Big Schooner Sailed Home By Owner's Daughter
(Special Air-mail Service)
Cowes, Aug. 9. The Royal Yacht Squadron regatta began to-dar, the prin- cipal races being the King's Cup and Queen Mary's Cup
His Majesty's cup, formerly confined to yachts belonging only to the R.Y.S., has for the last thre years been open to members of all rècognised British yacht clubs. The prize la offered for yachts of any rig or rating exceeding 60-ft. loud water-line length, upon the time allowance scale of the Yacht Racing Association. It has thus become the "Derby" of yacht- ing.
"
Mr. T. B. F. Davis won the King's Cup with his splendid schooner Westward, defeating the whole class of cutters. It' proved to be an ideal day for a schooner yacht to show her speed, because the northerly wind was strong and, except to round the marks," the yachts did not make a tack from start to finish.
