Living on Yachts.

There must be a large semi fashionable
floating population around New York
during the summer season. All over the
harbor and up the sound, as far as
Greenwich, you will find yachts, varying
from $500 sloops to $50, 600 schooners,
anchored in quiet bights and inlets, and
serving as lodgings for their owners and
their owners families. On the larger
vessels men and women live, sailing from
place to place as the humor catches
them. On the smaller ones bachelor
parties hold merry reve. These latter
are nearly always young men in business
in the city, who attend to their occupa-
tions by day, and 90 cruising from Satur-
day till Monday. Many of these merely
lease a yacht for the season. They keep
the pantry full of cold meats and easily
prepared canned stuff, and take their
able bodied meals ashore. One seaman
serves to help them sail ,hcir craft and
to take care of it when they are in the
city. 1t does not cost them much, if
anything, more than to pay room rent
and board ashore, and they have a great
more fun while the temperature is high.
