New York Y. C 
New York Lower Qay, Thursday, June 16. 
The fifty-eighth aanual regatta of the New York Y. C. was 
sailed over courses on the Lower Bay on Thursday, June lo. 
There were but six starters, and had it not been for a few sport- 
ing owners like Messrs. Lippett, Pynchon and Hoyt, who are 
the life of the big boat racing to-day, the event would have 
been a flat failure. In the schooner class the famous old schooner 
Lasca was pitted against the cruising auxiliary Seneca. Vivia;n 
II. was to have raced against Surprise, but this boat did not 
materialize, so Vivian II. competed with Weetamoe, Neola and 
Isolde for a special prize. 
Members of the New York Y. C. watched the race from the 
steamer Cepheus, and a few steam yachts also followed the boats 
over the course. The starting line was at buoy 13, just below 
the Narrows. The regatta committee, composed of Messrs. S. 
Nicholson Kane, Newbury D. Lawton and Oliver Cromwell, 
were on board the tug Unique. 
The starting signal for the sloops was given at 11:45. Weeta- 
moe crossed in the weather berth on the port tack; Neola was 
close on her lee quarter. Vivian II. was some distance behind 
and Isolde last. The wind was from the S.S.E. and did not 
have much weight. 
In the schooner class Seneca was first away. She got a good 
start and crossed with good headway on. Lasca was some dis- 
tance behind, moving slowly, there hardly being wind enough to 
drive her fast. The first mark was a mark boat of¥ Southwest 
Spit, and it took a long and a short leg to fetch. From South- 
west Spit to Sandy Hook light vessel it was a close reach. Baby 
jib topsails had been broken out on the two bronze boats, Weeta- 
moe and Neola. Weetamoe made a short hitch and gained on 
Neola. The boats had a fair tide under them, and the wind 
shifted a little enabling them to lay their course to the mark 
off Southwest Spit, which they rounded as follows: 
Weetamoe 12 37 25 Vivian II 12 58 00 
Neola 12 4110 Seneca 1 03 00 
Isolde 12 44 50 Lasca 1 05 00 
As"^ the boats got beyond the point of the Hook they felt the 
breeze more, which was Just forward of the beam. Weetamoe 
continued to pull away from Neola, and Neola dropped Isolde. 
Vivian II. was hanging on and doing well. Lasca did better in the 
stronger breeze and walked away from Seneca smartly. The boats 
were timed as follows at the light vessel: 
Weetamoe 1 36 35 Lasca 2 01 35 
Neola 1 38 30 Seneca 2 01 50 
Isolde 1 47 25 Vivian II 2 05 05 
Balloon jib topsails were broken out and the boats made fast 
time, even though they were bucking the tide. The huge light 
sails on the bigger boats lifted them along at a pace that left 
Vivian II far out of it. There was no change in positions on 
this leg, and the boats gybed around the Southwest Spit as 
follows : 
Weetamoe 2 46 15 Lasca 3 04 30 
Neola 2 50 45 Seneca 3 13 00 
Isolde 3 01 10 
Spinnakers were set to starboard on all the boats. A squall 
that had been making in the N.W. began to kill the wind. 
Weetamoe crossed the finish line just as the wind gave out 
entirely, and she anchored in order that the tide would not 
carry her back again. Neola was at this time less than 2m. be- 
hind, but when the wind drooped Ihe strong ebb tide carried 
her back stern first, and it took her 22m. to cross the line. The 
squall upset evervthing, for up to the time the wind dropped 
Isolde had a good chance of wintiing the Bennett cup. 
Lasca had nearly finished when the wind and rain squall broke 
■ from the W. and S. Seneca caught the wind and _ came up on 
. Lasca at a smart clip, finishing a little over 4m. behind her. The 
schooners had not been measured, so no corrected time is given. 
Lasca won by 4m 13s. elapsed time. 
For the regatta prize sloops, Weetamoe won, beating Neola 
83m. 14s. on corrected time, and beating Isolde 28m. 7s. Neola 
allowed Weetamoe 47s., and Isolde 12m. 35s. 
For the Bennett cup, Weetamoe won, defeating Neola by 23m. 
14s., and beating Isolde 18m. 55?. corrected time. For the 
special prize of the sloops. Weetamoe was also a winner, 
with Isolde second, and Neola third. The summary is as 
follows:

Lysistfata Cap Race. 
Sandy Hook, Saturday, June 18. 
