BOSTON. Jan 16.-The Boston Herald
today publishes the following from GIas-
gov:
Designer Watson has taken the best
that he found in the S0-foot Bona and the
9o-foot yawI Sybarita. which is remark
ably fast in light airs and a good strong
boat in all kinds of weather. The Syba-
rita is without doubt the best boat Wat
son ever produced and he has not the
-aintest doubt that she can beat the
Shamrock I by as good margin as the
Columbia beat the shamrock.
The Sybarita beam was % feet ard
draft 10 feet. The new challenger VIII be
six inches wider in the beam, with six
inches more draft. This Will make her
the narrowest boat Of the three now being
built for the Cup races, and it shows
plainly the leaning OF WatSOn's mind. He
believes that beam such as he has given
Shamrock II is better for al-arCund per-
Torrance than the % feet which he gave
the NaIkyrie III
1T is noticeable fact that the new
challenger and thu Britannia have Exactly
the same beam dimensions. though the
challenger has more than TWO feet more
draft than the Prince of Wales old yacht
Mr. Watson has gone IN measure 20 the
canoe type Of Eidship section, more Ike

and the jubilee has but one foot more
beam than the new Upton challenger,

rock II measures 1876 feet over ali and is
designed to fUat 50 feet s inches water

In the shape Of her longitudinal sec
