archmont Y. C. Race Week. 
'.ARCHMONT, LONG ISLAND SOUND, 
Saturday, July 4. 
The first day of race week at Larchmont began on 
Saturday, July 4, and on that day the annual regatta was 
sailed. The weather conditions were good, and there was 
a good list of starters. 
The wind at the start was S. S. W., but later hauled to 
W. S. W. The course was a ten and three-quarter mile 
triangle. The first leg was from the starting line E. _N. 
E., three miles to and around a buoy oft Parsonage Point, 
thence S. three and seven-eighths miles to and around a 
buoy off Red Springs Point, thence N. W. three and 
seven-eighths miles back to the starting line. Boats in 
classes I and J covered this course three times. 
The preparatory signal was heard at noon, and at 12:10 
sloops in class J were started. Weetamoe had no com- 
petitor, and she covered the course and took a sail over 
prize. 
The interest of the day was centered in Aspirant, the 
new boat Mr. William Gardner designed for the Hanan 
boys. She was only launched on Thursday last, and on 
her maiden race beat Mimosa 11. over eight minutes 
elapsed time. 
As Aspirant and Mimosa II. were not designed under 
the Larchmont Y. C. rule, they had to sail in a special 
class, while Effort and Mira sailed in the regular 43ft 
class. However, all four boats started on the same whis- 
tle, and Effort beat Mimosa, boat for boat, over the 
course. 
Aspirant was sailed^by the Hanan boys, Mimosa 11. 
was handled by her owner, Mr. Trenor L. Park. Mr. A. 
H. W. Johnson steered Mira, while Mr. Albert B. Hunt 
had the stick on Effort. Aspirant got the start, with 
Mimosa II. next. Mira was third over the line, with 
Effort well behind, but to windward. It was a reach to 
the first mark ix^d Aspirant was first around. On the 
second leg, which was a beat, Effort caught and passed 
Mira, while Mimosa II. got away from Aspirant. 
Aspirant got the best of a shift of wind and again worked 
into the lead and was never headed. On the second time 
around Effort, by setting a spinnaker, caught Mimosa II. 
at the first mark, and the Crowninshield production could 
not catch her from that time on, although the boats* were 
only separated by a few seconds at the finish. Unfor- 
tunately for Effort, the wind had shifted so that there 
was no windward work on the second I'ound, otherwise 
she would have beaten Mimosa II. by a good margin. 
Beating is her strong point, particularly in a breeze, but 
it is not expected that she can reach with boats five or six 
feet longer on the waterline, built three years later with 
new and larger suits of sails. 
In class M there were three starters. Breeze, Leda and 
Spasm. Leda, tht smartest boat of the three, had the 
worst of the luck, and was the last to finish. Breeze got 
the race. 
In class M yawls. Tern had matters all her own way, 
and defeated her only competitor with ease, 
Oiseau turned tables on Alert in class N, and beat her 
over a minute elapsed time. No corrected time was given 
out by the committee, but it is likely that Alert won. 
Flosshilde withdrew. 
Rochelle won in the 25ft. class, although a shift of wind 
put Chingachgook, which was leading at one time, well 
behind, and she was third to finish. 
The C. F. Herreshoff 25 ft. one design boats started at 
the same time the regular 30-footers did, but they were 
hopelessly beaten by the latter boats. 
Two match races were sailed, one between Isolde and 
Eelin and the other between Challenge and Hebe. Isolde 
won easily, beating Eelin by nearly five minutes, while 
Challenge beat Hebe, which is now in heavy cruising trim, 
badly.

American Y» C 
MILTON POINT, LONG ISLAND SOUND, 
Friday, July 3. 
The annual regatta of the American Y. C. was held on 
Friday, July 3. Twenty-three yachts started, and all but 
one finished. The day was an ideal one, and a good 
southerly breeze held throughout the race. All the boats 
covered triangular courses. 
The two sixties, Weetamoe and Neola, were sent away 
at 12:4.0, ten minutes after the preparatory. Shortly after 
crossing the starting line, Neola met with an accident 
that made it necessary for her to withdraw from the con- 
test. The topmast on Neola was held by a metal casting. 
There was a flaw in this and it broke when subjected to 
a strain. The topmast slipped down a few inches, which 
allowed all the stays to become slack, and when the spar 
was thus without support snapped and fell off to leeward. 
I'he boat was brought up in the wind and the wreckage 
cleared away. No one was hurt, and she proceeded to 
City Island to make repairs. Neola has been the unlucky 
boat in this class, and she has met with several accidents. 
Vvhen Neola withdrew, Weetamoe was without a competi- 
tor, and was forced to sail over the course alone. 
There were four starters in the 43ft. class. Mimosa II. 
and Effort had a rather close race, but the former boat 
won by less than three minutes. Mira beat Hebe by a 
good margin. 
At 12 :45 boats in the 30ft. class were sent away. There 
were only two starters, Flosshilde and Mimosa, and the 
former boat won by less than two minutes. 
In the raceabout class four boats started. Mavis won 
by less than a minute from Jolly Tar, the second boat. 
Houri, one of the Larchmont 21-footers, was disquali- 
fied for fouling one of the marks. The summary follows:

Atlantic Y. C 
SEA GATE, LONG ISLAND., 
Saturday, July 4. 
The Atlantic Y. C. held open races for classes J and 
under on the afternoon of July 4 over the usual courses 
m the lower bay. The regatta was sailed in a light wind, 
and boats known to be fast in such conditions were gen- 
erally victorious. Eighteen started the contest, all but 
one of which finished. 
Had the breeze held strong and true throughout the 
event, a most mteresting race would have resulted. To- 
ward the latter part the wind fell from seven knots to 
not more than four. This made the finishes slow and 
lacknig spirit. Class N boats going outside to West Bank 
Light and return from the start off Sea Gate were sent 
over the journey but once. The other boats went twio- 
over a course from the start to marks off Fort Hamilton 
Marine and Field Club and Ulmer Park. 
Before the race much interest was centered in the com- 
petition for the 30-footers Bobtail, Bagheera and Vivian 
II. In the faint zephyr stirring Bobtail ran away from 
the others, and when the race was ended after one round 
of about 5% miles, led Bagheera by 6m. and Vivian II. 
by 12m. los. These boats had close hauled work out to 
West Bank Light and a broad reach home. 
_ In class P, Vagabond gave the other boats a bad drub- 
bing, defeating Karma i6m. 4s., Cockatoo i6m 34s., 
Ogeemah 17m. 3Ss., Corona 21m. 35s., and Kate 21m. sos. 
Kate was given an allowance of a minute a mile, which 
m.ade her corrected time the second best of the class. 
In class Q, the old rivals Spots, Wraith and Wink 
met. The latter was poorly handled, and made a weak 
showing. Spots beat Wraith 5m. 15s., and Wink 22m. 
Six is-footers started, an unusual number for this 
smallest sloop class. A new creation named Apuka II. 
sailed her first race on Gravesend Bay and won. Peanut 
made her initial appearance of the year, but did not finish. 
Boats sailing the inside courses had a spinnaker run to 
Fort Hamilton, a reach to the Marine and Field mark, 
M'indward work to Ulmer Park and still more on the Is'"'' 
home to the start off Sea Gate. After the racers had 
rounded the buoy off the Fort the second time the breeze 
fell and they had hard work getting home. The sum-

buoy, thence around buoy at southern end of Riker's
