YACHTS our OF COMMISSION.
Yachting Comes High. Even While the
 Boats are at Rest. ..s.

1achtlng comes High, Even While the
 Boats are at Rest.
 A forest of masts on the water front in South Brooklyn shows where the pleasure boats owned by wealthy New Workers are stored for the winter. The masts are packed so closely together that if it were not for the ironwork and rigging with which they are stayed one might almost think that a forest of dead trees stood there. From Twenty second to Twenty seventh street yachts are stored, and they are packed so closely together that their hulls touch one another. Long piers have been built from the shore and the yachts are moored alongside them. Outside one row is another and then another until one wonders how they were packed so closely without doing damage to each other while they were being put in.
 These piers are about quarter of a mile long. At the end If the line ia an open channel and then comes the Erie basin, where there are more yachts, mostly large ones. From the South Brooklyn shore the masts of these boats in Erie basin seem to mingle with those in the South Brooklyn yards, so that 1t is impossible to count the mum Der of spars that tower in the air.
 Go on further toward Bay Ridge, and there are more basins, and in. them more yachts, so that by walk along this water front one can get some idea of the size of the pleasure fleet that is in commission in this harbor in the summer
 Over. in New Jersey are still more yacht basins at Communipaw and Bay onne. There are some at Staten Is land; others on the Harlem river at Morris Heights; more at City Island, and many yachts are laid up at Port Jefferson, Greenport, New London. Newport and Bristol.
 Many of the large boats, especially < the large steamers, are in the South Brooklyn basins. It has been estima- ted that standing at the foot of Twen- tysthird street one can look at the masts of a fleet worth ten million doI- lars.
 When an owner decides that he has had enough yachting, he orders his boat out of commission. His flag is hauled down with salute; then the vessel is taken to the basin, at which a berth has been engaged, and the work of dismantling begins. The crew, un- der the supervision of the captain, does

this work. It is only a fewfdays before the boat is stripped of everything per- ishable, covered to protect it from storms, and the crew paid off. The captain of a large vessel is engaged by the year, and he keeps an eye on the boat all winter. Usually one man--on a large vessel perhaps tWo-is kept to watch her day and night.
 As soon as the vessel reaches her berth the men in the various depart nlerlts get to work. The engineer force overhauls the engines. The fires are drawn, grates taken out, boilers over hauled, and then the engines are cleaned Much care is given to the del icate machinery. After thorough cleansing, each part is covered with vaseline, to protect it from damp; a cap Is put over the smokestack, and the work on the machinery is finished.
 The stewards care for the cabins and

the interior of the vessel outside of the engine.room. Carpets are taken up, folded and packed away. Many small, perishable articles are taken to some storehouse; and when the stewards fin ish their work there is little left of the luxurious fittings and furnishings which were So attractive to the yachts man and his guests in the summer. In some vessels, where the interior deco rations are very elaborate, the carvings are covered with cloths to protect them from dust and dampness.
 The sailors work on the deck and at the rigging. If the vessel has topmasts these are lowered. The running gear is all unrove and stored away. The standing gear is painted Every piece of metal work is covered. If the paint has been knocked off the steel hull in spots, fresh paint is daubed on. The patches are unsightly, but they serve

 On some of the more valuable vessels wooden sfanties are built on deck, com ,pletely covering the deckhouses and deck fittings. This is rather an expen- sive way of laying a boat up, but it IS a safe way, and when the yacht is wanted again the temporary covering can be taken down and stored until the return of winter.
 On sailing vessels everything but the lower masts is tawen off the boat. The sails are dried and stored ashore. The running and standing rigging, the deck fittings, such as matches and compan-
