gotten sea tales reprinted with some new ones 
and good continued stories. It was published 
by the Frank A. Munsey Co., but in the Janu¬ 
ary, 1908. number they announced its end. Too 
bad. It was a shame to stop so interesting a 
magazine. 
The Bayside Yacht Club Log Book, started in 
May, 1907, has a blue and white cover, and is a 
very unique little club paper that keeps the club’s

patriotism alive during the cold, idle winter 
months for the price of 10 cents a copy; $1 a 
year. 
The last entry in this fleet of magazines is 
the Motor Boating Magazine—10 cents a copy; 
$1 a year—edited by W. L. Dudley, who got out 
its first number in December, 1907, with a cover 
design printed in red and blue on white paper. 
This also has made a bid for the motor boat 
trade ' 
Out of the twenty-four magazines started, as 
described, there are, not counting the trade 
papers or club papers, but six magazines in 
existence to-day that we know of, namely: 
1. Forest and Stream, started in 1873. 
2. Rudder, started in 1896. 
3. Motor Boat, started in 1904. 
4. Power Boating, started in 1905. 
5. Yachting, started in 1907. 
6. Motor Boating Magazine, started in 1907. 
But for all the literature and thousands of 
yachting pictures illustrating these magazines, 
let us be thankful to the men who started them, 
even if they did fail to keep their papers run¬ 
ning. The bookcase still stands, and while 
winter winds whistle about the buildings, we can 
sit, smoke and look over the records of the good 
times past and dream of the good times to come. 
Since compiling the above article on yacht 
magazines, we have received a notice that the 
Aquatic Monthly and Nautical Magazine ran 
into eight volumes or till 1876, and was then 
further extended as Brentano’s Aquatic Monthly 
in a new series of four volumes, starting April, 
1879 and ending in the early part of 1881. 
Two new magazines also have appeared on 
the first of March of this year (1908), one pub¬ 
lished at Augusta, Ga., and the other at Phila-

and the latter the 
Yachtsmen’s 
Gravesend Bay Races. 
The schedule of races laid out by the 'Yacht 
Racing Association of Gravesend Bay for the 
season of 1908 will keep the yachtsman in those 
waters busy all summer. There will be fourteen 
races in the championship series, instead of six 
as they had last year, and to qualify, a boat must 
sail in at least ten of the races. The dates run 
from June 20 to Sept. 19, inclusive, taking in 
every Saturday between those dates. 
The dory class will also be a recognized 
feature of this sason’s races, and their record 
also will be computed by points won in this 
series of races. 
In all there will be nineteen races, beginning 
on Decoration Day and ending on Sept. 26, as 
follows: 
May 30—Atlantic Y. C. 
June 6—Bensonhurst Y. C. 
June 13—M. and F. C. 
June 20—Atlantic Y. C. 
June 27—Brooklyn Y. C. 
July 4—Atlantic Y. C. 
July 11—Bensonhurst Y. C.
