TWENTY-ONE-FOOT OPEN LAUNCH— DESIGNED BY SMALL BROS. 
Long Island Sound Champions. 
The championship winners for the Long Island Sound 
Y.. R. A. races of last season have just been announced, 
and while the records may be slightly changed with the 
decisions on some protests which have not yet been set- 
tled,^ it is not likely that there will be any change in the 
class champions, which are as follows : 
43ft. Class— Effort, F. M. Smith, owner. 
36ft. Class — Leda, Harry Maxwell, owner. 
30'ft. Class — Mimosa, T. L. Park, owner. 
2ift. Class— Gazaboo, H. C. Vulte, owner. 
i8ft. Class — Cricket, Harold Pryor, owner, 
Raceabout Class — Whistlewing, H. M. Crane, owner. 
Larchmont 21ft. Class^ — Adelaide, J. J. Dwyer, owner. 
■ Manhasset one-design — Bob, J. M. Hoyt, owner. 
New Rochelle one-design — Knave, R. U. Bavier, owner. 
These championships are announced subject to correc- 
tion. on the receipt of official reports from two important 
clubs... These reports are withheld for the time being, be- 
cause certain protest cases have not yet been decided. To 
qualify for championship a yacht must sail on at least 
one-half the racing days on which championship races are 
indicated in the association schedule. In every race a 
yachtj is credited with a point for every yacht she de- 
f€at$, and one additional point as a premium for complet- 
ing the race. At the end of the season the number of 
points to a yacht's credit is ascertained and the per cent, 
whicjii this number is of the number she would have had 
if she had won every race in which she started, is her 
championship record. 
Effort was the only yacht to qualify in the 43ft. class, 
sailing in twelve of the sixteen races given and scoring 
first place in five races, second in two races, third in one 
race and two sail overs. She has' 20 points out of a possi- 
ble 26 and a percentage of 77- 
In the 36ft. class Leda won seven of the ten races in 
which she sailed, scoring 26 points out of a possible 29 
and having a percentage of 89.6. Spasm, E. L. King; 
Empress, G. M. Heckscher and Possum, E. S. Ballon, also 
qualified. The racing in the 30ft. class was very close 
between Mimosa, Alerion and Marguerite, all of which 
qualified. Mimosa won 8 of the 16 races she sailed, get- 
ting 47 points out of a possible 57, and a percentage of 
52.4. Alerion's percentage was 72.4 and Marguerite's 
70.6. 
In the 21 ft. class of sloops H. G. Vulte's Gazaboo was 
the only one to qualify. She sailed in 13 races, made 23 
points out of a possible 45, and her percentage was 51. 
In the i8ft. sloop class. Cricket, owned by Harold Pryor, 
son of ex-Commodore Pryor, of the New Rochelle Y. C, 
was alone in qualifying. She sailed in 13 races and made 
24 points out of a possible thirty-seven. Her percentage 
was 65. 
In the 25ft. sloop class, the 43 and' 36ft. yawl classes, 
and the several catboat classes no yachts qualified for 
championships. The hottest contest of all was in the 
raceabout class. There were 18 race days. J. T. Pirie's 
Scamp sailed on 13; Gordon Pirie's Mavis on 17, T. B. 
Bleecker's Jolly Roger on 12, and A. Bryan Alley's Snap- 
per, H. M. Crane's Whistlewing, and Trenor L. Park's 
Hobo on 9 each. The record, as it stands at present, 
shows Whistlewing to be champion, with a record of 51 
points out of a possible 58 and a percentage of 87.9. The 
official returns, now lacking, may make something of a 
change in this resord, however. Scamp's percentage was 
38.5, that of Mavis 64.1, Jolly Roger's 67.1, Snapper's 
41.7, and Hobo's 52. In the Larchmont 21ft. one-design 
class J. J. Dwyer's Adelaide won the championship, with 
a score of 13 points out of a possible 15 and a percentage 
of 87, against 10 points out of 17 and a percentage of 59 
for J. H. Esser's Houri. Bab, owned by John R. Hoyt, 
is champion of the Manhasset Bay one-design class. She 
made 26 points out of .a possible 29 and a percentage of 
80.7. Her nearest competitor was Commodore Stephen 
W. Roach's Lambkin, which has a record of 26 points 
out of 33 and a percentage of 79. In the New Rochelle 
one-design class, R. U. Bavier's Knave is the champion. 
She sailed in every race given for her class — eleven in 
all — won ten of them, and finished second in the 
eleventh, having been defeated in that race by Ace, 
owned b)'' Mr. Bavier's younger brother. Knave's record 
is 38 points out of 39 and a percentage of 97.4. Ace and 
P. L. Howard's Caper also sailed in every race, and made 
22 and 18 points, respectively, in a possible 39. 
About 160 yachts competed in some degree in the 
championship contests in the several classes, but only 
25 yachts qualified in all. 
2J-Foot^ Open Launch.
