The new sailing canoe of ex-Commodore 
Quick is all planked and ready for the deck. 
The hull shows all the characteristics of the 
scow he built last year, but has a rounded bilge, 
though an extremely hard one. She has con¬ 
siderably more sheer than last year’s boat, and 
the ends are drawn out somewhat finer—but in 
theory she is much the same. Mr. Quick has 
seen the Winchester men and gone them one 
better, so far as rigs are concerned, having 
adopted the “cat” rig, which probably has never 
been tried in a canoe before for racing purposes. 
The design and a full description of the canoe 
will appear in Forest and Stream shortly.
