ONE-DESIGN CLASS AT START. 
three, her speed dropping from 9 to 6 miles. 
It was noon on Sunday before the engine was 
repaired, and it was figured that she lost six 
hours’ time through the accident. She experi¬ 
enced strong northeast gales on the trip, the 
worst weather T. Fleming Day says he has ever 
experienced on this trip. On Monday, when 
the storm was at its height, the helmsman was 
lashed to the wheel. One heavy sea caught 
Thomas D. Bowers, the designer, who was 
acting as second mate, threw him across the 
deck and through the rail, where he hung with 
his head in the water, his rubber boots having 
caught in a life line. Mr. Day jumped to his 
rescue as the yacht took a weather lurch and 
succeeded in pulling him on board. The daily 
runs of Ilys were 120, 170, 172, 181 miles. 
The captain of Insep reported a rough voy¬ 
age, but no accidents. The summary follows:

The owners of these boats were anxious to 
race home. Hearing this, the Crescent Athletic 
Club of Brooklyn cabled an offer of a cup, 
the finish to be off the club house at Bay 
Ridge. The offer was accepted promptly, and 
Ilys, Heather and Insep started on their home 
race on Mondav morning.

Cedarhurst Y. C. 
The new Cedarhurst Y. C., which has a house 
at Lawrence, has a class of one-design boats 
that are to race every Saturday during the sea¬ 
son. These boats were built at Amityville from 
designs by Cox & Stevens. 
They are 23 feet over all, 15 feet on the water¬ 
line, 6 feet 6 inches beam and 23 inches draft. 
They have 750 pounds of outsiOe lead ballast 
and spread 259 feet of canvas. They are 
rattling good little boats, well built and very 
seaworthy. Their names and owners are: Alba¬ 
tross, H. W. Williams; Titina, Crawford Bur¬ 
ton; Cygnet, Rene La Montagne; Kale, Franklin 
B. Lord; Moustique, Alfred L. Norris; Reverie, 
O. W. Bright; Teal, Flenry Whiton; Wayward, 
Thomas Denny; The Ante, Lindsley Tappin, and 
an unnamed, owned by John J. Lawrence, and 
Alcyone, which was owned by Daniel Chauncey, 
Jr., who died last week. 
The first race for these boats was won by 
Moustique. The Cedarhurst Club has purchased 
the houseboat The Moorings, built by Robert 
Jacob for his own use, and has it moored off 
Lawrence for use as a club house. It makes 
a fine house for the members and they gather 
there to watch the races. 
They raced last Saturday again in a fresh 
southwest breeze and the elapsed times were; 
Teal, 1.46.40; Wayward, 1.47.27; Reverie, 
1.47.31; Moustique, 1.47.49; Kale. 1.47.58; Alba¬ 
tross, 1.48.44; Cygnet, 1.48.51; Titina, 1.48.59. 
CEDARHURST Y. C. HOUSE. 
The annual regatta of the New Rochelle Y. 
C. sailed last Saturday was marred because of 
lack of wind. It was light from southeast at 
the start, but held so light all the afternoon 
that the committee had to shorten the courses 
to once around. The three remodeled 57-foot- 
ers, Istalena, Aurora and Winsome, made their 
first appearance this season. These sailed iiyi 
miles, and Istalena won by 6m. 13s. The first 
leg was a broad reach to Parsonage Point. 
Istalena got away first with Winsome under her 
lee. and Aurora being forced the wrong side 
of the mark, had to put back and lost three 
minutes. On the wind, the second leg,, Ista¬ 
lena improved her position, and Aurora passed 
Winsome, that yacht finding a soft spot in 
Hempstead Harbor. It was a broad reach 
home with booms to starboard. 
Aspirant, Gardenia and Memory met in the 
next class over the same course, and Aspirant, 
skilfully handled by the Hanan Bros., was a 
F. I!, lord’s KALE. 
winner. In the race for 30-footers, one-design, 
six started, and Atair won by 34s. from Phryne 
and 50s. from Alera. 
The American Y. C. one-design 21-footers 
raced in a class by themselves, as their owners 
have agreed to do this season, and not in the 
handicap class. The first race for these boats 
was won by T. J. Dwyer’s Rascal, with Flowdy 
second. F. G. Stewart started Princess in the 
25-foot class and won handily. The results in 
other classes are shown in the summaries;
