WHERE THE SHAMROCK GAINS.

Thus In draught. ballastlng and lateral
support the Shamrock has the advantage. In
sail area she has another advantage In hav-
ing a much larger spread than the Column
bia and the oleverness Of Mr.. Fife has been
shown in the fact that his extra sail area costs
him nothing in the measurement
As is well known sail area and water line
length are both calculated TO ascertain the rae
ing length Of the yachts. and Fife has so de-
signed the Shamrock that she measures on the
water line one foot and nine inches less than
the Columbia. So that it may be said that none
Of his advantages cost him anything. The
draught Is not measured. and neither is the
beam power and the whole OF the excess or
sail area is more than paid for by the shortened
water line.
These facts OF themselves suggest great deal
a. TO the superiority, as whole. Of the design
ing That a slim boat with neither great depth
nor beam power. nor excessive sail area, should
actually give time to a large boat like the sham
rock would seem absurd If 1t were not indeed
too true and the results. as a whole. seem to
Suggest that the Shamrock is physically entitled
10 win in breezes that have any power IN them.
This does not mean that she Will take the cup,
as there are nnumerabe reasons why n boat
may not win. but considering the amount OF
forethOught and subtlety that has been put into
the challenger. she seems to have the cali on
structural points.

INFLUENCE OF DRAUGHT.

The exclusive news that was given in The
Tribune In regard to de real depth Of the Sham
rock has had effect upon public opinion. The
former statements. in both English and Amert-
can papers. were that both boats drew twenty
feet three inches. The Tribune had it straight
from one Of those the Shamrock that
the challenger's exact draught Of water was
twenty one feet six inches. That alone means a
good deal Besides this the Columbias draught
is by no means certain. Those who published 1t
1T twenty feet three inches may have been
guessing at her. as they certainly were at the
Shamrock, and 1t must be said that from view
underneath both boats the Columbia seems 10
have at least two feet less draught than the
Shamrock owing to the excessive length Of her
keel which is longer by from seven to ten feet
all the way up than the Columhias. the Sham-
rock is enabled to carry her lead laid out in
long. low line whereas the Columbia, having a
short fin as measured fore and aft the lead has
TO be put in high up on the fin. The consequence
is that Judging as well as the eye may tell. the
lead mine OF the Shamrock Is on the average AT
least three feet lower in the water than that OK
the Columbia The advantage Of this Will be
apparent to every one and needs no explanation
and It may be added that the height Of the CO.
lumbia's lead reaches TO seven feet from the
laveI Cf &c lowest parfS.

CIV A\CE
ALLOWANCE

ALLOWANCE.
The attempted race on Tuesday did a good
deal 10 clear the prospects Of the shamrock. Inc
fact that she was able to sail on practically even
terms with the Columbia for five hours and
half settled all doubt as 10 her being fast boat
in the llghtest airs. The winds on Tuesday were
about as light as they are made. and at the
Same time there was a good deal OF motion on
the water that was not created by the wind it
self This sometimes proved trying to both
racers whose sails were continually being emp
tied Of the email amount OF air that in them.
But now Sir Thomas Upton. and perhaps every
body else has seen how the challenger stands in
regard 10 what was considered her weakest
point
Sir Thomas admitted, when seen yesterday.
that the boats sailing under the conditions OF
Tuesday had pleased him greatly He said he
had expected a lot out OF the boat. and had got
t. He also said that she did little better, per
haps, than he expected. This. no doubt, was
owing to the fact that a great deal OF ballast
was taken out Of her after her trial tests and
before her official measurement At the lower
bobstay bolt the boat looked fully six inches
higher than she had appeared in her previous
tests off Sandy Hook. and it was to be expected
that she would sail much better in weather like
Tuesdays That removal of the ballast, how
ever may work two ways and it will remain
to be seen whether the boat is as stiff in fresh
winds ds she has been heretofore. 1t was noted
in Tuesdays sailing that the difference in the
careening Of the two boats was not marked
when they had the same winds. and these winds
fresh enough to list them. The shamrock GER
tainly careened more for that amount Of wind
than she has heretofore in American waters, and
the sensitiveness she showed to gentle pressures
marked her as being undoubtedly light wealth
er boat in her present conditions
WHERE a MISTAKE HAS BEEN MADE.
The account that has been given in The Trib-
une in regard to the midship sections Of both
boats being so entirely similar has done much
to explain William Flies designing Owing to
the high sides which the Shamrock has in her
upper hull a mistake has been almost uni
body 1t has been shown exclusively in The
Tribune that the mdship sections of both boats
when correctly sketched prove that they will be
about equally in the water regards their
upper hulls and it was certainly a surprise to
the writer to sec under both boats. and have
their most important curves skctched by good
draughtsman and civil engineer These curves
in both boats are so precisely similar that they
could hardly he told apart OF course. the
Shamrock is a wider boat but she does not, as
has been said sit in the water any more deeply
in proportion, and she has been designed 10
skim over the surface with the same facility as
the Columbia.
