 
ing been countermanded. The crew — eight or nine all 
told — are Dutch and Scandinavian. The skipper, Essen, 
stated that he intended to go south until he fell in with 
fine weather, and was confident of making a quick pas- 
sage. When the Senta left Southampton the weather 
was fine, and, the wind afterward coming easterly, it was 
anticipated that .she would have a good run down Chan- 
nel; but in going down the Solent she got aground on 
Pennington Spit, near Lj-mington, and had to return to 
Southampton to be docked for a survey before again 
porceeding on her journey across the Atlantic. It is 
rumored that there is something wrong with her rudder." 
Messrs. Gardner & Cox have been informed that the 
survey alluded to has been made, and the yacht was found 
to be uninjured.

"The prospective defender for the Canada cup, now 
being built by the Milwaukee Construction Co., after 
designs by N. H. McGregor, will be launched about May 
i, and will be known as the isTordberg boat. Her dimen- 
sions are: Length over all, 43ft.; waterline length, 27it. ; 
beam, 9ft. 6in.; draft, 6ft. gin. The sail spread will be 
about 1,225ft., of which 950ft. will be in the mainsail and 
276 in the jib. The spinaker will contain 540ft., and the 
balloon jib 475ft. There will be no topsails. The framing 
will be of white oak and the planking of cedar. She will 
carry outside ballast in the form of a bulb weighing 
5,700 pounds. It is probable that the sails will be made 
by Carpenter, in Chicago. Of the five yachts now in 
sight for the trial races, three will be classified- as keel 
boats and the remaining two as centerboards.