The long anticipated steam yacht race for the Lysistrata cup, 
presented to the New York Y. C. in 1903 by James Gordon 
■ Bennett, occurred off Sandy Hook on Saturday, June 18. Henry 
H. Rogers' Kanawha, defender of the trophy, had no difficulty 
in defeating the challenger, F. M. Smith's Hauoli, by 3m. and 
29s. over a course of sixty nautical miles. No more exciting 
event of the kind has ever taken place in the annals of yacht- 
ing history. Over the starting line slightly in advance of her 
opponent the defending yacht gradually forged to the front, until 
at the end of ten minutes' time she had a lead of fuUv two 
lengths. In five minutes more this had been increased to double 
the distance. At the end of half an hour Kanawha was leading 
Hauoli by nearly a third of a mile. 
Then came a period when those on board the yacht, which 
eventually crossed the finish line a winner, became worried at 
the game fight offered by Hauoli. The challenger was holding 
her own well, and at times seemed to be gaining slightly. The 
feeling of uncertainty was further increased at the outer mark, 
when the pursuing craft cut in close to the stake boat and gained 
nearly a half minute thereby. There was then an official dif- 
ference of only 56s., and with thirty miles to go before the finish. 
Victory did not seem too well assured. 
Straightened out for home, after the turn, however, Kanawha 
let out a link of latent speed. In slow and impressive manner 
she drew away from her worthy antagonist, and with two-thirds 
of the journey covered it was evident that nothing short of an 
accident could defeat the Rogers boat. As smoothly as a willow 
whistle slips worked the powerful machinery until the end. 
Kanawha crossed the finish line amid the echomg salutes of sur- 
rounding steam yachts, still the speediest pleasure craft of her 
type afloat. 
No one who witnessed the grand struggle would hesitate to 
assign second place in the list of speed boats to Hauoli, which 
can undoubtedly defeat any craft of her own size and power in 
existence to-day. One of the important conditions governing 
the Lysistrata cup is_, however, that the yachts must compete 
boat for boat without time allowance of any kind. Hauoli, with her 
single screw, more graceful but smaller hull and less power, had 
to give way to the larger and more capable Kanawha with her 
two propellers, which proved their wonderful driving ability so 
well. 
In the sixty mile journey Kanawha averaged a fraction under 
a speed of 20 knots an hour. Hauoli did about 19.5 knots. In 
the initial contest for the cup off Newport, on July 24, 1903, in 
which Kanawha won from W. B. Leeds' Noma, the former made 
an average speed of 19.65 knots. According to the cup con- 
ditions, a yacht winning the trophy twice in successive years 
becomes the permanent possessor of the plate. The trophy is 
thus now the property of the winning owner for good and all 
time. 
When the two principals in the great contest appeared at the 
starting line off Sandy Hook, they were as fit as months of 
preparation could make them. Kanawha had been lying in the 
Horseshoe all night. Hauoli steamed down the bay from Erie 
Basin. S. Nicholson Kane and Newbury D. Lawton, of the 
regatta committee of the New York Y. C, were on board the 
torpedo boat destroyer Truxtun, in command of Lieut. Crosley, 
U. S. N., -which was loaned by the Government as committee 
boat for the occasion. 
The long, black, rakish looking craft was anchored W. % S. of 
Sandy Hook Lightship, making a line at right angles to the 
course, which was thirty miles S. % E. The tug Walter Lucken- 
bach, in charge of Lieut. Commander Walter J. Sears, U. b. 
and Oliver E. Cromwell logged the course and acted as the 
outer mark. , 
The preparatory signal was set at 1:15, a quarter of an hour 
after the time originally announced. Fifteen minutes later the 
starting gun boomed forth. Kanawha was away at 1:31 :<2b. Un 
board as guests of the owner, Henry H. Rogers, were E. B. 
Cory, W. R. Coe, W. E. Benjamin, U. H. Broughtom H. H. 
Rogers,: Jr. ; Dr. C. C. Rice, W. W. Windsor, Sidney Chase. !• . 
Q. Barstow and J. A. Moffat. Designer Charles L. Seabury kept 
E l general eye over everything. Captain E. A. Geer was in com- 
mand of the craft and William Scott acted as quartermaster. 
