Midsummer Series, Y. R. A. Open — Hull, Mass., July 27. 
With a lively breeze from the S. and a smooth sea, the annual 
midsummer series of Y. R. A. open races, given by the Boston 
Y. C, commenced at . Hull on Wednesday, July 27. Forty-five 
yachts crossed the starting line, all of which finished. In the 
30ft.. class, Chewink IV. was across the starting line first with 
Sauquoit on her weather quarter. They at once started to luff, 
but Chewink IV. pulled away and led to the finish. Warrior 
was first across the starting line in the 22ft. class, followed by 
Peri II., Clotho and Medric. Medric and Clotho went at the 
windward end of the line and in the best positions for the first 
reach. At the first mark Clotho had the lead, followed by Peri 
II., Medric and Warrior. On the beat to windward Peri II. went 
to the lead and held it until the Peddock's Island mark was 
turned for the second time. On the second beat to windward 
Clotho took the lead and held it to the finish. The 18-footers 
were all bunched at the starting line, twenty-three of them in all. 
Napier was the first boat in the class to get across. They held 
well together until the first mark was reached, where Menace 
was first and Hayseed second, with the rest of the class bunched. 
On the beat to windward Hayseed went by Menace to first 
place, while Boo Hoo went into second place, with Menace, 
Arrow and Arbeka II. right after them. Hayseed held her lead 
for the rest of the way, with Boo Hoo second, while Miladi II. 
went up to third place. Tabasco, Jr., led from the start in the 
15ft. class, and this was also true of L'Aiglon in the first handi- 
cap class and Scapegoat in the second handicap class. The

Thursday, July 28. 
A rail breeze from the S., with smooth sea and a rather hazy 
sky was given the yachtsmen for the second of the midsummer 
series. In the 30ft. class Sauquoit was over the starting line 
ahead of the gun and had to return. Chewink IV. got the start 
and led all over the course. Sauquoit's mast went by the board 
just after she had turned the first mark. In the 22-footers, Peri 
II. got the weather berth at the start and opened up a good 
lead before the first mark was reached, holding it all the way 
around the course, with Clotho second. Twenty-three starters 
in the 18ft. class did their usual crowding at the start. Arrow 
got her wind clear first and had the lead before the first mark 
was reached. She also led on the' windward leg, but Miladi II. 
cut in on her at the Strawberry Hill mark and led until this 
mark was turned again, when Hugi was first, with Kittiwake V. 
second. Miladi II. went through their lee, however, and finished 
in first place. In the 15-footers Vera II. got the start and led 
all over the course. Meemer got the start in the first handi- 
cap class and led all over the course. L'Aiglon stuck close to 
her all the way, however, and got first on corrected time. Scape- 
goat got the start in the second handicap class and led all over 
the course, but lost to Jacobin on time allowance. A close race 
in the dory class was won by Lurline II. The summary:

Saturday, July 30. 
The last of the midsummer series of open races of the Boston 
Y. C, sailed on Saturday, July 30, was the best of all. The 
breeze was fresh, S.S.E. at the start, hauling to S.S.W. at the 
finish. The hauling of the wind, however, did not in any way 
spoil the racing. Fifty-one yachts crossed the starting line, 
and all but three of these finished. In the 30ft. class, Chewink IV. 
got the. start and again led to the finish. Sauquoit again had 
hard luck, carrying away her throat halliards on the first leg, 
which compelled her to withdraw. In the 22-footers, Peri II. got 
the start, but on the windward leg Opitsah V. took the lead, 
with Clotho second and Peri II. third. On the next leg, a reach, 
both Clotho and Peri II. passed Opitsah and Peri got the lead 
before the next mark was reached, only to lose it to Clotho and 
Opitsah on account of failing wind. Clotho led to the Peddock's 
Island mark, after turning which, Opitsah managed to get the 
windward berth on her. Opitsah kept Clotho under her lee- all 
the way on the second windward leg until the mark was reached, 
when Opitsah stood too far and Clotho turned inside of her. 
Clotho led from this out, while Peri II. went into second place. 
In the 18-footers Bat came out of the bunch of twenty-three 
starters and took the lead, with Arrow following only a few 
seconds behind all the way around the course. In the 15- 
footers Tabasco, Jr., got the start, but Vera II. went ahead of 
her before the mark was reached and led all around the course. 
In the first handicap class Meemer led all around the course, but 
L'Aiglon again got first place on corrected time. In the second 
handicap class Scapegoat led all the way. The summary: 
Class C — 30-Footers.

Alarblehead, Tuesday, Aug. 2. 
A Y. R. A. open race was given by the Boston Y. C. at Marble- 
head on Tuesday, Aug. 2, which, on account of almost an entire 
lack of wind, might be called a clear fluke. Chewink IV. got the 
start in the 30-footers, and led until the wind failed entirely, when 
Sauquoit drifted up by her and led to the finish. Medric got the 
start in the 22-footers. with the rest of the class bunched. Medric 
and Clotho had a S.W. breeze near the finish, while Opitsah got 
it off the other shore, and Opitsah won out. Otter won in the 
18-footers, Crescent in the dories, Tabasco, Jr., in the 15-footers, 
Jingo in the first handicap class, and Scapegoat in the second 
handicap class. The summary:
