Atlantic Y. C. 
Wednesday, July 4. 
The regatta of the Atlantic Y. C. was sailed in bad 
weather, but in a good wind. The weather kept many 
competitors away, and only nine yachts started, three 
in Class P and six in Class Q. Sue met with a mishap 
during the second round and withdrew, as did also 
Saetta. The Q Class sailed a good race, and it was re¬ 
grettable that Joy, who had place, should get mixed up 
with a tramp steamer which was impolite enough to get 
in the way. Soya was well handled, and did not fail to 
preserve her well-earned advantage. The course was to 
Bensonhurst, Fort Hamilton, West Bank and home.

The Q Class at Gravesend Bay saved the day from 
being dull. In Class N Vivian II.' started and with¬ 
drew. In Class P only three starters materialized. Soya 
beat Saetta by 15s. The other boats were hardly in the 
race, being so far behind. The summary follows:

Beverly Y. C. 
The Beverly Y. C. sailed its 381st regatta from its club 
house on Saturday, June 30. 
As at previous races, there was a large number of 
entries in the 21 and 15ft. classes, and one entry in the 
18ft. one-design. During the morning there was a light 
S.W. breeze, and there were hopes of a good race day, 
but shortly before the start, squalls began to heave up 
in the northwest, and at 12:45, the starting hour, these 
had entirely killed what little wind there was. At 1 
o’clock the first squall struck with rain and a heavy 
wind, and the race was therefore postponed a few min¬ 
utes. At 1:05 the weather had cleared enough to make 
a start possible, and the preparatory gun was fired. 
The 21-footers got away with a fresh breeze from N.W., 
which carried them with spinnakers to Scraggy Buoy 
No. 8. From there they ran across to Bird Island buoy, 
and then turned to beat home. The squall having passed 
over before they started home, the wind gradually fell 
off, and the boats finished in almost a flat calm. Some 
went one side of the bay and some the other, and the 
wind was so different in strength and direction that the 
fleet was strung out tremendously. Amanita III. won 
and Arethusa took second place. Mr. Paine’s new Owl 
did her best work of the season, and finished third. 
Barnacle broke her gaff on the run down and did not 
finish. Commodore Dabney’s Terrapin also met witn 
an accident, and was very greatly delayed. She managed 
to finish nearly an hour behind the leader. 
The 18ft. and 15-fcoters were sent twice around the 
triangle to B. Y. C. buoy No. 2, Mosher’s Rock, and 
return. Before they started, the first squall had blown 
over, and another one had come up. This struck with 
considerable force just as the boats got under way, so 
that the start was a very lively one. Young Hellier 
won in his Flickamaroo, and Miss Eleanor Emmons was 
second with Mongoose. The times in detail follow:

The Beverly Y. C. sailed its 382d regatta from its club 
house on July 4. The event was the first open sweep- 
stake of the season. p 
The morning opened with a strong wind from S.W. 
which increased so that the race was sailed under pecu¬ 
liar Buzzard’s Bay conditions, a wind that amounted to 
almost a gale from S.W. 
There were five entries in the 21ft. Class, and they all 
had a hard beat to windward to Bird Island, and a fast 
and exciting run home. The weather was exactly to 
Barnacle’s liking, and she won very easily. Terrapin 
took second place, and Amanita III. and Arethusa had 
a very, close race for fourth place. Amanita III. finally 
got it by something over half a second. Arethusa had 
gone out to windward in an astonishing fashion, and 
it was due chiefly to her slow running that she did not 
get a much higher position in the class. 
The 15-ft. one-design boats were sent once around the 
triangle—Mosher’s Rock, B. Y. C. buoy No. 2 and 
return. It was certainly to the credit of the young 
ladies of Buzzard’s Bay that, in ,spite of the very severe 
weather conditions, the first two places in this one-design 
class were taken by lady skippers. Miss Margaret Cod- 
man won with Yalu and Miss Eleanor Emmons took 
second place with Mongoose. One of the features of the 
day was the extraordinary time made before the wind 
by these small boats. The leader made the run from 
the club house to Mosher’s Rock in about seven min¬ 
utes, which is at the rate of about 9.9 knots per hour.

Boston Y. C. 
Marblehead, Mass.—Saturday, June 30. 
A race of the Boston Y. C. was sailed at Marblehead 
on Saturday, June 30, over an 11-mile course in a stiff 
N.E. breeze and a jump of a sea. It was the second 
meeting of the Sonder boats, and under the same con¬ 
ditions that existed a week before, the results were 
somewhat different. In this class the boats made a 
straggling start, Bonidrei getting away first, followed by 
Hayseed, Skiddoo, Sumatra and Sally VIII. Bonidrei 
led at the first mark, with Sally VIII second, Sumatra 
third, Skiddoo fourth, and Hayseed last. On the wind¬ 
ward leg Sumatra beat the others in great style, but 
before the mark was reached, Sally VIII. went up some 
in a lightening breeze. Sumatra had a lead of about 15s. 
at this mark, but on the run in Sally VIII. kept gain¬ 
ing, Sumatra winning by only one second. In the 22ft. 
class, Tyro got the start and led all around, beating 
Marie L. fairly under the same conditions that the lat¬ 
ter beat her a week previous. Dorchen won in the 18- 
footers, Clotheroe in Class Q, and Carina II. in the 
second rating class. The summary:

South Boston Y. C. 
Quincy, Mass.—Saturday, June 23. 
The postponed Memorial Day race of the South Boston 
Y. C. in Class D Cape cats, was sailed over the Quincy 
Y. C. course on Saturday, June 23, in a stiff N.E. 
breeze and a jumping sea. Hustler got the start and 
led all around the course. She was closely pressed by 
Iris, however, which was only one second behind at the 
finish. On corrected time, Iris lost second place to 
Marvel. There was also a class for launches, in which 
Susie won. The summary:
