FOREST AND STREAM. 
Bermuda Power Race. 
Judging from the published lines of many of 
the boats which are being built for the New 
York-Bermuda race, all of them seem sea- 
worthy-looking, wholesome and comfortable 
craft; fit in reasonable weather to go anywhere, 
and fully able—if one may judge by their ample 
draft fore and aft, and the manner in which the 
sides of the cabin-trunk are merged, so to 
write, into the freeboard from the stem head to 
a point well abaft the middle third—to ride out 
a fairly hard gale at sea in comparative com¬ 
fort. Indeed, if they are only as well built as 
they are well designed as seaboats, we person¬ 
ally should care little how far we voyaged 
aboard any one of them; and we can wish 
British motor-boating no better than that their 
type may be freely adopted on this side of the 
Atlantic, 
Nevertheless, neither they nor the sea race 
for which they are intended appear to meet 
everybody’s approval; least of all that of a 
writer in the last issue of an American con¬ 
temporary, who compares the race in question 
# “to foolhardy voyages to Europe in diminutive 
* sail and row boats.” “Men,” he says—we are 
glad of that word, it expresses so much in this 
connection—“have made these trips and reached 
the other side of the ocean alive; other men will 
make similar trips in the future, and they, too, 
may reach their journey’s end in the cockle¬ 
shell they started in; but even so, neither es¬ 
tablishes the wisdom of thus flying in the face 
of Providence.” Proceeding, he says that the 
knowledge that motor boats can journey from 
New York to Bermuda does not warrant his 
risking his life in making the trip “because 
some one has seen fit to put up a mug which 
we may win if we are not lost on the way, and 
no one gets there before we do.” “Foolhardi¬ 
ness,” says he, “will never be synonymous with 
sport in my little dictionary.” Doubtless this 
Writer would be more comfortable at his hotel 
than on salt water. But still we do not suppose 
that any able-bodied man will take such criticism 
seriously. 
We take the above clipping from the London 
Yachting World. We approve it. The British 
Isles are surrounded by tempestuous waters, so 
that boats to navigate along the coasts must 
be strong and able. Thus the- English view of 
our boats means much. The taking of a vessel 
to Bermuda, if she complies with the conditions 
of the Bermuda race, is not dangerous, nor is 
it a foolhardy undertaking. The contemporary 
who so characterizes such a journey, cannot be 
very wise nor can he know his boats very well. 
This opinfon displays ignorance and a timidity, 
which it is one of the objects of this race to 
overcome and overcome it will be. 
Mr. Charles W. Lee, New York Y. C., owner 
of the well known power yacht Dreamer III., has 
passed an examination before the United States 
Local Inspectors of Steam Vessels and has ob¬ 
tained a first class pilot’s license to command 
steam and power vessels. Mr. Lee was prepared 
for his examination by Captain Howard Patter¬ 
son, president of the New York Nautical Col¬ 
lege. Government Examining Board will ex¬ 
amine in the near future Mr. H. N. Baruch, 
owner of the power yacht Hobcaw; Mr. William 
M. Lovering, owner of the power yacht Tringa; 
Mr. Ernest E. Lorillard, owner of the power 
yacht Ignita; Mr. David Banks, owner' of the 
schooner yacht Water Witch; George J. Bascom, 
owner of the sloop yacht Vorant II.. and George 
S. Runk, owner of the auxiliary schooner Mar¬ 
garet.

The raceabout, Rascal II. has been sold by Mr. 
Samuel C. Hopkins, of Catskill, N. Y., a mem¬ 
ber of the American Y. C., to Mr. W. Seymour 
Runk, of Philadelphia, a member of the Corin¬ 
thian Y. C., of that city, through the agency of 
Mr. Stanley M. Seaman, of New York. 
Rascal II. will be taken to Philadelphia some 
time during March, together with other boats 
of this class recently purchased by members of 
the same club, and will be raced weekly on the 
Delaware River off their club house.
