Brooklyn Y. C. Regatta. 
The last regatta of the season of the Brook¬ 
lyn Y. C. was sailed on Saturday, Sept. 5, over 
the usual Gravesend Bay courses going first to 
Fort Hamilton and making the windward leg 
from Fort Hamilton to Buoy 11 in the larger 
classes and to Sea Gate in the smaller classes. 
The wind was south and quite fresh at times. 
Sue and Crescent fouled and protested. The 
race between these two was very hot and Cres¬ 
cent led by 5s. at the end of the first round. 
Then they came together each claiming the other 
was at fault, and the committee will have to 
settle 'the dispute. 
In the Q class Soya won a good race and 
M and F took another trophy, showing how ex- 
H pert her skipper Charley Camp is this year. The 
times at the end of the first round were: M
