and the Joyetta Of the Indian Harbor
Yacht Club was far astern and towed In.
The race was started from Off the
Atlantic dock at Sea Gate and went to
Old orchard. Buoy No. 10 an home.
The wind was east by north. light. and
this gave the yachts a run to Old
Orchard, a beat to Buoy 10 and a reach
home.
The Alice was first away. She had
w. A. Barstow on board to assist Mr..
Davis. The run was tedious and the
yachts gybed several times. At Old
Orchard the Alice led Joyetta by five
minute and Virginia by eight minutes.
Then the wind was very fiuky and
seemed to head the yachts on every
tack. Alice gained steadily and Fir-
glnia passed the Joyetta. At Buoy 10
Alice led by twenty-seven minutes.
Dick Moore sailed Joyetta and tried
to work the tides, but got left badly.
