work of Outlook on this last leg was very fast, and she 
gfOssed the line at 12 :32 :oo. with a lead of eight minutes 
6vei- ttades, which crossed at 12:40:00. It was a very 
decisive victory for Outiook, and cleatdy ddmonstrated 
1ier ability to travel very fast in light airs. The crew Ot

The third, arid what proved to be the final race Of tlle 
series, was sailed in a strong whole-sail breeze frorii 
the northeast. Both boats had full sad. arid both had 
flii tjiey coiild stagger to.from start to finish. At o o'dock 
there was a sH'orig puffy north^ wind blowing, and whei'I 
Outlook came down the fivef in tow of her tender, she 
had two reefs tucked in her mainsail arid a No. 2 jib on 
her bowsprit. About 9 o'clock the breeze moderated and 
"rir'a^ied cjown to a good whole-sail breeze, and when the 
crew on "MadeS hqistcd who]c mainsail and No. i jib at 
9:05, Outlook followed suih . and at 9:10 both _ boats 
, were sailing around under whole sail. At g,:i5 the judges 
on the Velthra sent up the signal for course No. a reach 
tS starboard off Hospital Point, another broader reach tO 
Gooseberry "Ledge, and a dead beat back to the finish line, 
a distance of nine and oiie-half knots. 
Promptlv at 9:30 the preparatory gUri was fired, and 
when the starting gun went at 9 :35 both boats daffle for 
{hg lilie with booms to port and a good move on. Out- 
look was to leeward, but, a little in the lead, and crossed 
the line at 9:35:14, with Hades on her weather quarter at 
9:35:2^. At once Outlook began to draw away, and 
although Hades had her weather hull well out, she could 
Hot seem to hold the scow, which was footing very fast 
and standing tip vVeli. Off Prides Rock the wind fresh- 
, ened a bit and the boats took on a little more heel, and 
moved very fast. Down for the Hospital point mark they 
went, the breeze freshening and coming iri stiff puffs off 
' the shore, and the boats going at such a rate that the 
.Stfeaffl teliders following them were unable to keep up the 
pace. At 16:66:65, Outlook gybed around the mark, and 
with boom ,to starboard started for tlle windward mark. 
The wav to Gooseberry Ledge had kriogkabouts, launches 
and sailboats all along, but none of theni were able to 
keep pace with the racers. Outlook continued td gairt 
steadily, and when she tacked around the windward mar1c 
for the' beat hSrile at 10:23:52, she had a lead of over 
seven minutes on HadeS. which followed suit af 10:31 :iS. 
The beat home was made in the best breeze of the day, 
and Outlook not only beat Hades badly, but made a very 
fast performance. She stood up well, pointed high, and 
footed very fast, easily dropping raceabouts and 25- 
feotefs, which were watching the race. She continued 
to gain ail the way to the mark, and crossed the finish 
line more than a rilile ahead of her rival Outlook 
crossed at 11 :oS -.44, with tlades at 11 :2s :o6. The victory 
was so decisive that the judges decided that there was no 
need of more trial races, and selected Outlook as de- 
fender. The summary:

Outlook's victory was a very popular one, as the oddit.y 
of the triple hull boat had caused much worriment and 
a little feeUrig oti the part of many. The owners of Hades 
frankly admitted that the boat had been merely an ex- 
periment, and that she was a failure. The trouble with 
Hades, in the writer's opinion. Is that in the first place 
her construction is such that even had her lines been 
good, the boat was imable to keep her shape. In the sec- 
ond place, the disturbance made between the three hulls 
by the water passing ra^jidly through, was so great that 
it must have retarded the boat greatly. Both boats had 
very good sails, those of Hades being made by Wilson & 
Sils'by, while Outlook carried a mainsail made by the same 
firm and a jib made by Cousens & Pratt, of Boston. Out- 
look's steel truss has proved a great success— in fact, her 
construction is in every way good and fitted to stand the 
■ great strains put on a boat of this kind. On Thursday 
morning after the final race a new mainsail made by 
Cousens & Pratt was tried on Outlook. It is made of 
lighter material than the Wilson sail, and seems to be 
far better in Hght airs, and just as rigid in the stronger 
breezes. A new silk jib has been ordered from Cousens 
& Pratt to use in extremely light weather. Outlook will 
be tuned up the rest of the week and hauled out to pot 
I lead for the cup races on Saturday.

