FINE DAY FOR SAILING
Strong Breeze Drives Yachts
Over GraveSend Bay.
SURPRISE FOR SHIPPERS
Contestants Not Formally En-
tered Go Unrecognized by
Committee.

There were several very surprised Cor
inthians at the National Yacht Club yes
terday afternoon. The organization man
aged the fourth race to count on the yacht
racing championship of Gravesend Bay.
An excellent fleet OF craft reported off the
starting line and set sail in the contest. To
the surprise of many the regatta commit
tee. made up Of Peter Bentley. chairman.
and Harvey 3. Griffin, refused 10 recognize
many Of the yachts. The boats that were
ignored failed TO make formal entry in
the contest
The Clare was the only craft not timed
that had any chance Of winning prize.
She finished first IN the handicap division
When the boat was not greeted by gun
there was decided surprise on board, and
her skipper asked for an explanation. He
was told the stand that the committee had
taken. and sailed away very disguised
man However. II is doubtful If the Clare
would have won the division on corrected
time The Careless easily took first place
from the Mana after the handicaps had
been deducted
Without doubt. the yachtsmen had one or
the best sailing breeZes of the year. The
wind was from the southeast and OF
good. wholesome quality. The course
chosen by the regatta committee gave the
larger craft a reach to Bensonhurst, where
spinnakers were set for a run across the
channel to Craven Shoals. Here the yachts
went on the wind for a stiff beat down
the channel TO Ambrose Channel Buoy NO.
A. A spinnaker run followed 10 Sea CATE
and then there was a reach home. The
Soya had no difficulty in winning the d.
vision.
The Wink made a runaway contest
among the ) boats winning by almost five
minutes from the NJ. & F. The Suffragette
led home the knockabouts of GraVesend
Bay and the Aries had practically sail
over I'm the dingy class. In addiuon 10
the championship race for saiboats, there
was a closed motor boat class. The yachts
covered a seventeen-mile course. and on
both corrected and actual time the win
ner was the Sim Too the property OF