Only four seconds away came Hauoli. On board as guests ot 
her owner, F. M. Smith, were E. H. Bennett, L. Oliver Wrenn, 
De Witt Van Buskirk, E. L. Ransome, W. J. Casejr, Alexander 
E. Orr, Jr.; R. O. Oliver and C. B. Zabriskie. Designer Henry 
J. Gielow looked after the general working of the engines. Ine 
boat was in command of Captain Bliss Read. -c- j 
Among the steam yachts at the start were Commodore l^reder- 
ick G. Bourne's flagship Delaware, with a distinguished party 
on board; Elreba, Henry Darlington; Zara, Harrison B. Moore; 
Laurita, George J. Smith; Viking, J. B. Edson; Seminole, Walter 
S. Gurnee; Elsa II., Andrew W. Rose; Virginia, Isaac Stern; 
Lysistrata, James Gordon Bennett; Rheclair, D. J. Reid; Amer- 
ica, Archibald Watt; Scout, August Belmont, and others. 
As the boats rushed away on the course, with clouds of black 
smoke pouring from their funnels, the fleet of attending yachts 
attempted to follow, but with poor success. Even the Truxtun, 
with steam in four boilers, was having difficulty in keeping up. 
In an hour the outer mark was sighted. Hardly had half of 
another slipped away when both yachts were around and on the 
course for home. Kanawha had beaten Hauoli by 56s., and 
averaged 19.99 knots. Hauoli did 19.16 knots. It had taken the 
Rogers boat Ih. 30m. 30s. to make the thirty mile journey, 
while her opponent took Ih. 31m. 26s. to cover the same 
distance. A brief summary of the outward journey follows: 
Start. Finish. Elapsed. 
Kanawha 1 31 26 3 01 56 1 30 30 
Hauoli .....1 31 30 3 02 56 1 31 26 
On the run home Kanawha gradually drew away and gained 2m. 
and 33s. on Hauoli. She averaged 19.99 knots, while the speed of 
Hauoli was 19.4 knots. It took the winning boat Ih. 30m. 
28s. to cover the thirty nautical miles. Hauoli took Ih. 33m. 
Is. A summary of the last leg follows: 
Outer Mark. Finish. Elapsed. 
Kanawha 3 01 56 4 32 24 1 30 28 
Hauoli . 3 02 56 4 35 57 1 33 01 
As soon as Kanawha had finished, a 70ft. streamer was sent 
aloft. After a short trip into the Horseshoe to pick up launches 
and other fittings left there before the race, a start for the 
Battery was made. The victorious yacht was continually saluted 
on the trip up the harbor. Hauoli proceeded up the bay ahead 
of her conqueror. There was a general period of congratulation 
on board Kanawha. 
During the entire race Kanawha consumed fifteen tons of 
Pocahontas coal. Her screws averaged 300 revolutions a minute, 
and she carried upward of 250 pounds of steam. Hauoli burned 
twelve tons of selected George's Creek coal, and under about 
the same steam pressure her screw made an average of 298 revo- 
lutions. The summary of the entire race follows: 
Start. Finish. Elapsed. 
Kanawha 1 31 26 4 32 24 3 00 58 
Hauoli 1 31 30 4 35 57 3 04 27 
Kanawha was purchased from the late John P. Duncan, who 
used the boat up to the period of his fatal illness. Her ap- 
pointment and fittings are luxurious, yet in good taste. There 
is an abundance of room in the living quarters and on deck. 
Although five years old, the boat is still the fastest and among 
the best appearing in the American pleasure yacht fleet. She is 
used a greater part of the time between New York City, Fair- 
haven, Mass., and New Bedford Harbor, where the owner has 
a summer home.. , , 
Hauoli is used by F. M. Smith, who has a beautiful summer 
residence at , Shelter Island, L. I., for cruising and general 
purposes of recreation, The boat has an especially trim and 
natty appearance, and is a well appointed, up-to-date craft in 
every particular. She was built last year by the John Robins 
Company, Erie Basin, South Brooklyn. A few details of the 
two boats follow:

Latchmont Y. C. 
Larchmont, Long Island Sound, Saturday, June 18. 
The spring regatta of the Larchmont Y. C. was held on 
Saturday, June 18. Although this is not the first event given on 
the Sound, it marks, however, the real opening of the season, so 
far as the racing is concerned. This is the first event of the sea- 
son in this vicinity where there has been a fair number of starters. 
From the racing man's standpoint the day was about as un- 
satifactory as it could be. The wind was very light from the 
W. at the start, but this fickle breeze soon dropped and the 
boats were becalmed for hours with an occasional puff helping 
along the first one, and then another. About 5 o'clock, when 
the larger boats were on the last leg of the first round, the 
breeze, which had held under the New York shore, worked out 
a little and enabled the boats to finish. 
