The Queen, 15 tons, Captain Whitbread, was also
entered, but did not put in an appearance. The first prize,
presented by Mr. W. Massingham, was a very handsome
gilt clock and candelabra to match, inlaid with bleu du re/
porcelain ; the second, presented by Mr. Low, was /6,
valuable silver goblet, with festoons and clusters
fruit and flowers, both being manufactured by Bensolli
The yachts were to start from and get their own anchors,
course to the northward of the Nore Saud, through the
Five-fathom Horse and Gore Channels, outside Long 108°
buoy, and through Old Cudd Channel, crossing the lino
of bearing from Ramsgate east pier-head to the Gull
Stream light. Each yacht to tow or carry a gig or dingeYl
and have usual sea-going fittings. Time allowance'
yachts under 10 tons to be allowed two minutes per too'
under 15, one and a half minute ; and under 25 00e
minute.
The wind was north-east, and the morning looked as if
there would be more wind at sea than would suit the
smaller vessels. The Eva was first away, being both vet/
smart in getting her anchors and setting sail, all the yaclitS
canting to the southwards except the Dudu, which he
anchored too far in on the Kent shore in a very bad berth'
After tacking on the south shore, the Eva sent up a
headed topsail, and at East Tilbury led by three-quarte'r
of a minute, Dudu second, having passed the smalls
boats ; the little Dagmar third ; then Clytie and Aerolite'
Duch' did not set her topsails for some time, the others,
with the exception of the Aerolite, did so in the Lower goPe;
Below Thames Haven the Clytie, now third, set a small°,
jib. The Chapman was reached at 8 hrs. 30 min. a.m., clre
now a mile to windward of the Dudu. The Dagmar her
bore up, as did the Aerolita shortly after, the sea being f'
too heavy for such small boats ; and the Clytie, shot!'
handed, on reaching the Nore, went into Sheerness, he;
ing no chance against the Eva and Dudu, which Wer, ,
miles ahead, Eva going well, and with her time sill
ante of a minute and a half per ton well in 10121
Below the Nore both vessels sent down t4PPsel,
and housed topmasts. About 10 hours 20 't
entering the Five-fathom Channel, the Eva Ind
her boat, and by the time it was picked UP so,
she was again on her course the Dudu was close to h,ta
A fine race followed between the two, and the wind hel 10
right ahead numerous boards were male. The strurfog
was ended by the Eva, near the East Spaniard, spritiv
the jaws of her gaff and carrying away her main 1101 iv
block. An attempt was made to lash it, but it again Bb ro
way, and the Dudu having got a long lead the Eva Hof
up for Sheerness, having lost by accident all chaneeot
winning, which at one time seamed certain. Dudu, 1/er
alone, on rounding the West Last buoy hauled doW3 off
foresail, and going easy through the very heavy a°ber
Margate reached Ramsgate, and won, at 4.48 VII',
well-earned prize.
