SAIL PLAN OF SMALL SCHOONER YACHT—- 
Sonder Boats Abroad. 
Tue American sonder klasse boats, after win- 
ning at San Sebastian and Bilboa, have lost sev- 
eral races. On Tuesday, Sept. 10, the second 
race of the series was sailed in a light breeze, 
with calms and local puffs making very difficult 
sailing. 
They sailed twice around a nine-mile triangle. 
Spokane I. got away first, but Doriga overhauled 
her and led at the first buoy, continuing so to 
the finish. Marblehead was second to finish. 
Chewink VIII, Princesa de las Asturias, Dios 
Salve la Reina and Spokane I. finished in the 
| order given. 
On Wednesday, Sept. 11, Doriga won again in 
a light breeze, Chewink VIII. being second, the 
rest as follows: Dios Salve la Reina, Spokane 
1., Marblehead and Princesa de las Asturias. 
AMERICANS were for a time hopeful of win- 
ning some of the Spanish cups after losing in 
Germany, because Spokane won a race. But 
with the light winds that followed that race 
Doriga, a Spanish boat, built from American de- 
signs by Gardner, won three straight and so gets 
the King’s gold cup. 
The race on Sept. 12 was over a triangular 
course of nine miles. Marblehead and Dios 
—-DESIGNED 
BY MR. B. B. CROWNINSHIELD FOR 
Salve la Reina collided before the start, but 
sailed the course. The light wind conditions 
were exactly suited to Doriga and she led from 
start to finish. Princesa de las Asturias was 
second, Marblehead third, Dios Salve la Reina 
fourth, Spokane I. fifth and Chewink VIII. sixth. 
On Friday, Sept. 3, Marblehead won first prize, 
but Doriga gets the prize, having won three out 
of the series of five races. 
It is unfortunate that the Americans must 
return empty handed, but they have probably 
learned enough of foreign weather conditions to 
realize that it takes a different kind of a craft 
than one that might win off Marblehead. 

Atlantic Y. C. Race. 
ONLy two yachts sailed the mid-week regatta 
of the Atlantic Y. C. on Wednesday, Sept. 11. 
They were the two Q boats Soya and Spider, 
sailed by the wives of the owners of these boa‘s. 
Mrs. W. A. Barstow won the prize in Soya as 
the race was brought to a sudden end on the 
first round hy the threatening appearance of the 
sky on that day. A fierce squall swept across the 
bay soon after the boats had made snug at their 
moorings. The summary: 
Finish. Elapsed. 
Soya, Mrs. W. A. Barstow ......... 3 42 40 0 42 40 
Spider, Mrs, Hendon Chubb ........ 3 43 26 0 43 25 



MR. E. ATKINSON, OF NEW BEDFORD. 
Revival of Shipbuilding at Sag Harbor. 
AxutHoucn the days of the clipper ships and 
the Atlantic packets are nearly forgotten along 
the south shore of Long Island, several of the 
old shipbuilders of Sag Harbor have been 
stirred by the recent visit to the town of Walter 
Merchant, of Maine, who now lives in East- 
hampton. Mr. Merchant has proposed that a 
company be formed among the old builders of 
the town to build and remodel sailing vessels. 
The proposition has created a great deal of 
interest among the business men of the town. 
There are many still living who remember the 
days when Sag Harbor vied with Gloucester, 
Bath and many other prominent shipbuilding 
towns along the Atlantic coast to build the 
fastest sailing vessels. 
As early as 1780 ships were built in Sag 
Harbor, and many of the fastest sailing vessels 
of the Atlantic: were turned out of the yards 
there. In the War of 1812 several privateers 
were fitted out at Sag Harbor. 
Among the ships that made the little seaport 
famous as a shipbuilding town were the Han- 
nibal, Governor Clinton, Betsy, C. C. Ray- 
mond, Black Eagle, Weather Gage, Storm, 
Mary Gardner and Hamilton. Several of the 
last named boats were employed in the whaling 
industry, where they made their records as fast 
boats.
