JULY,1933 NO. 2 Is Moc!el Yachting an American Sport? By C. 0. BRooK With the rapidly growing interest in model yacht sailing as a sport rather than as the earlier pul.pose of amusing a child in some city park, it seems that the time is appropriate for a great deal of National publicity. I do not offer a suggestion, nor outline a plan for such publicity, but I would like to plant the germ of a seed in the minds of the various readers of this magazine in the hope that a plan in.ight materalize during this season when those who are already model yacht enthusiasts are warmed to the sport. Whether or not the publishers of magazines that enjoy a large and paying circulation could be prevailed upon to pl.int a series of stories that were donated by some interesting writer who was familiar with the sailing of model yachts, and who would feel repaid by the knowledge that he was doing a real service to the sport as a whole, I do not know, but the thought has been in my mind for a long time, tho just how this might he accomplished, I haven’t the remotest idea. It may be that some subscriber of this paper who chances lo read it, may be a personal friend of such a publisher, or perhaps an advertiser who is also a friend to the model yachtsman may intercede for the sport. It is possible that if the attention of the general public were awakened to the undeniable fact that model yachting is a sport that may be indulged in without regard to age, and that it is a sport in which skill, healthful outdoor exercise, scientific study, and no end ,of entertainment are possible, lasting the entire year, many people thruout the country who now build ornamental models because of an i%h:::tkanotu)t°Voer;:£)Pzfepds’cWE:dtE:tfmh%e¥:8 may share in the pleasure now enjoyed by those of us who have had such an opportunity. If we stop to look back over the past several years, we will find that there is just a small group of men who are carrying model yachting along the path of popularity it now enjoys. These men are UNPAID ; they give and give, continually, with no thought of remuneration, with no idea of personal gain; merely seeking to scatter the sunshine that they themselves enjoy. I have no hesitancy in saying that any one of these men, or the collective group, would be happy to find that someone else was giving them a friendly lift in their effol`ts. We read in every paper that deals with model yachting of men giving, giving, giving. There are models that have cost them quite a sum in cash and hours of labor, sold for a small fraction of .their actual cost, or given free that someone else may join their fun. Others spend weeke at a time studying and designing a model that will he just a little superior to those that have been designed before, and they GIVE the design away, and even go to the trouble of carrying the design to a blue-print shop, going after the blue-print, and then mailing it to someone they never heard of and probably will never see, without charging one cent more than they actually paid to have the blueprint made. They spend money for postage, they take time to write letters and answer questions from people of whom they know nothing. I have often wondered if model yachtsmen who have as yet done little for the sport, have ever stopped to visualize what sort of man it is who does all this giving to him. Perhaps, aye, very likely not. We are to apt to take these things for 2 MODEL YACHTING Eastern Eliminations were begun. Mr. granted unless they are called to our attention t,hru a friend.

I have found that they become interested at once and usually wonder if I can ride in them. This is my opportunity to go into details as to what model yachting is. I have not accomplished any wondel.s as yet, nor have I any such hopes, but I do feel that I am slowly but surely stimulating an interest that may be the cause of bringing out those who have the desire but lack the courage to bring a model yacht to our sailing waters and join us in a sp.out that is clean, fascinating and healthful, for MODEL YACHTING IS AN AMERICAN SPORT. Eastern Trial Races By JOS. PERRONI On the mol.ming of June 29th, three members of the Executive Committee of the M. Y. R. A. of A. gathered with the officers and committee of the Mill Pond M. Y. C., at Port Washington, L. I., New York to start the Eastern Elimination Series. The Executive Committee present consisted of S. H. Cox, F. L. Pigeon and E. A. Bull. Starters were Messrs.

The summary of the first round follows :Yankee Doodle Ill, 35..

On t,he morning of June 30th weather conditions continued to be good. The wind came from the same direction and was a t.I.ifle stronger. The second round boards were I)egun al)out 9.30 and ran along smoothly until noon recess. It was about 2 o’clock when racing was resumed due to the inability to get t,he men assembled on time. However, the heats and re-sails completing the second round ended about 6 o’clock and the Officer of the Day ended the racing for the day. The standing for the first two rounds follows:- Paleay Ill, 70., Yankee Doodle 11_I, 68_., Westward Ill, 65.. Kaly, 65., Southward, 54..

