BENSONHURST, THE. MOWER BOAT THAT IS LEADING 
BAY S CLASS OF SLOOPS. 
vicious squalls till their decks went under. At 
11:40, when these boats started, the wind was 
harder than ever, and yet they set their foresail, 
and soon after crossing a couple of them sheeted 
out their maintopsails. They had the line to 
themselves: Everyone kept clear of it, most ot 
the smaller boats staying in Larchmont Harbor 
until it was time for their class to start. We 
by this time decided three reefs would be ample 
sail, so tied ‘it in. 
Two old veteran schooners started to-day, 
Katrina and Eclipse, and it was a welcome sight 
to see two such staunch old timers slashing 
through the seas. “Eclipse unfortunately split her 
mainsail on the second round and had to quit, 
but Katrina covered the course in good shape. 
Effort had a sail over, but all three of the 57- 
footers were in it for blood. Aurora, sailed by 
Harry Maxwell, won out. Eleanor won in her 
class as Gardinia withdrew. Five of the six New 
York thirties covered the course, Minx winning. 
One of them, Phryne, reefed down, carried away 
her main boom. All the raceabouts, regular 
little dolphins in bad weather, covered the course 
with Pretty Quick as the winner. In Class P 
Regina beat Sue. Two Larchmont 21-footers 
started, but neither finished, one withdrew, and 
Follette carried away her mast. In Class QO Joy 
was dismasted coming to windward, the Gardner 
boat Dorothy winning. In the Q special class 
a Seawanhaka knockabout, Gloria, was the only 
one to finish. 
In the first division of the handicap 
Tanya won from us on Naiad by 19s. corrected 
time. Busy Bee won the second division, and 
the yawl Grace II. in the third division. Hun 
defeated Ace and Hamburg in the 18-footers. 
White Lady finished alone in the 18ft cat class, 
the tables showing who won in the special classes. 
Two Manhasset Bugs upheld the honors’ by 
covering the course, Skeeter as usal winning, 
and three little dories did the same, Tautog win- 
ning. The summary:

The big sloop Gardenia fouled something and 
withdrew. “The little r5ft. sloop Mist, owned by 
R. P. Clark, capsized when hit by a vicious 
squall, the two men being rescued by the steam 
yacht Florence, owned by Com. A. H. Alker, of 
the Manhasset Bay Y. C. 
The 15-footer Nora, owned by Lewis Iselin, of 
New Rochelle, also capsized and sank on this 
same leg of the course, the first one, where hard 
squalls off the shore hit the racers on a close 
reach for the Scotch Caps buoy. 
W. H. Rogers and a companion were sailing 
the 15ft. catboat Queenie when she capsized and 
they were picked up by Mr. Clarkson Cowl’s 
launch that had just rescued Nora’s crew, while: 
the sail yacht Florence towed Queenie into Larch- 
mont. : 
Joy, dismasted in the middle of the sound, wes 
towed into Larchmont Harbor, as was one of the 
Larchmont 21-footers, reported to be Follette, 
owned by Mr. Leon Garcey, that was also dis- 
masted. 
Okee, the little long distance race winner, be- 
came unmanageable and smashed into the mark 
boat, carrying away her ~bowsprit and _ then 
smashed into the club launch. 
Queen met Elmina on the beat to windward 
and forced the latter about when she had the 
right of way, being on the starboard tack, so 
Queen, having disqualified herself, gave up the 
race. The schooner Ingomar split her foresail 
from luff to leach along the foot and continued 
under mainsail and jibs only. 
The schooner Eclipse split her mainsail and 
withdrew, as it put her out of the. running.
