BY CAPTAIN JAMES c. SUMMERS.
Diving into a head sea over a good
part Of their hfty-mile course, ten
motor boats OF the cruiser type raced
of shore yesterday for the prizes
offered by members OF the Tamaqua
Yacht Club Of Sheepshead Bay. The
start was made Off Manhattan Beach

around the Scotland Lightship, thence
20 the Ambrose Lightship; from there
70 Buoy No. ,, of Joues's Inlet. thence
70 the finish on Manhattan Beach.
IL Was good test of the seagoing
qualities Of the boats and Of the reli-
ability Of the engines. Only one boat
had engine trouble-that was the
Caehalot, owned by II. Heymsn. She
was disabled of Long Beach on the last
leg OF the course, but she finished later
under her own power.
The Kokomo, owned by r. Rose. took
the lead soon after the start and held
IL 20 the finish, but she was the scratch
boat and was unable 90 save her time
on S. D. Siebert's Dana s, which proved
The winner Of the first prize-the Mid
dleton cup. She covered the course in
hours so minutes and - seconds.
The winner of the second prize, $40 in
gold, was A. W. Midtleton's Grace
Irene.
The third prize went 70 ". Twins

The Kokomo mads the fastest time
