Larchmont Y. C. 
Elena, Morton F. Plant’s new schooner, 
made her first appearance in a race at the re¬ 
gatta of the Larchmont Y. C. last Saturday. 
She sailed against Irolita, formerly Queen, 
owned by E. Walter Clark, and as was ex¬ 
pected, she won easily. Elena rates 89.6 and 
Irolita 85.1, so that the new yacht had to allow 
some time, to be exact. 3m. 6s. over the course 
of 30.5 nautical miles. This was somewhat of a 
surprised, as it has been generally thought that 
Elena would rate in class B and not in class A. 
The yacht made a fine appearance and did well in 
the light wind. The course was twice around a 
triangle going to the eastward first. The wind 
tide. Adventuress finished first with Ironde- 
quoit second. On corrected time Irondequoit 
won the race. 
In class P, Joyant, Corinthian and Windward 
met and sailed twice around a triangle of 5.5 
miles, rather a short course for such boats. 
This, however, was a mistake which will be 
remedied in future races. Joyant took the lead 
at the start and held it to the finish, with Cor¬ 
inthian second. 
From a class of eleven starters, Ralph N. 
Ellis won with his 30-footer Caprice. This is 
his first victory of the season. Alera was sec¬ 
ond and Phryne third. The regatta was the 
largest of the season so far, and was a good 
one. Horace E. Boucher, Rutledge Schmidt

was light from S. by W. It strengthened a little 
and hauled to S.W. before the finish. Reaching. 
Elena drew away from Irolita, but on the wind 
Irolita made a decided gain. This may, how¬ 
ever, have been due to different winds, and it 
will take a good thrash to windward to de¬ 
termine which is the better yacht. At the end of 
the first round Elena led by 7m. 13s., and at 
the end of the second round the difference was 
12m. ios., so that Elena did not make as big a 
gain on the second round as on the first. Iro¬ 
lita was, however, helped by a freshening wind. 
In class M of sloops there were Gardenia, 
Adventuress and Irondequoit. These yachts 
sailed twice around a triangle of 11.5 miles. 
23 miles in all. At the end of the first round 
Gardenia had the race well in hand, but on the 
second round she made the mistake of carry¬ 
ing too big a jib topsail and held in too far to 
the Long Island shore getting out of wind and 
and Butler Whiting were members of the com¬ 
mittee in charge and handled the boats well. The