It seemed to the officials and skippers before the series was started that it would be possible to sail three or four rounds during June 29 and 30, but the two days had proved that another round woul’d require the whole of Saturday, July lst. Inasmuch as the Western boats had arrived the Executive Committee ruled MODEL YACHTING that in order to end the Eastern Eliminations by Saturday noon so that the Western boats might tune up their boats on Saturday afternoon, only the “six leading boats were to sail in the third round during saturday morning. I During Friday evening the skippers that were eliminated held an informal meeting and decided to protest against the Executive Committee ruling on the grounds that they had been led to understand that they would be allowed to participate in three rounds of eliminations and also that they had no notice of the fact that such action would be taken. Also, a feeling of discrimination prevailed. When the grieved ones notified Vice President Cox of the fact that they would i:o#osntvLh&nteh¥mm:i:;tn:he¥r.acctfoxntrjea€ 3 having to rule on a matter in which they were participants, but inasmuch as no other members of the Executive Committee had arrived, they perforce had to handle the meeting. After hearing several of the skippers, Mr. Cox showed where the official notification of the series alloted only two days to the Eastern Eliminations. He also explained the fact that it was entirely within the authority of the Executive Committee to tcke the action. The point was raised that due to it having been officially scheduled to allow two days for the Eastern Eliminations and that the two days had been realized the three leading boats would be called the winners of the Eastern Eliminations. Then, to the satisfaction of nearly all present, the Vice President announced that the Executive Committee had decided to start the series East vs West Eliminations at I p.in. of that day. The three high scoring boats in the Eastern Eliminations to meet the three Western Boats. Time after the meeting was utilized by allowing the Western boats for more tuning up. similar to the procedure in England. However, Mr. Cox and Mr. Pigeon decided to allow a meeting the following moming so all skippers could be heard on the matter. The meeting was scheduled for 9.30 a.in., Sat,urday and got underway at about 9.45 when Mr. Cox called the meeting to order. The Vice President expressed National Championship, Class A t,he fact that the Executive Committee The first round of the Final Elimiwere in the embarrassing posit,ion of nations were started in a freshening southwester of about fifteen miles velocity and most of the Eastern boats had to try many trims before getting into a winning stride. Pa!sey JJJ, of the Eastern teaLm had been consist,ently wilming her heats and then was protested by an Eastern skipper for carrying movable baLllast inside her hull. The matter was taken up immediately by the Officer of the Day and when Mr. Reynolds admitted the charge, Pdrsey was disqualified from the series.

That evening the thought arose as to whether or not the Ka!y, which was fourth in the Eastern Eliminations should be allowed’to enter the series in place of the disqualified boat. Mr. Bull put the question up to the five remaining skippers for their consent on the basis that Kafy should start the third round with 24 )REREfflllllBREREi.¥g€RE=a= MODEL points. All the skippers agreed to allow Ko!y to enter and the Executive Committee approved. On Sunday the breeze was stronger, from the north east. Many fouls marked the anxiety of the shippers to keep their models close together to lessen the chances of lucky wins. Much time was lost in waiting to get models that had gone afoul and as a result only two rounds were held. Standing after fourth round. YACHTING points behind the leaders and with only two more rounds to sail, decided to concede their chances as hopeless and allow only M].men;a! and Vor}/.a to sail it off in six heats. The Executive Committee approved and announced that as soon as the rain ceased the two boats final would be held.

MARBLEHEAD 50-800 TRIALS On Tuesday, Julyi 4th, the day of the 50-800 Class National Championship Races, the wind was light and sometimes vanished completely.

Then a change`in weather became evident. The wind began to fail completely and at about 5.30 p.in. it was decided to call a halt until an expected breeze materialized. Opportunity was thereby had for refreshments and in some cases a bit of food. At about 6.30 the breeze began to make itself evident as coming agofn, from the northeast. All hands were sent off on the fifth lieat and soon after starting came a rain squall. The races continued through the rain and as soon as it stopped the wind almost died with it. Despite the very light breeze it was decided to finish the I.ound and declare a winner. The scores were hurriedly tallied and it was found {L,hat Millward and Anderson of Staten Island were almost t.ied. The fact that the re-sail of a leeward board between Torpedo and Mdscot would put Maccol up two points was very important regarding the high scorers, the re-salt was held. Moscof won it by a narrow margin. Inasmuch as all the windward boards had been completed and although it was deemed unnecessary to send all boats on the last leeward board, A4dscol and A41oor} was the only pair to run down for the place of honor. By this time it was nearly 9 p.in. and due to another little shower many of the skippers had gone away. However, A4dscof and Moor. were sent away in the dying northeaster.

