Cubana of the handicap class and on corrected 
time the boat had no great difficulty in winning 
the division. Joy was the first of the class 
home, but had no possible chance of saving her 
time. The division sailed the same course as 
the Q boats. The S division had an exception¬ 
ally long race that took them down to Buoy 
No. 11. Cyric finally won the division. Sky¬ 
lark won among the X boats and Aries was the 
first of the New York C. C. dinghies to finish.

Harlem Y. C. 
Twenty-six yachts took part in the long dis¬ 
tance races of the Harlem Y. C. last week. 
There were seventeen sail craft and nine motor 
boats, and they raced from Execution Light to 
Stratford Shoal and return, 61 nautical miles. 
The wind was fresh from the northwest and the 
sailing craft made fast time. The prize for the 
sail yachts was a cup presented by Vice-Com¬ 
modore Burrough. It was won by Victory. 
Ediana won second prize, and Senora won the 
third. The prize for the handicap class went to 
Kenmuir. The power boat race for Yachting 
cup was won by Ruth II., with Elmo II. second.

Beverly Y. C. 
The yachts of the Beverly Y. C. had strong 
wind and rough seas for the regatta last week, 
and some yachtsmen were kept at their moor¬ 
ings because of the conditions. Foraminifer, 
which has already won the championship in her 
class, won from the 21-footers. She led from 
start to finish. Scallop was second. Phantom 
parted her shrouds and had to withdraw. 
Pheasant won in the 15-foot class and Yalu, 
sailed by Miss Margaret Codman, was second. 
The wind was from northwest. It kicked up so 
much sea that the dories did not race. The 
times:

Thomas Fleming Day Back. 
Capt. Thomas Fleming Day, who, with 
Theodore R. Goodwin, president of the Yacht 
Racing Association of Narragansett Bay, and 
Fred B. Thurber, of Providence, sailed the yawl 
Sea Bird across the Atlantic from Pawtucket 
to Rome, Italy, returned with Mr. Goodwin on 
the steamship Konig Albert last week. Sea 
Bird, looking none the worse for her experi¬ 
ence, was lashed on the deck of the steamer. 
Sea Bird sailed away from the Rhode Island 
Y. C., Pawtucket, at 2 o’clock on the afternoon 
of June 10. She had on board 2,400 pounds of 
•provisions. The flag of Italy was at the main 
mast. Sea Bird had been fitted with a small 
auxiliary engine, but she could not carry much 
fuel, and the auxiliary was for use when working 
into harbor. She had to sail most of the way. 
Capt. Day was enthusiastic about his voyage. 
“We did not have an accident of any kind,” he 
said. “Sea Bird behaved handsomely under all 
sorts of trying conditions. We did not part a 
rope or strain a spar. There is some satisfac¬ 
tion, too, in realizing that we made the passage 
from the American coast inside the average time 
taken by large sailing vessels. 
“Our little craft is only 19 feet on the water¬ 
line and yet we averaged 104 miles a day for 
thirty-two days. That is rather swift going for 
any sailing craft for such a length of time. Sea 
Bird’s best day's run was 183 miles and her 
poorest 50 miles. We had bad weather the first 
ten days, when we were in the Gulf Stream, and 
there was one hard blow in particular which we 
had to ride out with a drag ahead. During that 
blow we dragged 77 miles in 24 hours. Sea 
Bird, however, proved to be a splendid 
vessel no matter how severe the weather was. 
Her decks were dry and she never gave us one 
moment of anxiety. To take advantage of the 
current as much as possible we kept in the Gulf 
Stream and this accounts for our not meeting 
any vessels. We were out of the course ot 
ocean liners and for seventeen days did not see 
a sail. We made Flores in eighteen days, and 
two days later reached Fayal. 
“At Fayal men and women, native and 
foreign, all turned out and gave us a rousing 
welcome. After having been cooped up in the 
little boat for so long, you can readily under¬ 
stand that we were not in condition to dance
