famous in yachting history.
The yachts Of the big feet will be over
hauled before the time Of the cruise and
put in the best OF condition. The steamers
will glisten with new coats Of varnish and
white paint, and the sailing craft will have
new suits Of sails Of spotless white.
One after another the yachts will drop
anchor of the club station and salute the
flag with one gun. Then the senior officer
or captain present will acknowledge the
salute with a gun. Then a regatta will
be sailed for prizes called the rendezvous
cups. This regatta is arranged by way
Of entertainment, and while the boats are
racing the feet in the harbor will be grow
ing larger and larger.
Some time in the afternoon Commodore
Frederick G. Bourne will enter the harbor
on his flagship Colonia, and as the Colonia
drops anchor every yacht in the harbor
will salute. These sa,utes will be an
swered by two guns from the flagship,
and then the squadron will have been or
gained. After that, as each yacht joins
the fleet gun will bark from the new
arrival and the flagship will acknowledge
the courtesy by another gun.
Then string Of code flags will fiutter
from the mainmast Of the Colonia telling
the captains-for every owner of yacht
is captain, that they are to meet on the
flagship at o'clock.
At that hour gigs, cutters and launches
will be lowered from the different vessels in
the feet, and the captain will take his place
and promptly be taken over to the flagship,
where he will be welcomed by the Commo-
dore or his aids. Then the meeting will be |
