Newpott Special Thirties. 
NEWPORT^ RHODE ISLAND^ 
Monday, July 27. 
The race sailed by the 30-footers on Monday proved 
to be an exciting one. The contest was marred by an acci- 
dent which narrowly missed being very serious. Vaquero 
III. was dismasted, but fortunately no one on board was 
inj ured. The accident was caused by the breaking of the 
boat's port spreader. A spreader also broke on Barbara 
which made it necessary for that boat to withdraw from 
the race. The contest was sailed in a heavy N. W. wind 
and the boats covered an eight mile triangular course. 
Yaquero HI. was in the weather berth when she lost her 
mast. The committee boat towed her into the harbor. 
When Barbara withdrew, Carolina was in the best posi- 
tion, which she held up to the finish. The summary, start

Tuesday, July 28. 
Four of the Newport Special Thirties and two of the 
Buzzard's Bay one-design boats raced on Tuesday for 
special cups. Mr. C. L. F. Robinson gave the trophy for 
Newport 30-footers, and the Regatta Committee of the 
New York Y. C. gave the cup for Buzzard's Bay boats, 
'i'he wind was fresh from the S. W., and the boats car- 
ried full sail. The course was from Brenton's Cove to 
Dyer's Island and return, a distance of 18 miles. This 
is the first time the boats of these two classes have met, 
and the Buzzard's Bay craft showed up to advantage in 
windward work. The winners were Vaquero III. and 
Mashnee. The summary:

Wednesday, July 29. 
The Newport Special Thirties and the Buzzard's Bay 
one-design boats raced against one another in one class 
on Wednesday for a cup offered by Commodore Frederick 
G. Bourne, N. Y. Y. C. Owing to the heavy S. W. wind 
that prevailed, the Regatta Committee contemplated post- 
poning the race, but as the owners of the boats were 
anxious to start, they were sent away promptly on time. 
The boats covered the Dyer's Island course, starting off 
P'ort Adams. It was a reach to the Jamestown mark, 
a run to Dyer's Island, and a beat back to the finish. The 
strong wind and heavy sea seemed to just suit the New- 
port Thirties, for they had no difficulty in beating the Buz- 
zard's Bay boats. The Newport boats showed up particu- 
larly well on the windward work, even though they were 
swinging full sail, while the Buzzard's Bay boats were 
reefed. Barbara broke her gaft' and withdrew. Carolina 
finished a winner by a comfortable margin, and Vaquero 
III. was second. . Carolina beat Mashnee 4m. 39s. The

Saturday, August i. 
Four of the 30-footers started in the race on Saturday. 
Mr. Pembroke Jones, owner of Carolina, and Mr. John R. 
Drexel exchanged boats and Mr. Jones won out handily. 
'J'here was a good whole sail breeze from the S. The 
course was to the compass buoy in Coddington Cove and 
return, a distance of six miles. This gave the boats a run 
out and a beat back. Vaquero III. led on the run, having 
been first over the starting line, but on the beat back 
Raccoon worked into the lead and crossed the finish line 
i8s. ahead of Barbara, the second boat. The summary,

YACHTING NEWS NOTES. 
For advertising relating to this department see pages ii and iii. 
Elsa II., the combination steam yacht and houseboat 
built from designs made by Messrs. Gardner & Cox for 
Mr. Evans R. Dick, of Philadelphia, was launched on 
July 20 from the yard of the builders, Messrs. James 
M. Bayles & Son, Port Jefferson, Long Island. The 
yacht is built of wood and is 113 ft. over all, 99 ft. 
waterline, 19 ft. breadth and 5 ft. 7 in. draught. She 
has twin screws, two four-cylinder triple expansion 
engines and two water tube boilers. Elsa II. is rather 
an unusual looking craft, with but little overhang for- 
ward, and considerable aft. There are two deckhouses 
and a single funnel. A single mast, used only for sig- 
naling, gives her rather a shippy appearance. The for- 
ward deckhouse is 19 ft. long and is used as a dining 
saloon; the after house is 16 ft. long and is fitted up as 
a library and lounging room. The galley, officers' and 
crew's quarters are forward, while the owner's apart- 
ments are aft. They consist of one double, stateroom 
for the owner, which extends across the boat, and two 
single staterooms and two bath rooms.

Mr. Harry Payne Whitney has ordered a houseboat 
built by the Wilson Yacht Building Co., Ferry Bar, 
Baltimore, Md. She will be 100 ft, in length and will 
be driven by gasolene engines. The boat will be 
launched during October and then be taken to Palm 
Beach, Florida.

A short time ago there was launched from the j^ard 
of the Nilsoii Yacht Building Co. the auxiliary schoon- 
er yacht built by that firm for Mr. George C. Thomas, 
Jr., of Philadelphia. The yacht was - named Ednada. 
She is built entirely of wood, the frames being of white 
oak and the planking of Georgia pine. Ednada is no 
ft. long, 20 ft. breadth and 6 ft. draught. 
ae It 
The fine auxiliary schooner Atlantic was finally 
launched on Tuesday, July 28, from the j'ard of the 
builders, Messrs. Townsend-Downey, Shooter's Island, 
S. I. The launching was marred by an accident that 
damaged the yacht somewhat. As she was sliding down 
the ways the hawser that held the cradle parted, and 
the yacht swept down the incline with a rush. She, 
collided with a barge and carried away her taffrail and 
stove in some of the plates in her after overhang. This 
will delay the w^ork of completing the yacht somewhat. 
Atlantic was built for Mr. William Marshall and she
