PRIZES AND MONEY WON BY FOREIGN CRAFT
IN 1se7-LARGE TOTALS SHOWN.
II would be interesting TO be able to compare the
years winnings OF the foremost American yachts
with those OF the English racers with her
two-thousa nd-dollar prize won in the race to
the coast Of Maine the schooner Colonias rake
of must have been large. because, although
she could not add the Goelet thousand TO
her total. yet her winnings In the Larch-

say nothing OF the trophies and money won in

now published the 1881 record OF 100 principal
yachts giving In each ease the name Of the owner
and designer the rig. the rating. the number OF

won. the total number Of prizes won and the total
amount Of money

record IL great. but It's value to the yachting woNd

as has been noticed In previous years. The Aisa

the result OF eight first prizes and one other prize
out OF eighteen starts This is only her record in
the Mediterranean, and she also three cups a
silver and two gold medals. and two other prizes
The value, in cups and all. OF the Coionla's win

the time allowance given 10 her by the Emperor
