NAUTICAL LUXURY.
THE ExTRAvAGANT COST OF KEEP.
ING YACHTS IN COMMISSION.

An Estimate of the Expenses as Viewed
From the Standpoint of Moderation.
What Yachting Has In Common With
Housekeeping.
1t has been said that it cost the owner Sl0,-
900 to keep the Huron in commission during
the yachting season. This statement has led
many people to wonder whether such an out
lay is customary among yacbtSmen.
There are few yachtsmen who devote them
selves entirely to their vessels during the sea-
son, so it must follow that many other pleas
ures occupy their leisure summer time, to say
nothing Of the remaining eight or nine months
of the year In order to keep up the same
monetary pace in all tho festivities which en-
sue between New Years and Christmas, the
$4,000 yachtsman should have an income of
not less than 500, 600, provided he has any in
tention of living within his resources or Of
accommodating a nest egg.
ESTIMATING TIE COST.
Boston yachtsmen are not, as rule, so ex-
travagant as their New York brethren, and
many of them seem TO think that unless a
man is prodigal in his salt water hospitality
he should be able 20 weather the season with
out crossing the 5000 lire. The Huron's
owner must have thrown a good deal of his
money overheard if his boat cost him $1,000
every year, said gentleman who OWLS one of
the1argest and best known yachts in eastern
waters, and as the unhappy proprietor Of the
| Huron had not the reputation of an extraVa-
CANT host there would seem to be great deal
Of truth in this assertion.
A vessel ike the Huron could be launched
complete, according to the statements of the
leading builders il this section of the country,
at q cost OF from $4,000 to SIS, 600 at most.
The Jolly tars on board would number eight
or nine men before the mast, a captain, a
! mate, cook, steward and perhaps a cabin
boy. Tho pay Of the crew will average about
| $50 per month for each ordinary seaman,
from $50 to 500 per month for the captain,
from so to SO for the mate, and, according
to the epicurean tastes of the owner, the
cooks wages would range from that of the
heave-o my -timbers tar to that Of the gallant
end gold laced captain. Some yacht owners
who are inclined to put on STYLE" will select
from their rope-hauling minions a second
mate, -bosun' and quartermaster for an ad
ditional wage Of IS every thirty days Put
ting the number of working crew of q crack
yacht ct twelve and fixing the cost therefor
according to the following literally calculated
table, the expense of maintenance can be
| easily determined.
