THE new 7oft. gasolene power yacht Mao II. 
on Sunday approached the drawbridge over the 
ship canal and tooted to get through. As sev- 
‘eral subway trains were passing it was some time 
before the bridge could open and in the mean 
time the-.strong tide carried the yacht down to- 
ward the bridge. Going astern only served to 
swing the yacht broadside on, for as anyone 
who has tried backing motor boats has found 
-the slap of a right handed screw throws the 
stern to port and the rudder in many cases fails 
to have any effect. That was the case here. 
Finally she drifted down and came broadside on 
against the abutment with quite a hard bump 
in spite of fenders and boat hooks. By this time 
the draw was open and the yacht steamed ahead 
to turn and come at it head on, but instead of 
turning to starboard with the screw to help him 
the captain tried to swing her around to port. 
The result was she took a wide circle that neces- 
-Sitated full speed astern to prevent ramming the 
rocky shore. Backing up she refused to turn her 
bows toward the*bridge. Her owner got ex-

So sideways the tide swept her through, but I 
noticed as they started up and swune her bows 
to starboard she swung quickly enough because 
the side thrash of the propeller was throwing 
her stern the opposite way. 
Ln ed 
Tue fact that the speed launch Den broke in 
two on a wave while speeding on the Sound off 
Bridgeport is no discredit to the racing fleet in 
general. In all trades there some one who 
will try to exceed the possible and here we have

an illustratiom. Last year Den rolled over in 
trying to make a turn, actually capsized, and 
now she breaks in two and sinks. Eperience 
comes high, but we must have it.
