r Beverly Y. C 
Buzzards' Bay — Saturday, July 2. 
The first Corinthian race of the Beverly Club was sailed in 
Buzzards' Bay on Saturday, July 2, in a S. W. gale. Many of 
the yachts were half filled with water when they reached the 
finish line, and one of the 15-footers, Fly, sailed by Miss C. M. 
Williams, was capsized. In the 30ft. class Young Miss got the 
start and won easily. In the 21-footers Terrapin took the lead 
at the start and came home first by a long margin. This was 
also the case with Jap in the 18-footers. In the fourth class 
cats Maori won a very close race from Howard. In the 15ft. 
class, Teaser, sailed by Mrs. R. W. Emmons, 2d, got the best 
of the start and was more than a mile ahead on the last leg. 
Teaser was near Fly, when the latter capsized, and Mrs. Emmons 
at once went to Miss Williams' assistance. In spite of this in- 
terruption Teaser won by 29s. The summary: 
30-Footers.

New York Y. C 
Glen Cove, Long Island Sound— Friday, July 8. 
The New York Y. C. held its first race for yachts too small for 
enrollment On Friday, July 8. This event was open to club mem- 
bers and their friends, and was a decided innovation. It is be- 
lieved by all to be a good idea, however, for the racing of to-day 
is done by small boats, and should be encouraged. 
The race was not a great success when the number of starters 
is considered. This is most unfortunate, for now that a step has 
been taken in the right direction by the regatta committee, they 
should be properly supported. 
Four classes filled, and the eleven starters all were sent over an 
11%-mile course. The first leg was 4% miles N.E., the second 3 
miles W. by N. % N., and the third leg was 4 miles S. by W. The 
wind was E. N. E. The first leg was a beat, the second a run 
and the third a reach. 
The preparatory was biven at 2:30. and 10 minutes later Alert 
and Mimosa started. Alert, handled by Commodore A. K. Alker, 
crossed 31s. after the signal. It was not a one-gun start, so Mr. 
T. L. Park took his time in sending Mimosa over. She crossed 
lm. 19s. after the signal. Alert showed Mimosa the way to the 
weather mark. In fact she led all over the course, and was never 
in danger of losing the race. 
The wind was fluky and veered around in a most exasperating 
manner. When the larger boats were nearing the second mark the 
wind let up to such an extent that the balance of the race was 
hardly more than a drift. 
Una and Galatea were started at 2:45. Una led over the line 
and was never headed. She left Galatea so easily that the racing 
was without interest. 
Tomboy led the raceabouts over the starting line at 2.50. Hobo, 
Idler and Cricket followed in the order named. Cricket pointed 
high and moved fast, and soon worked from last place into the 
lead. Cricket worked away from Tomboy steadily, and won by 
nearly 10m. Idler was third, being far behind Tomboy. Hobo 
withdrew. . 
In the third class sloops the starters were Kenoshi, Owatonna 
and Bairn. The two former belong to the Indian Harbor one- 
design boats, and the latter is one of the Seawanhaka one-design 
15-footers. After rounding the first mark, the regatta committee 
notified the owners , to return to the finish line, as there was not 
wind enough for. them to cover the course. This was done, but the 
boats were unable to finish within half an hour after sunset, which 
is the time limit. Kenosha led while the race lasted. 
The regatta committee, Composed of Messrs. S. Nicholson Kane, 
Newbury D. Lawton, and Oliver E. Cromwell, with Frank Bowne 
Jones acting, were on board the tug Unique. The summary fol-

Duxbury Y, C. 
Duxbury, Mass.— Saturday, July 2. 
A club race of the Duxbury Y. C. was sailed in Duxbury Bay 
on Saturday, July 2, in a strong S. W. breeze. In the 18ft. class 
Kittiwake IV. won easily. In the handicap class, Mr. W. T. 
Whitman was dragged overboard by the main sheet. As You 
Like It was leading at the time, but went to the assistance of 
Mr. Whitman and rescued him after considerable difficulty. 
Neither of the yachts finished, but the prize was awarded to 
As You Like It. The summary:

