The English yachting authorities are criti-
cising Sir Thomas Liptons attempts to
maintain secrecy regarding the build of the
Shamrock. The Yachtsman says: "The
absurd air of mystery is retained to the last,
though the cup defender was racing the De-
fender when the Shamrock was put into the
water. If highly satisfactory photograph
could be obtained, there is hardly time for
the Herreshoffs to build new vessel much,
no doubt, as they would like to do So" In
conclusion the article alludes to the "fcti.
cious enthusiasm attending the building of
Sir Thomas Lipton's yacht.