Racing was stopped at 5.30 p.in. at which time Stqten Island and Marblehead were tie for first place, with the other three boats in a triple tie for second place. At 6.30 a steak pie supper was enjoyed in Odd Fellows Hall followed by an entertainment and dancing. Sunday morning the frst pair were started in a brisk shower and an even Lighter air than on the previous day. The 6 MODEL I.ace had developed into a duel between Staten Island and Marblehead, as it did last year, the other boats were simply in there trying, with no chance to catch the leaders. Randall, with the Broom, sailed a fine series, sailing for position at all t,imes, and making no mistakes, he dropped only one race in the two days. The last race in which Marblehead was pail.ed with Staten Island was a classic, and clinched the cup for Marblehead. Anderson had big lead on the run, allowing him to away fil.st on the return windward with what looked like enongh water tween the two boats for a sure wifl j`4dsco!, but Randall had only begun sail. By superb handling of his boat placed her in just the right spot for best lay on each tack and fine judgment, on the adjustment of the “gilhooley” on the last tack put him over the line a few seconds ahead of ” Andy. ” Anderson sailed his usual clever series. The ot.her three challengers would probably have been more troublesome with a little stronger breeze. A goodly crew of rooters came over with the Staten Island boat and a gallery of several hundred spectators watched the racing. Arthur Millward brought over his National Champion, A4con, C. 0. Brook and H. GI.affunder had Pi.nfa IV{.gh!y from the Deeper Hudson Club. Before the cup races started, and after they were finished, these models, with others enjoyed several hours of scrub racing. The cup racing was much closer than the scores would indicate, there I]eing several races taken by seconds. The races were run off smoothly, the regatta being impartially handled by the committee. The burgees of each club were strung over the starting line and at the close of the series the owner of the challenging boat was presented with this pennant, a fine souvenir of a nice series. YACHTING, All Model Yacht Club members and others who may be interested are cordially invited to attend. Saturday, August 5th, a mixed race will be held for all models with hulls between 29 and 49 inches overall length, regardless of rig or rating. Models for this race need not be registered with the M.

Owing to the extreme heat and lack of wind other I.aces are in the doldrums but will be resumed the first Sunday after Labor Day. George Baron, before leaving for England informed the writer that upon his return he is prepared to furnish any interested reader with designs of V¢njo. The Broom only lost one race out of twelve in the Marblehead Challenge Cup series. That Randall bc)y can sure sail ‘epr. By a very clever exhibition of hand- ling he overcame a big lead to win his last race with Staten Island, the runner-up. Hubert Grayson recent,ly mailed us a copy of an interesting fifty page souvenir program issued in connection with the AucHand Anniversary regatta. Wallace Eaton, Springfield, who wins plenty of races with his twelve foot racing dinghy is having plenty of woe with his Class A model. C. 0. Brook and H. Graffunder drove over from Rensselaer for the Marblehead races. C. 0. brought his Pi.nfa IV!.ghdy, enjoying some scrub racing with the fleet at Reds Pond. A. J. Fisher has issued a very attractive new price list, No. 10. Many items have W. G. Hubbard, Sam Francisco, when re- been reduced in price. The Fisher line is newing the club subscription sent some most complete, the goods are all high 1.0 MODEL grade, last, this is a most satisfactory firm to do business with. Geo. I`Tyman, Marlboro, says that we mentioned big boats in a recent issue, but we “haven’t seen nothin’ yet,” he has one 46.75 w. I., 17.87 w. I. b. and 59 lbs. dis- placement. Corl.ect Gectrge, we haven’t. R. L. Noonan, St. Louis, writes; “Datt)n was certainly a beauty and a very find performer. Did everything but say `Yes, papa.’ It is a great boost for the sport and a source of new enthrisiasm for all who met the skipper and observed the beauty of his boat.” Several orders have been delayed while the skipper has been hopping around to various places. We t`hank our readers for their patience over these delays. The Staten Island boys have been experimenting with vane steering gears but from my conversation with several members of that club at Marblehead they are far from ” sold ” on them. The North Shrewsbury Club have changed their name to Red Bank and joined the M. Y. R. A. The editor had a chat with the four Andersons, three boys and “the old man” who won the “Outing” Cup %dara}.a8ih¥dA£Sdejr*nsaspiEeneEoadsok±tphpe€: stuff at Hamton Manor, and may add the Heisler Cup to their collection. The Staten Islanders plan to invade Hamton Manor with their fleet in battle formation. Arthur Millward win be there with the National Champion j`4oon. “Andy” with Mascol, and some other hot ones from that, club. Marblehead will take over some of their tubs, so it looks like some real racing for Mr. Heisler’s mug. The Warinanco spring series resulted in a tie between Wi.!d Goose, Noel Cram and /141ar..ori, R. P. Smith, each with 23 points. John Black brought out a big parachute spinaker at Port Washington and did that pull Bas!om.a V along. Anderson, Staten Island, was smart enough to fit, his model with a Marblehead gear for the Challenge Cup races. This gear has it all over the Braine gear for the usual conditions found at Reds Pond. The Saugatuck Gold Bowl Races are to be held Sunday, August 20th. At the Eastern Trial Races, Mrs. W. C. Schlaefer acted as mate for Kcily and Mrs. Lanzer was mate for the Eag!e. Both these LL– YACHTING ladies did a fine job and seemed to enjoy the experience immensely. E. A. Duncan, Schenectady, is finishing up his new Class A model which will soon be really to race. Sandpiper is 66 o. E\., 481. w.I., 13 beam and 43.5 disp. His son George is working over his second design for the 50-800 class and plans to start construction soon. Our good friend C. 0. Brook, who is one of oul` most faithful correspondents, embellishes some of his letters with very nifty model yachting sketches. C. 0. is an artist of ability and these sketches are most interesting and amusing. Joe Perroni has just mailed us a check fol` a copy of “Build a Winning Model Yacht,” which will be offered as second prize in the Mill Pond races which he and Mr. Cox are sponsoring. Lloyd Ranlett, Malden, has started a plank I.ob of the Potter design WampLiJ72 which is proving to be a fine all round racing boat. On the Mill Pond Pool, one end of which is swampy, a cat-walk wds built across the pond, to give the finishing boats a clear line, the models finishing ahead were lifted over to the dead lagoon. In lifting the JJo£-Cha back for a start the handle let go and your editor took a nice back dive into the pool. As my friend Millward from Staten Island doesn’t like to have me beat him at anything he duplicated the performance in the 50-800 racing. Now I just must trim him at Hamton Manor so as to make things more interesting at the Staten Island races later in the season. In the twelve races for the Marblehead Challenge Cup, Marblehead won eleven. losing one to Staten Island. Staten Island won nine, losing two to Marblehead and one to Wakefield. Boston won four, Wakefield four and Chicago two. It is a t,actless visiting skipper who knocks the home club, it’s boats and sailing water where he may be overheard by local spectatol.s. The Heisler Cup promises to attract the largest entry of visiting models ever to compete in olie class. From present indications there will be from twenty-five to thirty, or more, foreign entries. The judges will have a strenuous day. Don’t for.get your registrat,ion card. -I-JJt-,’J=- ,_ MODEL YACHTING Western Trial Races As none of our Mid-Western readers sent us any material covering this regatta or the Century of Progress, our report is rather meager, so all we call give you is a sketchy account of the results. 11 solid silver bowl believed to be more than 200 years old, and a small silver cup 10″ in height.

