NORTH SHORE BREEZE. 
In Yachting Circles. 
Business is now rushing at the Man- 
chester boat yards. Indications point to 
a busy season. New life isto be infused 
into the sport this season all along the 
North Shore. Manchester is to be re- 
presented in the sonder class try-outs for 
the German races, for a boat for the 
Manchester Yacht club syndicate is now 
very nearly completed at David Fenton 
(36:28. 
The first new boat to touch the water 
at Manchester this season was put over 
from White’s yard the first of the week. 
This was an 18-footer, built for A. W. 
Finlay, from plans by John F. Small. 
After the try-outs in the early summer 
the boat will be shipped to Cleveland, 
O., where she will represent the M. Y. 
R. A. in the lake races. 
White is building a 31-foot cabin 
cruiser for Roland C. Nickerson, a 
young man who attends school in Bos- 
ton preparing to enter Harvard in the 
fall. Mr. Nickerson will use her on 
the South Shore this season. 
T. L. White has sold E. C. -Fitch’s 
““Taku,’’ a 37-ft. launch, to James T. 
Manson of Boston, and she will later be 
put in condition at White’s. The 
‘““'Taku’’ is four seasons old, and was 
used two years ago by Mr. Fitch on the 
St. Lawrence. She has a hunting cabin. 
At the David Fenton Co. yard five 
sonder boats are being built. There are 
twelve of these boats to be built this year 
and from these three will be selected to 
meet the Germans at Marblehead in Au- 
gust. The Manchester company is build- 
ing five of these twelve, which speaks well 
for the local concern. Three of the 
boats are practically completed and ready 
to launch,—those for Frank B. Crown- 
inshield, Herbert M. Sears and F. Lewis 
Clark. One for Richard Boardman and 
Chas. W. Foss is in the hands of paint- 
ers, while the one for the Manchester 
Yacht club syndicate is ready for the 
painters. All five boats are from designs 
by E. A. Boardman. 
The houseboat owned by John C. 
Phillips of Boston and North Beverly 
has been sold to Thomas J. Egan of 
Huntington, N. Y. The boat has been 
at the David Fenton Co. yard all winter 
and is now being put in commission 
ready to launch about May 1. Mr. 
Egan will use her for cruising this sum- 
mer. ‘The boat is 64 feet long, 17-foot 
beam, and has a 25 h. p. Standard. 
Mr. Fenton has built two 17-foot 
launches to be used as tenders at Mar- 
blehead this summer, one for John A. 
Burnham and the other for C. H. Foss, 
the diamond man, of Boston. Each 
boat has a 5h. p. Sterling and automobile 
gteer.
