The flagship Challenger, the schoon-
ers Martha and Chispa and the sloop
Curlew left Sausalito at various times
on Saturday afternoon with a good
breeze. The schooners White Wings

At :35 o'clock p. m. she met the flag
ship Challenger, the schooners Martha
and Chispa and the sloops Thetis and
Curlew making out or Mare Island
Straits. The yawl Tramontana and the
sloop Surprise also cruised up TO San
Pablo Bay. The wind was light on the
way down, the yachts finishing off Sau-
salito at the following times:
Challenger, $40 p m; Chispa, Ills p.
m.; Martha, 7:16 p. M: Curlew, 7:51:30
D. M: Thetis, 7:59:55 p. M. The schoon-
err White Wings, not having reached
the starting line off the Vallejo Yacht
Club float, went to her mornings in
Richardson's Bay.
The schooner Aggie and the sloop
Ariel were under way yesterday. In
the race the sloop Challenger and the
schooner Chispa started from scratch;
the schooner Martha received IS min
utes; the sloop Thetis so minutes, and
the SlOOn Curlpw / hOur 20 minutes
Assuming IL o'clock noon as the start
ing time of all the yachts, the elapsed
time of Curlew was 6:31, of Challenger

time allowance, Martha beat Chispa
81 minutes.
