ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB.

The first match of the season of this club took place yes-
terday. The prizes were three pieces of plate, of the value
respectively of £lOO, £3O, and £2O, the course being from
Gravesend round the Nore Light and back. The following
vessels entered :—The Julia yacht, 113 tons, Mr. G. F. Moss,
owner; Rose of Devon, 148, Mr. E. Johnson; Christabel,
52, Earl Annesley ; Muriel, 40, Mr. H. Bridson ;
Oimara, 167, Mr J. Wylie; Vanguard, 60, Col-Verschoyle;
Vindex, 45, Mr A Duncan ; Fiona, 77, Mr E. Boutcher.
There were three prizes—one of £lOO for the first vessel,
£5O for the second, and £2O for the third. Time allow-
ance, 20 seconds per ton, but no time allowed for ton-
nage above 100 tons. This arrangement with regard to the
time allowance was not approved of by the owner of the
Fiona, and he consequently declined to start his vessel.
The steamer Eagle, which accompanied the match, reached
Gravesend at 11 o'clock, and Lord Alfred Paget directly
started the yachts at a little more thin half-spent ebb. They
all cast to starboard, and made a short heard on the Essex
shore, and commenced a hard beat down the river
against the south-east breeze. The Nore was
rounded by the Oimara at 2h 52m 40s ; Vanguard,
2 54 8; Rose of Devon, 3 7 25 ; and Vindex, `3 15.
The yachts ultimately got back to Gravesend and terminated
the match, as follows:—Rose of Devon, 6h 18m 50s ; tan-
guard, 6, 19, 4 ; Oimara, 6, 21, 3 ; Julia, 6, 30 ; Christabel,
6, 30, 10; Muriel, 6, ; Vindex, 6, 31, 14. The Van-
guard won the fist prize by time, the Muriel the second,
and the Vindex the third ; but Mr Duncan protested against
he Vanguard taking the prize, on the ground that she had
iolated the "rule of the road." no protest has been ro
ferred to the Sailing Committee.
