YACHTING.
OCEAN RACES PLANNED FOR THE SEA
GATE YACHTsMEN.


The Atlantic Yacht Club is fortunate in having
a real sailor at its head. Commodore Adams did
not acquire his knowledge OF yachting on CLUB
veranda. Having been at for years in earlier
life. he knows that pinnacle and barnacle are In
some respects dissinnilar. and be bouse down
xsef pe:aant on = black night as well as anybody
This IL the kind OF man that Kicks at continu-
Gus millpond sailing on the Sound, and he has
now arranged for the cruising fleets
OF his club These will In at the end OF the
ordinary club cruise TO Shelter Island The yachts
will leave Shelter Island and sail outside Long
Island TO Sandy Hook
There will be race for sloops and cutters. as
well as for schooners. and the new arrangement
seems about 10 be the forerunner OF many annual
ocean contests. When Commodore Morgan OF the
New-York Yacht Club tried three years ago TO
break the monotony of the annual drift to New
port he was actuated by the same love for deep
sea sailing and he offered huge prizes in the hope
OF making success of the proposed races TO
Bar Harbor The prizes to be given for this years
outside contests will not be valuable from
monetary point Of view. but there many yachts
men who for an ocean race do not require any
further temptation than the CHARGE TO have II.
Commodore Adams will give cup for schooners
OF which the value will be $50 and. a first
prize for the cutter and yawl class he will give
$50 cup. General Thomas L. Watson the feet
captain OF the club. will give Sl25 as a second
prize for schooners and 500 a second prize for
cutters and yawls. The chairman OF the House
Committee. Barlow S. Weeks. will give a 500 third
prize for schooners and SIS third prize for the
single-masted vessels and yawls

raced with and beat Caldwell Colts Dauntless
