Hauoli. 
1h this issue appears the cabin plans and a photograph 
of the steam yacht designed by Mv. Henry J. Gielow and 
built by the John N. Robins Co., Erie Basin, South 
Brooklyn, this year for Mr. F. M. Smith, owner of the 
successful 43-footer Effort. The yacht was remarked 
last summer wherever she went for her hmidsome ap- 
pearance and for the clean way she left the water when 
running at high speed. Her prinicpal dimensions fol- 
low : 
Length — 
all •. i53ft 7m. 
„ ' i22ft.»,3in. 
Breadth — 
Extreme : 17ft. Oin. 
Depth— 
Amidships gft. 8in. 
Draft 6ft. g\„. 
Hauoli was built in the best possible manner under Mr. 
Gielow's direct supervision, and as a result only the best 
material was used in the yacht's construction. Hauoli 
has four watertight bulkheads and a double bottom, which 
can be used for fresh water tanks or for water ballast. 
The two deck houses are of mahogany and are each 
22ft. long. In the forward house is the dining saloon 
and pantry. Fourteen /persons can be accommodated at 
table in the dining saloon. The butler's pantry is fitted 
with refrigerator, sink, dressers, racks and dumb waiter 
connecting with the galley, which is just below. The 
after deck house is used as a .sort of general living room. 
Here is a piano, wide sofas on either side, and on the 
forward partition there is a folding berth. In the for- 
v/ard end of the deck house there is a dressing room and 
a lavatory. 
The machinery space and boiler room is amidships, sepa- 
rated from the rest of the vessel by steel bulkheads. In 
order to deaden sound and reduce the heat, a wide air 
space is fitted at the after end with several asbestos bulk- 
heads and smaller air spaces between, all arranged with 
ventilator hoods on deck in order to produce a satisfac- 
tory circulation of air. 
Aft of the engine space are two large staterooms, one 
for the owner and one for his wife. These rooms are 
fitted up in a most complete and comfortable manner. On 
the starboard side aft is another stateroom of good size, 
and aft of this is a bathroom and a toilet room. On 
the port side opposite are two roomy staterooms. The 
main saloon is aft and is 12ft. long, wide transoms extend 
along each side, while aft on either hand are closets and 
sideboards. A wide companionway leads to the deck. On 
each side of the companionway are fresh-water tanks. 
Forward of the engine space is the galley, which is 
quite roomy and extends the full width of the vessel. On 
the port side is a large refrigerator and cold closet, and 
on the starboard side are the racks, sink, dresser and 
dumb waiter. A large stove is placed against the steel 
bulkhead aft. Forward of the galley are two staterooms, 
one on each side of the passage, the one to starboard for 
the captain, and the one to port for the engineer. For- 
ward of these rooms is the forecastle, which is roomy, and 
there is ample accommodation for the ten men who live 
there. On the port side of the forecastle forward is a 
toilet room and a big closet. Forward of this is a state- 
room with two bunks for the stewards. In the eyes of 
the boat there is storage space for paints, oils, etc. 
All the interior woodwork is enamel white with ma- 
hogany doors and trim, giving a very light, neat and 
substantial finish. 
All the plumbing is of the most approved kind, and 
arrangements were made for hot, cold, fresh and salt 
baths. The yacht is lighted throughout by electricity, 
and in addition there is a searchlight and fans. A storage 
battery insures light at all times. 
The engine is of the four-cylinder triple expansion 
type, and it was designed by Mr. Gielow. There are two 
boilers of the water tube pattern. 
On a six-hour test Hauoli averaged over eighteen miles, 
and under forced draft she has made over twenty miles. 
Report of Committee on Measure- 
ment of the New York Y, C. 
We publish herewith the report of the Committee on» 
Measurement. The committee was appointed- by Com.. 
Ledyard at the first general meeting, held Feb. 13, 1902,, 
and was made up of the following gentlemen : S. Nichol- 
son Kane (chairman), C. Oliver Iselin, W. Butler Dun- 
can, Jr., A. Cass Canfield, Henry F. Lippitt, John F. Love- 
joy, Oliver E. Cromwell, Newbury D. Lawton, Archibald 
Rogers, E. D. Morgari and George A. Cormack (secre- 
tary). The first meeting of the committee was held on 
Feb. 27, 1902, and from that time until the last Thursday 
night, Oct. 23, when the report was adopted by the club 
members, these gentlemen have devoted much time and 
labor tO' the questian. 
From the time the committee first met and it was de- 
cided to consult the most prominent designers and mathe- 
maticians in the United States, England, Canada, Aus- 
tralia, France, Germany, Denmark, Norway and Sweden, 
they have kept constantly in touch with them, and as the 
work progressed and developed, they were notified. In 
almost every instance the men consulted by the committee 
gave all the assistance within their power. Remarkable 
as it may seem, nearly all the designers were in accord as 
to what a rating rule should be, and without exception 
they all advocated displacement as a factor in the formula. 
Nearly all recommended that the three factors of the 
formula should be length, sail area and displacement. 
It was then the committee's work to put these factors into 
a formula that was mathematically correct. 
The present rule is a designer's rule pure and simple, 
and when it is seen that it is the result of the experience, 
both theoretical and practical, of such able men as 
Nathaniel G. Herreshoff, Bristol, R. I. ; A. Gary Smith, 
New York, N. Y. ; William Gardner, New York, N Y ■
