SAIL PLAN—PENATAQUIT Y. C. ONE-DESIGN CLASS-DESIGNED BY MR. CHAS. D. MOWER. 
The Penataquit Y. C. 0. D. Class. 
By the kindness of Mr. Chas. D. Mower, we 
publish the plans and a photograph of the one- 
design class which was very successfully raced 
last summer by the Penataquit Y. C., of Bay 
Shore, Great South Bay, Long Island. The 
boats were intended to be fast, able and com¬ 
fortable little day boats that would give good 
sport on the circuit of the bay and Saturday 
races. These little boats have been most suc¬ 
cessful. Mr. Mower has turned out some of 
the finest examples of small boats for this pur¬ 
pose, and they have been entirely satisfactory— 
good sea boats, good looks, and very fast.' 
There were six boats built for members of 
the club at Mr. Larry Huntington’s yard, New 
Rochelle. As the drawings show, the boats are 
fitted with centerboards and an iron keel of 
8oo pounds. The cockpit is large enough to give 
good space and yet restricted as to prevent too 
much water getting aboard in bad weather. The 
construction was very carefully worked out, and 
great care was used by the builder. The plank¬ 
ing was of white cedar, in single thickness, 
fastened with brass screws. The sail plan is not 
excessive, though for ordinary work is quite 
ample, and does not require more than two men 
to work knocking about. The' sheer and lines 
of the boat are very pleasing; they conform well 
to the form we always expect from Mr. Mower. 
The ends are well turned and very graceful—a 
detail in small boats very often neglected. 
This type of boat is one well adapted to many 
localities, and one that not alone furnishes good 
sport in racing, but for sailing generally. The 
price per boat for six was fairly low, .as the 
prices for boats go nowadays. The cost for each 
delivered was about $6oo, and for a period of 
several years of service which such boats give, 
the outlay, considering the amount of sport they 
give, is really very small.

Lately the Water Registrar, Col. Michael C. 
Padden, has obtained from the honorable Board 
of Aldermen a grant of $15,000 for safeguard¬ 
ing the city’s water supply pipes and hydrants 
situated on or near the docks, from water 
thieves, to supply tugs, etc., with fresh water. 
The appropriation is to cover the cost of a fast 
launch to do police duty and thus save the city’s 
water supply. 
This boat is eminently a good opportunity for 
an enterprising yacht architect to show what he 
can do—indeed, such a problem is one which 
they encounter often and in which requirements 
are perfectly familiar.
