arrangement, in the Forest and Stream competition for 
a 6oft. waterline cruising launch. The design wa§ sub- 
mitted under the pseudonym of Moccasin by Mr. Parolfi 
Lee, of Mariners' Harbor, S. I. 
The main deck is raised 2oin. above the sheer line for 
a distance of 38ft. amidships to allow plenty of head 
room for accommodations below. The frames and plank- 
ing are carried up to the raised deck, forming the sides 
of the house. 
Entrance to the owner's quarters and main saloon is 
through a pilot house, which is 8ft. pin. long, 7ft. 6in. 
wide, and stands sit. 6m. above deck. The floor of this 
house is dropped below the level of the deck, giving 
ample head room ; the pilot house is intended for use as 
shelter for the steersman during stormy weather, and 
arrangement is made so that the boat can be steered from 
this point or outside. There are three windows at the 
forward §n4 oi Jiouse, vvitb drop e^di side tfeer? 
are two windows with sash to slide fore and aft. Cushion 
seats are provided on both sides of the house, and there 
is sufficient head room for a person to sit erect. There is 
one locker on the port side and chart racks on the star- 
board side. 
A stairway leads down from the pilot house to a 
passageway, and the entrance to the main saloon is op- 
posite the foot of the stairs. The passage leads for- 
ward on the starboard side to the owner's room, which 
is forward of the pilot house; the bathroom is located 
back of the stairway on the port side, and opens into both 
the passageway and the owner's room. By this arrange- 
ment the main saloon, owner's room or bathroom can be 
entered directly from the passageway. 
The owner's room extends the full width of the boat, 
and has wide transom berths on each side; two lockers 
and bureau with a mirror and clothes drawers are built 
under the transom and under the pilot house floor. There 
are six port lights, two on each side and two at the for- 
ward end of the cabin, allowing the occupants an ex- 
tended view outside without going on deck, and excellent 
ventilation. 
-/The bathroom has a 4ft. tub, basin and water closet. 
Tie fresh water for lavatory purposes is pumped from a 
tajik under the pilot house floor. There are two hinged 
port lights,

with wide transom berths on each side to accommodate 
two people. There is also in this saloon a sideboard, 
writing desk, cushion seat, folding table, two large 
lockers, bookcases, with glass, fronts, over the transoms 
on either side, and clothes drawers under the transom 
berths. The room can be partitioned off by curtains on 
the starboard side of the skylight to allow the steward to 
pass forward and_ aft without disturbing the occupants. 
Light and ventilation are supplied by four port lights and 
*a skylight. 
Ample locker room is provided for oilers, wet clothes, 
etc., under the stairs and pilot house floor, and on the 
starboard side of the passageway leading to ©wner's 
room are lockers for guns, rods, etc.

opening into the latter, is the pantry, which can also be, 
used to accommodate a maid if desired. There is a tran- 
som berth which can be used as a linen locker, and over 
it are lockers and shelves for dishes and a dresser. 
Aft of the pantry is the galley with ice-box, three- 
burner oil stove, sink and pump, and shelves and locker 
for cooking utensils under the sink and stove. There is a 
locker for provisions, etc., under the after deck, and 
accessible to the galley. A sliding door opens into the 
engine room, where accommodation is provided for three