Neola and Weetamoe were to sail twice over a fifteen mile 
course, but it was nearly 6 o'clock when Neola finished the 
first round, and the regatta committee did not send her around 
again. Weetamoe got the start, and a big jib topsail was 
broken out for the reach over to the first mark off Prospect 
Point. Neola was not far behind and , she also broke out a jib 
topsail. Weetamore was first around the Prospect mark. On 
the next leg Neola got a puff and ran up on Weetamoe and 
passed her. She had the luck to get what little air there was, 
and finally opened out a big lead on her competitor. Weetamoe 
got becalmed in Hempstead Harbor, while Neola was steadily 
working away. Neola caught the new breeze first and finished 
a winner with over 15m. to spare. 
At 12:10 the yawls were sent away. Tern, well handled, showed 
up remarkably well. This boat is a very smart craft, and will take 
a lot of beating, particularly in light weather. Tern beat Escape, 
the second boat, by over 6m. Spasm had no competitor and 
took a sailover. 
The best racing of the day was in Class N- Mimosa, with 
Mr. T. L. Park, the owner, at the stick, got the start with Alert, 
handled by Mr. C. D. Mower, second. Balloon jibs were broken 
out for the reach over to the mark at Prospect Point. Nike, ex- 
Oiseau, got a wretched start, but a favorable slant enabled her 
to run up on the two leaders until she nearly overtook them. 
Nike is painted white this season, and her appearance is spoiled. 
As a black - boat, she always attracted attention. 
Mimosa rounded the Prospect mark first, gybing over her 
balloon jib. Alert was close behind, with Nike a long distance 
astern. Spinnakers were set to port, then the mainsails would 
be gybed over and the spinnakers reset on the other side. This 
was kept up for hours, and every puff was taken advantage of. 
Little progress was made and the boats barely had steerageway. 
At the second mark off Matinicock, Mimosa was well ahead of 
Alert. It was now a long leg and a short one to the finish line. 
Mimosa was sailed a little close, her jib being aback some of the 
time, and Alert seemed to foot faster and point higher. Nike 
was pulling up and looked dangerous. She has always been a 
wonderful boat to windward in light air. Alert continued to do 
well until she pulled well ahead of Mimosa. Alert finished Im. 
35s. ahead of Mimosa. Nike was less than a minute astern of 
Mimosa. 
Snapper and Una, two old raceabouts, were the only starters 
in Class P. Una won easily, beating Snapper by nearly 5m. Mr. 
Butler Duncan purchased Una, ex-Persimmon, this season to* 
race in the raceabout class. It was found that the boat was 
out of that class when she was measured, and Mr. 'Duncan has 
b< ,, ■ rr' -' 'T '■•^i'' -'n the 2.^ft. sloop class. 
There were seventeen starters in the raceabout class, making 
3 very guoa showing. 'Ihe t)uiy new boat bges i» tbp race started 
in the raoeabout class. She is a Crowninshield production known 
as Rascal II. _ The boat is of mahogany and has a very straight 
sheer. She did not show up well, being the last boat in her 
class to finish, but this does not signify anything as the day 
was too fluky for real tests. 
Hobo, cleverly handled by Mr. ClifTord Bucknam, finished a 
winner, with Cricket 33s. behind. Tartan Was third and Rogue 
fourth. Three of the new Indian Harbor one-design boats started. 
Kenoshi won easily. 
tP! j^^, ^"'i'' Larchmont one-design boats that started, Vaquero 
11 had the best of it and won; Dorothy was second, with Houri 
a very close third. Jeebi finished a winner with minutes to spare 
m Class Q. ^Luto did not finish. Second place lies between 
Gazabo and Ethel. Plover took a sailover in Class R, as she 
was alone in the class. 
Only two of the Manhasset Bay one-design boats started. Pup 
i not finish, and Bab went over the course alone. Alga one 
of the New Rochelle one-design boats, owned nro tem by Mr. 
James D. Sparkman beat Caper, her only competitor, easily. 
Dorothy was the only catboat to start in Class V. Scud beat 
Goshn, her only competitor in the Hempstead Harbor one-design 
class, by over Urn. Skidoo won easilv in the Lark class. Yellow 
Jacket finished a poor second, and Echo withdrew. The sum-
