determine the small wave resistance, and small loss of 
power, due to the fact that the stream lines are not 
required, as in the common form, to follow a line of 
continually changing direction. Under the flat, broad 
run of the boat at the stern, the run to the propeller 
is entirely free and undisturbed. The rudder will be 
very effective, owing to the presence of but very little 
deadwood, and the boat will be able to turn around in 
a circle of about two boat lengths. Although this boat 
has but 4ft. beam, it will have a most unusual degree 
of stability, owing to the width of the waterline aft. 
The stem will be given a long rake and overhang for- 
ward. The boat will be steered with horizontal, auto- 
mobile steering wheel just aft of engine, and steersman 
can sit on cross seat above mentioned and steer, and 
send the boat ahead or astern by meano of lever close at 
hand, or can start, stop, or regulate the speed of engine 
by means of throttle lever, which will also be handy. 
She will also have a whistle, the pressure to operate 
same will be taken from the engine. . This is done by 
taking a little of the exploded gas, under high pres- 
sure in one of the cylinders at every stroke, and storing 
it up in a tank at nearly the pressure of the explosion 
in the cylinder. This tank is connected to the whistle, 
and the pressure of gas contained therein is always 
handy whenever it is desirable to blow the whistle. This 
boat will be used in the waters around Norfolk and 
Old Point Comfort, Va.
