HINGHAM Y. C. ONE-DESIGN CLASS——SAIL 
These boats are now all in process of construc- 
tion and well along. Plainly finished but well 
built and supplied with Cousens & Platt sails 
their cost is but $175 each, almost unbelievably 
cheap. 
A schedule of races promises them a contest 
every Saturday throughout the coming summer, 
and handicap events for the older boats and 
power craft provide plenty of sport for the hun- 
dred odd members and 51 boats on the rolls of 
the club. 
The whole idea of this club is well typified by 
the statement of its Executive Committee: “We 
wish to boom the sport but have no desire to 
rate high as a mere social club.” 
The principal dimensions of 
class boats follow:

ANEMONE ReporteD.—The British built ketch 
Anemone, owned by Mr. Charles L. Tutt, New 
York Y. C., which boat sailed from New York 
on Dec. 14 for San Diego, Cal., reached Punta 
Arenas, Chili, on Feb. 22. Punta Arenas is on 
the Straits of Magellan. The yacht has covered 
about 6,400 miles in about 7o days.

British Letter. 
DuRABILITY OF IRON YAcHTS.—The prejudice 
which many people have against sailing yachts 
built of iron should receive a rude blow after 
reading the account of the strange adventures of 
an old British schooner yacht during the gales in 
the early part of February. The Isidora, 89 tons, 
built as fargback as 1852, was on her way from 
Wivenhoe to Plymouth when on the night of Feb. 
9 she was driven on to the North Goodwin sands 
in a strong westerly gale. Her crew took to the 
boat, and after battling with wind and sea for ten 
hours managed to reach Margate. The yacht, by 
some extraordinary means, freed herself from 
the sands and, although she had lost some of her 
spars and most of her sails, blew across the 
Buxey Sands and went ashore on the Essex coast 
off Clacton-on-Sea. Here the crew of the life- 
boat took charge of her and took her to Harwich. 
She had lost her topmasts, mainboom, mainsail 
and tiller, but was making no water and her hull 
appeared to be absolutely uninjured. Considering 
Isidora draws 13ft. of water it seems almost in- 
conceivable how she cleared all the shallows and 
sandbanks on her journey from the Goodwins to 
Clacton, Iron or steel have never been in high 
favor as materials for the hulls of racing yachts, 
though there have been instances every now and 
again of vessels so constructed. Three of the 
late G. L. Watson’s big boats were built of steel 
and iron or steel alone, viz., Vanduara, Wendur 
and Thistle. Galatea, which, like Thistle, was 
an unsuccessful challenger for the America Cup, 
was also built of steel, and all these vessels are 
as sound to-day as when they were built, although 
the youngest is 20 years old. 
Kartapv.—The purchase of the first class cutter 
Kariad by Sir James Pender, who has raced the 
fine yawl Brynhild for some years in the big han- 
dicap class, is the talk of the moment. Kariad is 
to be taken in hand as soon as possible, and was 
to have gone south to Gosport to have some 
cabin alterations, etc., made by Messrs. Camper 
& Nicholson, As it happens, however, she is not 
likely to be liberated from Port Glasgow, where 
she has been lying, before the middle of March,