Larchmont Y. C. 
Larchmont, Long Island Sound — Monday, July 4. 
The twenty-fifth annual regatta of the Larchmont Y. C. was 
sailed on Monday, July 4, in a fresh S. W. breeze. Although the 
list of starters was small when compared with that of previous 
years, still the racing in the clases that filled was good. Strange 
to say, no schooners started, and the largest single sticker to 
go over the course was the 51-footer Altair. 
In the morning there was but little air stirring. Soon after 
11 o'clock, however, a nice breeze struck in from the S. W-, and 
the regatta committee, finding it was going to hold, decided to 
start the race at noon. 
Boats in Class K and M sailed twice over an 11-mile triangle. 
This first leg was E. 4 miles, the second S. W. 4 miles and the 
third N. N. W. 3 miles. The first leg was a broad reach, the 
second a beat and the third a broad reach, so broad in fact, 
that some of the boats were able to carry spinnakers. 
At 12:15 boats in Classes K and M started, and the starters 
crossed in the following order: Spasm, Anoatok. Mimosa III., 
Altair and Tern. The cutter Altair and the yawl Tern were alone 
in their respective classes, both took sailovers, and the regatta 
committee stopped Tern at the end of the first round. 
Mimosa TIL, a new Herreshoff production, owned by Mr. 
Trenor L. Park, had no trouble in beating Spasm and Anoatok. 
Mimosa III, is almost identical to Onward, a well-known Herres- 
hoff boat. She was built for Mr. C. S. Eatpn this spring, and is 
47ft. over all, 30ft. waterline and 7ft. 6in. breadth. This was her 
maiden race and she beat Spasm 4m. 27s. Spasm beat Anoatok 
8m. 19s. 
Alert, Bobtail and Mimosa were the starters in Class N, they 
started in the order named. Alert had a big lead on her com- 
petitors at the end of the first round and won easily. The race- 
abouts was the only class that made a good showing in so far 
as the number of starters was concerned. Ten boats started. 
Tartan and Tom Boy were in a class by themselves, and in all 
probability Tartan would have won had she not broken her 
throat halliards on the windward work on the second round. 
Tom Boy beat Rascal II., the second boat, by over lm. Hobo 
was third. In Class P, Una had no trouble in beating Miss 
Judy. Snapper, the third boat to start, did not finish. Vaquero 
won in the Larchmont one-design class. Adelaide was second. 
Only two of the Indian Harbor raceabouts started. Kenoshi 
won, but she was protested by Anawanda. The race in Class Q 
lay between Gazabo and Jeebi, as Skip did not finish. Gazabo 
won easily. 
Ace, one of the New Rochelle one-design boats, started against 
Scoot and Plover in Clas R for sloops. Ace beat Plover and 
Scoot did not finish. 
Of the four starters in the Manhasset Bay one-design class, Bab 
had the best of it and won easily. Pup was second. The regatta 
committee was composed, of Messrs. Charles P. Tower, chairman; 
T. S. J. Flint and Howell C. Perrin. The summary follows:

Saturday, July 9. 
The race committee of the club did all they could to make the 
power boat race held on July 9 a success. The race was rather a 
failure, as most of the motor boat contests have been thus far this 
season. Lack of starters was the main trouble. Only four boats 
turned up and only one class filled. All the boats covered a 
15-knot triangular course. Vingt et Un covered the 15-knot course 
in 48m. 5s. She has done better. Vingt et Un wins the prize 
for the best elapsed time over the course, and Queen gets the 
prize for the best corrected time. The summary:

Newport Y. C. 
Narragansett Bay, R. I. — Monday, July 4. 
The first of the season's regattas of the Newport Y. C. was 
sailed on _ the Fourth, for prizes offered by the city, in con- 
nection with the municipal celebration of the day. There were 
only a dozen entries; but it was an interesting race, as a strong 
S. breeze gave the little boats all they wan'ed to carry sail 
under. In the smaller class the Vesper I. capsized off the spar 
buoy at Bishop Rock, and the crew of four clung to the side of 
the boat until they were rescued. The boat was towed ashore. 
The winners were Henrietta, Caroline, Restless and Vesper II.
