New One-Design Schooner Class. 
Five of the new class of one-designed schooner 
yachts, which W. Butler Duncan, Jr., New York 
Y. C., has organized, are now building at the 
yards of the Rice Brothers Company, East Booth- 
bay, Me. 
These schooners are of moderate size, but will 
prove to be an interesting class. They will be 
delivered by May 1 next, and every club on Long 
Island Sound will give prizes for the class in 
their regattas, while for the series of the season 
there will be a valuable championship trophy. 
The new schooners are to be 30 feet on the 
waterline, 41 feet over-all, 8 feet beam and 6 
feet draft. There will be 780 square feet in the 
lower sail. 
B. B. Crowninshield, of Boston, is the designer 
of the class, and will superintend the construc¬ 
tion of the yachts. The owners of the vessels 
now in hand are: Ciarkson Cowl, Charles L. 
Poor, Edward Randolph, W. II. Judson and W. 
Butler Duncan, Jr. 
These yachtsmen hope that the c'ass will have 
ten boats at least. They are sure that the boats 
will be found handy, serviceable, of fine speed, 
and that amateurs and junior yachtsmen will be 
delighted with them. Their running expenses 
will be small and their first cost a moderate 
amount. 
In addition to the many races that will be 
offered for the class by the clubs of the Y. R. A. 
of Long Island Sound it is reported that the 
New York Y. C. will offer special prizes for 
the class.

River was good, and no bad weather was struck