There is not much enthusiasm here now due to the hot weather. But the boys will be at, it agaln in the fall. We are thinking of having someone tryt. get the 16th St. Reservoir fixed up for sailing. It is thought President Roosevelt might be able to do somet,hing. This would make an ideal place due to the high locatictn where ‘the wind blows all the time. I hope to get up to Boston and Port Washington this fall, and enter my boat in any races that are scheduled. I liked the Port Washington pool except for the gravel bank.

The Detroit Regatta annouced in the opposite column provides model yachts- men with their frst opportunity for world wide publicity. The Gold Cup was won last August by Horace E. Dodge’s DeJpb!.r}e JV, at Mon- tauk Lalre and taken to Detroit. These races attract thousands of spectators and the Race Committee in adding model races to their program give us a chance to introduce our sport to thousands. This aquatic program, too is given world wide publicity through the news reel and press. Among the members of the Gold Cup Committee are some of the leading manufacturers of the country, including Henry Ford and some sixty seven others. The combined group spend hundreds of thousands of dollars for advertising space, this is our fil.st chance to hook up with a group who command publicity and get it. I hope every reader who can get to Detroit with an International Class A model will be on the line for those races. I particularly appeal to the Chicago, Cleveland St. Louis and Michigan skippers to put this regatta over in a big way.

The provisions of this clause over ride those of the second clause (above) part b., the third clause (ab.ve) and the fifth clause (above). R IGHTS ON NEW COURSE. A yacht shall be entitled to her rights on a new course: (a) When she has filled away, but she shall not have the right to alter her course so as to involve the risk of fouling another yacht which (owing to her position) cannot keep clear. PASSING AND ROUNDING MARKS. If an overlap exists wheh yachts, without tacking, are about to pass a mark on the required side, then the outside yacht must. give the other room enough to pass clear t)f the mark. A yacht shall not, however, be justified in attempting to estal]lish an overlap and thus force a passage after another yacht has altered her course for the purpose of rounding. OBSTRUCTION TO SEA ROOM. When a yacht is approaching a shore, shoal, dock, rock, boat, or other dangerous obstruction and cannot go clear by altering her course without fouling another yacht, then the latter shall, upon being hailed by the former, immediately give room; and in case one is forced to tack or to bear away in order to give room then the other (hailing yacht) shall also tack or bear away as the case may be at or as near the same time and place as is possible without danger of fouling. But should the obstruction be a desigmted mark of the course, a yacht thus forcing another to tack under the provision of this rule shall YACHTIN(; Launch Out Into the Deep ::;F#;;ffd::s§nh;;e§#::se::p:,ckersLeap Let out the idle sail!
