moderating to strong northerly all afternoon,

The laying over a day at Wortland meant 
that a rearrangement of the programme had to 
be made, and it was decided to leave out the 
visit to Brooklin. This was a disappointment 
to many, as they had wanted to have the beauti¬ 
ful sail through Eggemoggin Reach. Rockland 
was visited on Friday, and on Saturday the run 
was to Bar Harbor, where the fleet disbanded. 
There were more than 60 yachts in the harbor 
at the disbandment, and that is a remarkably 
good showing, considering the distance sailed 
and the weather experienced. Commodore 
James has put new life into the club, and under 
his leadership there is every indication of there 
being a boom in yachting and yacht racing. On 
the last two days the wind was very light and 
nearly all the time aft. The committee was 
authorized to stop the race at any point, so that 
the yachts might reach harbor early, and each 
racing craft had a steamer as convoy, and that 
steamer towed the yacht into the harbor. The 
run to Rockland was finished off Two Bush 
Light, and that to Bar Harbor off Great Duck 
Island. The summaries of the Rockland run 
follow:

Hempstead Harbor Tars Afloat. 
The special regatta of the Hempstead Har¬ 
bor Y. C. for the Gem class was a highly suc¬ 
cessful event. Eight boats entered and had a 
close and exciting contest for first place. H. F. 
Whitney’s Sapphire won over H. W. Maxwell’s 
Emerald by one minute. The class is new and 
the trying out showed it to be a speedy one as 
well. The judges used the power boat Silver- 
heels, owned by H. W. Maxwell, and followed 
the contestants over the 
course. The 
summary

Atlantic Y. C. 
The 25-footer Florence, formerly Manhasset, 
made her first appearance in the regatta of the 
Atlantic Y. C. last Saturday and won. The 
yacht has been purchased by R. A. Brown and 
she met More Joy, Soya and Joy. She got 
away well, but in the leeward position, and Soya 
and More Joy getting in a luffing match, enabled 
her to draw well ahead. She led all around the 
course, winning easily. The results follow:

boats to the line in twenty-one classes. This

sent over triangular courses that tried them on 
all points, and they sailed in a strong northerly 
wind in the morning, which lightened during 
the day and finally came out nearly south.