PORT WASHINGTOPf, LOKa tStAND SOUND. 
Friday, Aug. i. 
The first of the two days' racing given by the Man- 
hasset Bay Y. C. was devoted entirely to one-design 
boats. Twenty:slx boats started in the seven different 
classes. Coiti. Stephen W- Roach's flagship Emeline was 
tuthed over to the newspaper men, and the Regatta Com- 
mittee, which is made up of EdAvard MacLellan, Charles 
t). Mower, Robert Jacob and George Bowles. 
There was a good sailing breeze from the south. The 
American Y. C. one-design boats and the Larchmont one- 
design boats sailed over a triangular course of eleven 
miles. All the other boats, with the exception of the 
dories, sailed over a triangular course of nine and one- 
half miles. 
The pfeparatory signal was given at 2 o'clock, and the 
Affie'fieafl and Larchmont one-design boats were sent 
away five ffliflUtes later at 2:05. The American Y. C. 
boats got away in a bunch, and at the first mark were still 
close' together. On the windward work, however, The 
Kid took the lead and was never headed. In the Larch- 
mont Y. C. dass, Dorothy, well handled by her owner, 
Mr. H. T. Spence, made an excellent showing, and de- 
feated Houri by nearly six minutes. 
Three of the New Rochelle Y. C. boats turned up, Ace 
beating Kliave out and Caper coming in last. 
Some good racing was seen in the Manhasset Bay one- 
design class. Pup, the new boat in the class, owned by 
Mr. T. W. Ratsey, created quite a sensation with her red 
sails. She did not show up very well, but this was her 
first ract!. Lambkin, Com. Roach's boat, won by over 
four minutes. 
Only one of the Afdsley one-design boats turned up, 
but she sailed over the course. 
In the Huguenot Y. C. dory class/ Prize won, beat- 
ing Ketch II, by nearly half an hour. 
After a close race in the Pelham Country Club class 
Echo won from Gloria by thirty-two seconds. The sum-

Saturday, Aug. 2. 
Saturday was the day set aside for the annual regatta 
of the Manhasset Bay Y. C. Nearly eighty boats were 
entered for the race, but owing to the very light breeze 
in the morning many of them found it impossible to get 
to the line in time to start. The boats in the 36 and 30ft. 
classes sailed over a course nineteen miles long. All the 
rest of the boats, with the exception of the larks, dories 
and naval reserve cutters, sailed over a nine and a half 
mile course, while these latter boats covered a four-mile 
course. At the time of the start the wind was light from 
the southwest. Shortly after the start a squall broke out 
of the northwest, many of the boats carrying sail through 
it, however, although some of the smaller craft lowered 
away. After' the squall the wind backed around to the 
southwest again, and during the last part of the race 
freshened up to a good sailing breeze. 
Com. Roach's steam yacht Emeline was again used as 
the committee boat. 
The two 43-footers Effort and Dorwina arrived late, but 
the Regatta Committee were ready to give them a race. 
Dorwina's owner was not satisfied with the arrangements 
made and would not start. This left Effort without a 
competitor, and this boat not wishing to take a sailover, 
did not cross the starting line. Mira was at Greenport 
preparing for the New York Y. C. cruise, and conse- 
quently could not get to Manhasset. Challenge, the other 
43-footer. has been taken back to the lakes by her owner. 
Leda was the only starter in the 36ft. class, and she 
sailed over the course alone. 
In the 30ft. class Alerion, Marguerite and Mimosa 
started. Mimosa soon worked into first place and beat 
Marguerite by over two minutes. 
Five boats started in the raceabout class. Rogue, well 
sailed by Mr. A. B.^ Alley, led Hobo, the second boat, 
over the finish line by over five minutes. 
In the Larchmont 21ft. class only two boats started, 
Adelaide and Houri. The former won by over three 
minutes. 
Montauk in class Q had matters pretty much her own 
way, and won with ease. 
In the New Rochelle one-design class Ace again won. 
In the light air the New Rochelle boats made better time 
over the course than did the Manhasset boats. In the 
Manhasset one-design class Firefly won, although Lamb- 
kin pushed her hard for first place. Mary Baker No. 3 
won in the Ardsley one-design class by over two minutes. 
Mr. Robert Jacob's new sloop Eleanor, which is fitted 
with red sails like Mr. Ratsey's Pup, did not do very well 
ip class Mr- Thomas Clapham's Jag^ won in this clasg, 
A special class was made up for Scoot and Plover, the 
former winning by a small margin. 
Gloria won in the Pelham Country Club lark class. 
Only one boat finished in the Huguenot dory class. 
In the Naval Reserve cutter class five boats started, but 
only one finished. The summary :
