this summer and add to the event.
Mr. Callahan will not make any
statement in regard to the dimensions
of the new boat, except that she will
be built to the limit of the universal
rule of measurement now in force on
this coast and that she will be designed
for class @. Nothing will be spared in
her design and construction that will
make speed, and the very best Wilson
& Sisby sails and Fraser hollow spars
will be used. Special blocks and rig
ging will be provided, and as she will
be the only strictly up-to-date racing
boat of her type on the Pacific coast,
she should create considerable interest.
