A WHALEBACK YACHT.
It Wa Built bottom Up and Rolled
Into the Water.

IutO the Wotor
Captain James N. Pierce, a veteran
pilot OF the Atlantic coast, who holds
licenses in various ports, arrived in
Baltimore from Norfolk in his whale
back fishing smack Capalca, a curious
craft that was built upside down, in
side out. wrong end first and finally
rolled down a hill, turning seven times
in its descent into the mud, fished out
the next day and foated. The last
named process constituted her launch
ing.
The novel craft is thirty-seven feet
over all, even feet four inches beam,
four feet six inches depth aft, and
eighteen inches forward, says the
Baltimore American. She was built
OF white oak ribs. with cedar planking,
with house and siding of North Caro-
lima pine. She is in three water-tight
compartments. Her building was be-
gun In Norfolk, Va, two years ago,
and she was partly finished at Camden.
N. d. When the last touches are put
upon her there is no telling where she
will be. On her forward deck is a
comfortable house in which the cap
tain has his spring bed, cooking uten-
sils, and other useful articles. Just
aft is . cockpit five feet long, semi
circular forward, with room for
four men to fish. Aft OF that is what
constitutes the amidships ~watertight
compartment, which Captain Pierce
uses as a well for fish, and it averages
20 inches in depth. Aft OF that, and
on the ~overhang, will be when COM
pleted. a store room for fish or any,
thing else. Beneath this and the
house forward are watertight compart-
ments. The rig is of the old ..bum
kctch" pattern, with two masts, and
she carries three sails, q jib, a main
sail and a jigger. Her hull has a
regular rocker-built bottom, and
stands the sea admirably. II capsized
she will almost right herself. Captain
Pierce says he sailed his craft over 800
miles without a rudder. She is named
after the famous bark Capalca, which
rescued the unfortunate Fenians from
Van Dieman's land years ago, when
Captain Pierce was mate OF her. Can
tain Pierce Is on q cruise in the bay.
and is accompanied only by his New
~foundland dog Rover. He claims Bal
timore as his home, but lives aboard
his strange craft. He is 55 years old.
