though II might have been first tried on less
important and valuable boat than the Columbia
Many yacLtsmen held grave doubts as to
whether the hollow cylinder OF steel plating
would endure the enormous strains that are
put on the racing mast OF a 9O-foot cutter,
and the result after the first half-hour Of trial
showed that the doubts were not misplaced. The
result Of this accident Is now expected to preju-
dice sailors against steel masta They certainly
want spar that they cut away with axes
when ii breaks, and not thing that will lie
down in the water and cannot be removed

now going back to her Oregon pine mast. a
splendid and trustworthy SPAR which most peo-
pie hope she will retain.
Tracngs are given here from photographs OF
the Columbia and the Shamrock. which have
been reduced by the aid Of the camera TO the
same size as nearly as possible. The solid line
sketch is Of the Shamrock and the dotted line
outline is Of the Columbia. These tracings are
interesting. and leave no room for doubt on
various disputed points. The first Of these 10 be
mentioned is that in spite Of all the reports to
the contrary. the canvas hoist OF the Columbia IS
a long way greater than on the Shamrock. The
Shamrock's hoist Of maiusail is markedly less
than the Columbia's though there is a good deal
i
possesses The main boom of the Columbia sits
lower than the Shamrocks, but In the photo
graph the Columbia was somewhat careened
under canvas pressure, while the Shamrock was
upright In spite Of this the topmast and work
Ing topsau of the. Columbia extend into the air
apparently good twelve or fifteen feet higher
than the Shomrocka There is thus also
large area for an excess Of jbtopsail on the
Columbia
The base line for sail area measurement on the
Shamrock is. however. undoubtedly greater
Taking the scale from the 9ofoot water line
on both boats. the draughtsman of these trac-
ings says that the Shamrock from bowsprt
end to malnboom end is nearly ten feet in excess
