SPECULATION ON
THE OCEAN RACE

June 13, 1906.
Editor Advertiser: I was pleased to
read the views in the evening papers
of the two sea captains on the outcome
of the Pacific yacht race, for it is from
their experience that an amateur draws
his conclusions / am a member of the
Hawaii Yacht Club and an amateur.
but would like to say a few words in
regard to the race. Since La Paloma
arrived in San Francisco and sent US
trip up showed a very funny course. 1t
may be. or it may not have been, 1 am
not experienced enough to know; all L
know is she got there and little in
the lead of a vessel which could call
either Honolulu or San Francisco her
rome. and both started the same day.
Now, we will suppose La Paloma did
take funny or an unusual course:
WY did she do so? Because she is
small boat. big ship leaves Honolulu
bound to San FranciSco-a boat con-
stantly on that run. The captain
could set his course at the start and
know exactly what he is going to do,
and the log which spoke for last time
would also answer for this. Not the
same with Paloma. All the room she
has for six men above deck is the
cockpit, which is not SO large. No
doubt Captain Mosher started on
tack with the intention of keeping it
for a day or so. but the crew. not men
who get their living by following the
sea- begin to get uneasy in their
cramped quarters, being tired, with
nothing to do. Finally the captain
gave orders to put her on the other
tack, not because he was right by so
doing. but 10 satisfy the uneasiness of
his men. Now the question is, VIII he
do so coming down?
| have sailed in La PalOma around
tits island twice and also on other
cruises. anG by her behavior I consider,
if we get the weather which Captains
Drew and Kelly believe we viii get, our
local boat stands a good show. but.
however this race turns out. l firmly
believe that the Hawaii Yacht Club
has laid the foundation for future Pa
cific yachting and that next year viii
see much bigger struggle for SUI
premacy between here and San Fran
cisco GEO. TURNER.

and he came around with an applica-

least George Ellis decided that his bust

who is also our yachting correspond
ent, is stirred to grievous jealousy be-
cause he cannot get away to join the
party on board the Lurline. He has
turned in what he states is his dream
of what will happen when the Lurline
gets to sea. Doubtless if the prospec
tive supercargoes of the good yacht
Lurline ever get hold of him he will
be properly keel-hauled.
Farewell farewell, the anchors up
The yachts are under way,
They're off to Honolulu lads,
Two thousand miles away.
Before they go let's give one cheer,
For crews and captains bold,
The Lurline has a stock of beer
Secreted in her hold.
Observe her captain taut and trim,
He bravely walks the poop,
He cons his ship with Jealous vim
To work he would not stoop.
So he has shanghaied all his friends,
That is, the ones he thinks
He can make work with halyard ends.
And do not ask for drinks.
Poor Louie Vetter, see him there
So innocent is he
He does not know that Sinclair is
A buckle man at sea.
For when they get outside the heads
He'll hear the skipper shout
"Oh, bo'sun, pipe the call All hands
And turn those iubbers out
Then. when they reach the after deck.
The commodore will say
I'm captain of this blessed ship
My word you must obey;
You thought you'd come along o me
To have a pleasant trip,
I'll make a pleasant trip for you
You've got to man the ship.
Now douse those dudish buds. you
swabs,
Put on some dungaree,
And anyone who has complaints
Has got to deal with me.
Fritz Overton, you're cabin boy,
And Louie cook will be-.
The crew can live on junk and tack,
The very best for me.
Now Charlie Clark, get up aloft,
And hide that homely face,
Splice all the rigging you can find
Except the big main brace.
III make you work. you lively dudes,
I'll make You earn your pay
That's all l have to say"
But, when at length they win the race
And get to Hawaii first
Just think what joyous times they'll
have
'quenching of their thirst.

GENERAL TURNOUT.

Practically the whole of the yacht
ing community will be present in the
outer harbor of San Pedro when the
racers are sent off at IL o'clock Mon
day, June IL. The Hawaii Yacht Club
of Honolulu, Hawaii, gives a sterling
silver trophy costing $500 for this race,
and if three or more yachts enter, a
second prize viii be offered. All yachts
participating will receive a silver SOU
venir irrespective of their position at
the finish.
That there will be more than three
participants in the contest seems now
assured by the orders given by Charles
L. Tut of Pasadena to put the Anem-
one into racing shape. She is now at
San Diego being placed in dry dock
while refitting for her further voy-
aging. and the bulwarks that were
smashed by the fall of her broken top
mast in her recent passage from New
York have been repaired. The Anem-
one has just finished a voyage of $4,000
miles from Sandy Hook to Southern
California, and as she is enrolled in the
lists of the South Coast Yacht Club
and the New York Yacht Club she will
represent both organizations.
USUAL RULES OF THE ROAD.
Usual rules of the road at sea will
govern, and the finish will be off Dia-
to the finish. the committees official
rules should be carefully studied by
participants as follows:
The light must be abeam and within
a distance of two miles. The yacht
must display private signal in daytime,
but in case of arrival at night must
burn Coston signal when about five
miles from the light and another when
the light is abeam and must receive
in each case reply from the station.
Watchmen will be on hand day and
night to time the finish. Yachts may
then proceed to harbor. observing the
usual u. S. quarantine regulations. All
expense of pilotage, towing, harbor
dues and fresh water will be borne by
the Hawaii Yacht Club.
AS to the time allowance to be given,
there has been some correspondence, as
the first proposal was to allow one
hour a foot of length for the entire dis
lance, and the calculation of length
will be the load-waterline, plus one half
of the overhangs; the measurements
to be made when all provisions are on
board and the yachts are ready for
sea.
The following table will show the
necessary for Lurline to give
the various yachts so far named as
probable entries:
Allowance
Name LO.A. WI. RI. H. NJ
Lurline -. SIS y 7S1s
La Paloma 81
Deduction as above made by Com
Sinclair of Los Angeles in re-
gard to the 5000 mile contest on the
Atlantic ocean apply without doubt to
the 225O-miles contest now to be sailed
on the Pacific. and it is now under
stood that the allowance between the
yachts viii be one half hour for every
foot of length"
In order that the competing yachts
may have an extra interest in their
return trip to the coast of America,
further cup valued at $500 has been /
offered for the home run.
Much entertainment has been pre-
pared for the visiting yachtsmen at
Honolulu. The above rule that ''all ex- |
pense of fresh water will be borne by |

posed to refer exclusively to the liquid |!
