For Cruising Yachtsmen, 
With the purpose of stimulating the interest in cruis- 
ing, and the keeping of a detailed log by cruising yachts- 
men during the season of 1902, the publishers of Forest 
AND Stream offer prizes for the best stories of cruises 
submitted to be published in Forest and Stream. It is 
believed that these will form not only entertaining records 
of pleasant summer days spent afloat along our coasts and 
waterways, but will furnish information of practical value 
to other yachtsmen making subsequent cruises on the 
same waters. 
Prizes will be awarded to the three best stories as fol- 
lows : 
First prize, $50.00. 
Second prize, $30.00. 
Third prize, $20.00. 
Contributions are invited under the following condi- 
tions : 
1. The cruise must be made in waters of the United 
States or Canada in the season of 1902. 
2. The cruise must be made in a sailing yacht, power 
to be used only as an auxiliary, if at all. 
3. The story must be prefaced by a description of the 
boat. Cruises should be treated in as interesting and 
readable a way as possible, but should be practical and 
contain all possible information and data that would be of 
value to men going over the same route. A description 
of the handling of the ship in all weathers will be re- 
garded very favorably in making awards, and it is sug- 
gested to writers that an accurate account be kept of all 
incidents happening while under way. 
4. An outline chart suitable for, reproduction, showing 
the course taken, must accompany each article. When 
possible, articles should be accompanied by amateur photo- 
graphs taken on the cruise, including one of the boat. 
Good photographs will be considered in making the 
awards. 
5. The story should contain about seven thousand 
words, written on one side of the paper only, and must 
be received at the office of the Forest and Stream Pub- 
lishing Company, 346 Broadway, New York city, on or 
before Nov. 15, 1902. 
Mr. T, C. Zerega has very kindly consented to act as 
judge and to make the awards. 
American Y. C. 
MILTON POINT, LONG ISLAND SOUND. 
Thursday, Aug. 28. 
The regatta given by the American Y. C. on Thursday, 
.Aug. 28, was devoted entirely to one-design classes. Six 
Long Island Sound clubs were represented, and twent3r- 
cne boats started. The course for all classes was tri- 
angular from off the Scotch Caps Buoy, east northeast 
one and five-eighths miles around the Larchmont White 
Spar Buoy, off Parsonage Point, south one-half east one 
and five-eighths miles around a stakeboat, and west north- 
west one and five-eighths miles to the starting line. The 
distance was four and seven-eighths miles, and the course 
was sailed twice over by all the classes except the Man- 
hasset Bay and the Horseshoe Harbor boats. 
At the start the wind was fresh from the E.S.E., but 
during the afternoon it veered around to E. by N. 
Howdy and Hobo sailed a remarkably close race in the 
American Y. C. 21ft. class. At the end of the first round 
Howdy was ahead by only two seconds. On the last 
round Howdy slowly increased her lead and won by 37s. 
Three boats started in the Larchmont Y. C. 21ft. class. 
During the race Adelaide was in collision with Jolly Tar, 
and the former lost her bowsprit and withdrew. Mr. L. 
G. Spence, Adelaide's owner, protested Jolly Tar. 
Dorothy won in this class by 2m. 30s. In the American 
Y. C. 18ft. class, a close race was seen between Zelica III. 
and Mongoose III., the former boat being sailed by Mr. 
Hazen Morse and the latter by her owner, Mr. Simeon 
Ford. Mongoose III. was handicapped by getting a bad 
start, but at the end of the first round was on even 
terms with her competitor, and on the last round she 
worked slowly into the lead and won by the narrow 
margin of five seconds. Hustler tore her mainsail and 
withdrew. Only two of the Manhasset Bay Y. C. 18- 
footers turned up, Lambkin and Arizona. Just before the 
start for this class Arizona parted her throat halliards. 
Lambkin waited while repairs were made on Arizona. 
This delayed these boats so long that they were only able 
to sail once around the course. Lambkin won by 2m. 23s. 
Three of the New Rochelle one-design boats started and 
Caper won handily. Catherine and Indra started in the 
Horseshoe Harbor one-design class, and the former won 
by 2m. 35s. The Regatta Committee — Trenor L. Park, 
H. de B. Parsons, W. H. Browning and Stuyvesant Wain- 
wright, used Com. Eaton's yawl Audax as a judges' boat.

Friday, Aug. 29. 
There were twenty-nine starters in the open race of the 
American Y. C. held on Friday, Aug. 29. The wind was 
E. by S., with enough strength to make the racing in- 
teresting. The course was from the starting line, off 
Scotch Caps, leaving the committee boat on the port 
hand; thence southwest two and three-quarter miles to 
and around red and black horizontal striped buoy, to the 
northward of Execution Light, leaving same on port 
hand ; thence east by south, one-half sovith, three and 
one-half miles to and around Larchmont white spar buoy, 
off Red Springs Point, leaving same on port hand ; thence 
northwest by north, one-half north, three and one-quarter 
miles to the starting point, the total distance being nine 
and one-half miles. The course was sailed over twice by 
classes L, M and N. The others sailed once around, while 
the two special cats sailed to Execution Light and back. 
The first leg of the course was a reach, the second a beat 
to windward and the third another reach. 
The 43- footers were the first boats to start, but both 
Effort and Dorwina were slow in getting away. Dor- 
wina crossed ahead of Effort. The former boat held her 
lead until the windward leg, when Effort took first place. 
At the end of the first round Effort was nearly a minute 
ahead. The wind hauled a little, allowing these boats 
to carry spinnakers on the first leg of the second round. 
Effort continued to draw away from Dorwina and beat 
her on corrected time 5m. los. 
The .36-footers started in the following order : Leda, 
Spasm and Possum. They remained in this position all 
through the race and Leda won easily by 4m. and 4s. 
There were four starters in the 30ft. class. Mimosa led 
over the line, followed by Marguerite, Alerion and Helen. 
Mimosa and Alerion got into a luffing match and Mar- 
guerite took first place and led at the end of the first 
round. On the second round Mr. Edward M. McLellan, 
who was sailing Alerion, settled down to work and 
brought his boat in to the finish line far enough ahead 
to save the time he had to allow the other boats and win 
by im. 17s. 
Scamp led the other three raceabouts over the line, but 
on the windward work Mavis did good work, and passing 
.Scamp continued to increase her lead, and finally won by 
4m. 57s. 
Three of the Larchmont 21-footers started, Dorothy 
was first over the starting line and led all over the course. 
Lambkin scored another victory in the Manhasset Bay 
one-design class by beating Arizona 3m. 38s. 
The American Y. C. 21-footers sailed another close 
race. Jolly Tar won by 49s. In the Ainerican Y. C. i8ft. 
class Rattler.^won by im. 54s. 
The Race Committee was Trenor L. Park, H. de B. 
Parsons, H. Livingston Center and Cornelius Sewell.

mark Esperanza passed her and had the race well in hand 
when she was cut off by a tug that had a long tow of 
barges, and in this way lost the race. Carolina was
