Knickerbocker Y. C. 
The thirty-first annual regatta of the Knicker¬ 
bocker Y. C. was marred because of the fluky 
nature of the winds that prevailed last Satur¬ 
day on the Sound. Sixty-four yachts started, 
and until they were sent away there were all in¬ 
dications that the breeze would last, but it soon 
died out. It had been coming northwest, hut 
later in the afternoon came south and was fitful 
and fluky, so that the yachts were late in getting 
home, and many did not finish. The finishing 
times follow:

victory of the season in the regatta of the Edge- 
wood Y. C. last Saturday on Narragansett Bay.

course. The conditions were somewhat fluky, 
but toward the end of the race the wind came 
fresh from the southwest. In the Inter Bay 
class Bother won from Trouble and Ina. inis 
race was one held for the purpose of selecting

Bensonhurst 
The Bensonhurst Y. C. sailed its first regatta 
last Saturday afternoon on Gravesend Bay. 
Light winds from the south prevailed, and as 
the course selected gave a long windward leg 
the race was a good test of the abilities of the 
racers. Spider was the winner in the Q class. 
She defeated Gray Jacket by 45s. Spider and 
Soya were both ahead of Gray Jacket at the 
end of the first round. On the second round the 
wind freshened and Gray Jacket at once began 
to improve her position. She passed Soya, but 
could not quite catch Spider. The finish times

The season in Massachusetts waters 
opened on Decoration Day with an open regatta 
for association classes and for the Inter Club 
races. In all eighty-eight yachts crossed the 
line and raced in a brisk east wind. It rained 
occasionally during the afternoon. The feature 
of the day was the meeting of the new 31-foot- 
ers. Amoret, owned by C. B. and H. S. Whee- 
lock, and Mavourneen, owned by George Lee, 
raced against Wianno, owned by A. W. Stevens. 
These three were designed by George Owen and 
the two first named were built this year. Amoret 
won by a small margin from Mavourneen with 
Wianno third, but the victory was due more to 
clever handling rather than to extra speed in the 
model. After crossing the line Amoret took 
starboard tack, holding in toward Marine Park, 
while the others took port tack and held out into 
the full force of a head tide. Again when near 
Thompson’s Island, Amoret got in slack water, 
,-hile the others were bucking a head tide.
