that could give the Luriine a chase.
Many notable and long cruises were
taken, the most important being to
the South Sea and Hawaiian Islands.
Drawing storm and calm the Lurline
carried owner and guests to many
strange lands and wonderful sights,
Sinclair Buys LurIine.
About 1900 Commodore III. II. Sin
clare purchased the yacht, and she
became the flagship of the South Coast
Yacht Club of San Pedro.
She was heightened out five feet In
the stern, making her 81 feet 6 inches
long. Then followed another South Sea
island cruise, and fresh laureis to her
name, In 1906 the first biennial
trans-Pacifie race from San Pedro to
Honolulu was held This is the long
est yacht race in the world, the dis
lance being many leagues further
than the transatlantic course from
New York to the English channel.
Under the command of Commodore
Sinclaire, Lurline raced as scratch
boat against the Anemone, big ketch
imported from England and owned by
Charles Tut, and the La Paloma, un-
der the colors of the Hawaiian Yacht
club. The last was conceded to have
no chance to win, and was only enter
| ed to make third yacht. Anemone,
however, looked pretty. good as a run.

Quick time was made, and Eufline
was snugly berthed at the wharf in

others that it is a shame to give the

Two years later, in 1908, came the
second race over the same course.
Again Lurline was scratch boat, but
this time there was brand new

ular subscription on purpose te beat

winner to a lot of the fans. There was

with,a green crew of volunteers from
San Diego. There was also a plueky
little yawl from Seattle, the Gwendo-

the fayorite in the betting, but Lur
line and her crew were again in Ho-
noluiu to greet the rest OF the fleet
at the end CT the grind. Poor Ha-
wall came IN poor last, which was
principally, due, it is said to the COM

astonished, and much money changed

GRAND OLD YACHT IS LURLINE

=
Every yachtsman in Hawaii, and a
good many who are not amateur tars,
are familiar with the graceful lines OF
the schooner yacht Lurline, thrice
winner Of the trans Pacific race.
There are few, however, who realize
that the yacht is now 81 years old, a
veteran among veterans when ii
comes to ocean racing. 1t is unusual
for vessel of this class to keep up
all her sailing qualities, and the fol.
lowing history of the Lurline,s from
the time her keel was laid until the
present day, printed in the San Diego
Union, will be of interest to the local
fraternity:
Clean limbed, and thoroughbred
from the tip OF her bowsprit to the
end of her boom and from keel to the
trucks on her topmasts, Lurline is
the pride of western waters-a
schooner yacht with a capital S and
the peer OF them all.
Is San Diego Pet.
Lurline is an especial pet of San
Diego and well she may be. For Lur-
line in her old age-she is now 81 and
that is old for vesseEcarried the
colors of the San Diego Yacht Club
and the banner Of the Panama-Cali
fornia Exposition across the foaming
waters of the Pacific last summer and
beat a feet of new, fast yachts, the
pick of the Pacific coast.
The Honolulu race is. the classic of
the 4cific and our Lurline won
hands down, with bunch OF young
sters from the local clubs as crew,
Greenhorns they were, IL you like,
but with the spirit of San Diego in
their veins. All the honers of the big
event came to San Diego, which be
came the talk of the yachting world,
and the banner, 1915. made the for.
eigners sit up and take notice as they
never had before. And the Lurline
was the cause of it all.
Gallant Old Schooner.
LurIlne still has the heels and the
speed of her youth-more, in fact, il
seems-for as with each race some
brand new, spick and span creation
from the best designers in the land
comes TO the line, all anxious to lower
the colors of the grand old yacht. And
then in some way or other each time
the Lurline manages to get lead
and the new saucy rivals are lucky
il they get close enough to admire the
graceful lines of her contour. "a
wonderful vessel, a yacht ahead oil
her time" and champion of the Pa
cific" are some of the titles bestowed
on her by the yachting experts. Ar
old-timer that refuses to be bach
number" is another "apt" expression
, which seems to fit the case.
Built by Mathew Turner.
Most of the yachts of her age are
| in the scrap heap or sold into some
! line of trade and have long since beer
cut of the yachting game. 1t was il
the early eighties that John d
ESpreckels commissioned Mathew Tur
ner to build him a yacht.
| Il want real yacht, not an apollo
gy, and the expense doesn't matter,
Spreckels is reported to have said.
Turner at that time had his ship
yard at the foot of Sixth street, Sal
! Francisco, and was considered one o
the best builders on the coast. H,

obeyed orders. The schooner was
modelled, sleek, pretty hull with
lines so graceful that the like had
never been seen around there.
The wise ones shook their heads
they had ideas of their own.
The schooner was built by day la
Dor, not contract. Her timbers were
Of the finest and most select. ALI OF
the materials were of the best. Her
dimensions were SO feet on the deck,
~ feet 6 inches waterline, with a
beam of 20 feet Her draught was
feet. 1t took twenty tons of lead
for her outside ballast, bolted to her
keel, and more than seventeen tons
inside. Her registered tonnage is
74.e3 tons.
The lofty spars had spread OF
5000 square feet in the working sails
and the racing light sails totaIed it
TO more than 1000 square feet Nate
Nicholas, now a San Diego resident
was at that time associated with Tur-
ner, and had much to do with the con
struction of the Lurline. He speaks
in glowing terms of the way she was
put together.
The accommodations are roony,
comfortable and elaborate. Expen-
siye hardwoods were used in the cab
in finish There was mahogany, rose
wood, teak, Kola and birdseye maple,
together with much hand carving and
fine fret work. The main cabin has
sleeping accommodations for six, be-
sides four double staterooms. A
roomy galley is forward and well
equipped In the forecastle, where
the crew sleeps, the accommodations
are finer and better than the cabins
of many modern yachts, Ten thous.
and dollars was the bill for her in.
terror finish alone
1t was August Is, 1882, that Lur.
| line took her baptismal plunge into
the brine and began the career that
was to make her famous and endeaI
her to the hearts of true sportsmen.
Radical Departure Noted.
About this time the prevailing type
of yacht was after the English cutter
A long, deep, narrow plank on edge
sort OF craft. They were mean brutes,
they sailed on their ear, and they

barrel. Lurline was a radical depar.
ture from this model, being intended
to sail on her keel, with plenty OF
stability as well as speed and wide
enough to be comfortable. The price
of the completed yacht was $4,000
The knockers club had a lot to
J say, of course, but the results have
more than justified Turner.
Three times running she has won
the Honolulu race from San Pedro to
Honolulu, a distance of 1858 miles
the way they sail to get there. The
steamer course is shorter, but it gees
through the calm belt, and is not
much used by sailing vessels.
These three events were only the
big things. There we're other vic
tories. Spreekels raced her and
cruised extensively and report has il
that as soon as Lurline became tuned
up and understood that she swept the
decks of all prizes in the yatchtine
game around San Francisco, and that
the schooner Aggie was the only craft
