The Motor Boat committee in charge of the 
races to be held at the Jamestown Exposition, 
at a meeting at the Hotel Aslor on Nov. 14, 
finally adopted the programme of events for the 
contemplated carnival. They also discussed the 
question of rating rules to govern, and ended by 
appointing a large committee to finally dispose of 
the matter. There was an evident disposition 
not to accept the present rule of the American 
Power Boat Association or any “tinkered rule” 
which it may adopt as “good enough,” but to 
approach the subject on a scientific basis and 
arrive at a solution of the problem. 
The programme adopted calls for six days’ 
racing, starting on Sept. 2, which will be given 
over to reliability trials of six hours’ duration 
to take account of continuous progress, speed, 
condition after trial, economy of fuel and oil, 
efficiency of reversing mechanism, ease of con¬ 
trol, and other factors. 
A long distance race from 100 to 150 miles on 
Sept. 3, mile and kilometer trials for boats of 
all classes on Sept. 4, and series of races on Sept. 
4, 5 arid 6 for cabin cruising boats, tor high 
speed open boats both with and without time 
allowance, including championship contests. All 
these series races will be decided on the point 
system and not single races. 
The classification of boats will be by over all 
length alone and not by rating lengths, but .he 
allowances will be by rating tables. The classi¬ 
fication includes: Over 60 feet, from 50 to 60, 
40 to 50, 33 to 40, 26 to 33, 21 to 26, and under 
2t for high speed boats, and over 100 feet, from 
60 to 100, 40 to 60, 30 to 40, and under 30 for 
cabin boats in cruising trim. 
The Rating Rule committee appointed includes 
H. P. Sutphen, Charles P. Tower, J. Howard 
Wainwright, C. C. Riotte, H. Newton Whittelsey, 
M. M. Whitaker, and E. A. Stevens, Jr.

1907 Motor Boat Show. 
The attention of engine and boat builders and 
manufacturers of all kinds of accessories, of the 
United States, is called to the 1907 National 
Motor Boat show, to be held under the auspices 
of the National Association of Engine and Boat 
Manufacturers at Madison Square Garden, New 
York city, Feb. 19 to 26, inclusive, as being the 
only National show of the engine and boat build¬ 
ing industry of this country. This will be the 
first show of a national character ever held that 
will be an out-and-out engine and boat show. 
The space of time that this show will be open is 
only eight days, whereas, heretofore, the na¬ 
tional show has been held in connection with the 
Sportsman's Show and was of fifteen days’ dura¬ 
tion. This long period has necessitated a loss of 
considerable time to both employers and em¬ 
ployees from their respective plants, which has 
added greatly to the cost of exhibits. With the 
show now a distinct engine and boat show and 
of but eight days’ duration, considerable expense 
is saved the respective exhibitors. 
Virginia, steam yacht, owned by Mr. Isaac 
Stern, New York Y. C., is at Fletcher’s under¬ 
going repairs. Virginia was built at the Bath 
Iron Works to the designs of the late Geo. Len¬ 
nox Watson, and is one of the fine vessels owned 
in this country.

The best of workmanship stands the 
racket none to well. 
How can anyone expect much of the 
other kind. 
If you haven’t the money to spend on both 
fine finish and strength, insist that your 
designer give you strength.
