The Week’s Racing. 
First Race of New York Y. C.—On June 7 
the first race of the season was held off the 
club station at Glen Cove for the O. D. C. 30- 
footers. The race was for a prize offered by the 
Model Committee, composed of James D. Spark- 
man, Albert Bradlee Hunt and Paul Eve 
Stevenson. Commodore Alker, of the Man- 
hasset Bay Y. C. placed his s. y. Florence 
at the disposal of the Regatta Committee. 
Owing to the illness of Mr. Oliver E. Crom- 
well, his place was taken by Mr. Walter C. Kerr. 
There were six boats entered for the race over 
a 1534-mile course, from Glen Cove, a reach to 
Milton Point, from thence a beat to Oak Neck 
Point, and a broad reach home. The boats were 
Atair, G. C. and G. E. Mayer; Adelaide II., Adee 
Bros.; Cara Mia, S. Wainright; Dahinda, W. B. 
Duncan, Jr.; Neola II., Geo. M. Pynchon, and 
Alerah, A: H. and J. W. Alker. There was a 
good breeze from the E., and the boats were 
well bunched at the start. Adelaide II., Cara 
Mia, and Alerah got over the line too soon, but 
did not heed the recall and were disqualified. 
Atair won a good, clean race by 2'%4m. from 
Dahinda, the second boat—officially. 
Commodore Vanderbilt attended the race in 
the North Star, and the 7oft. Rainbow was 
trying ‘out under Capt. Barr. Mr. Roy A. 
Rainey’s Invader was about tuning up. 
On Saturday, June 9, the Manhasset Bay Y. 
C. held its annual spring regatta, in which there 
were many yachts entered, and the event showed 
some good racing. The course was for all 
classes, 10% miles. The course was laid from 
Execution Rock to Parsonage Point buoy, from 
thence to the Weeks Point buoy in Hempstead 
Bay and home.

races for class M and below, the weather 
was not as good as it might have been, the wind

Two New Boats. 
THE Gravesend Bay Q class has in the last 
week had two new recruits added to its numbers. 
These boats are Mr. W. A. Barstow’s Soya and 
Mr. Hendon Chubb’s Spider. These boats are 
from the same design by Mr. Clinton H. Crane. 
They were both built at City Island by Mr. B. 
F. Wood, and are very fine examples of the 
yacht work of to-day. They are double-planked 
mahogany outside, and are good looking little 
vessels that, when they are tuned up should 
show good speed. The bow is of a type which, 
with the favor accorded the spoon bow of late 
years, has long been a stranger to our small 
boats, being very sharp, but in later develop- 
ments will no doubt be even more graceful. 
In a sea they do not pound or splash, and are 
very easy and comfortable, and are fine little 
ships for racing and day sailing, being fitted 
with little cuddies for shelter in case of rain, or 
to change into one’s racing clothes. 
The dimensions of both Soya and Spider are: 
Length over all, 36ft.; l.w.l., 25ft. “in.; breadth, 
7it. 6in., and draft, 5ft. 1o0in.
