Boston Y. C. 
BOSTON AND MARBLEHEAD, MASS. 
Annual Cruise. 
The first squadron run of the Boston Y. C, from City 
Point to Marblehead, was sailed Saturday, June 14, in a 
light easterly breeze. Nineteen yachts crossed the starting 
line, and there were several other yachts, both sail and 
steam, accompanied the fleet. The fleet was divided into 
three classes, one embracing the available Y. R. A. 21- 
footers and the other two handicap classes. There was 
little or no breeze at the start, and what there was came 
directly ahead. This, with a head tide, running strong, 
made the success of the run look doubtful at first. The 
slower handicap class was sent away first, so that the 
fleet might reach port as nearly as possible together. In 
the A class, handicap, was the new 25-footer Sally VI., 
and, despite the fact that she started out after the other 
class, it was not long before she took the lead. Quivette, 
a heavy cruiser, held Sally VI. and Thordis, in the class 
above "her, for a long time, but this was entirely due to 
the cleverness of her skipper, Vice-Com. Walter Burgess, 
in working the tides. The tide was strongest when the 
fleet reached Broad Sound, and the breeze was very 
light. It hauled a point or two to the southward, how- 
ever, giving all hands a chance to work through the tide. 
Sally VI. was out of the tide rip first, and, while the 
others were battling through it, she was laying her course 
to Marblehead Rock. All hands kept the breeze and took 
it down with them to Tinker's Island, where it again fell 
and kept some of the boats out until long after the time 
limit had expired. Sally VI. came in far ahead of the 
bunch. The summary :

Sunday, June 15. 
The second squadron run of the Boston Y. C. fleet, from 
Marblehead to Gloucester, was made on Sunday, June 15. 
It was a most disagreeable day, smoky and raining during 
most of the morning and part of the afternoon. To add 
to the discomfort, there was scarcely a breath of air in 
the morning, at the time scheduled for the start, and the 
fleet was obliged to remain in Marblehead Harbor until 
the afternoon, when a very light breeze came in from the 
eastward. The run to Gloucester was then made in slow 
time. As much time was consumed on this run as would 
have been in running to the same port from Boston in a 
good chance. Sally VI. again led the fleet. The sum- 
mary : 
Class S — 21-footers.

The evening of the first day's run was made memorable 
by the formal opening of the new station of the club at 
Marblehead. The yachts cruising carried full crews, and 
there were many who came down from Boston by trait]
