RACING FLEET
OPENING CRUISES
[By "Chau Kung"] With, the wind fairly establish- ed in the east, great preparations afoot amongst the racing fleet of the Yacht Club.
are
There have been several changes in ownership among the Club Fleat and in other casos deputies are sailing the craft for members on leave.
It will be to the benefit of the new owners if they participate in the preliminary race on Saturday and join in the Club Cruise which I hear is being arranged for the week-end.
.
The rendezvous is to be st Hang Hau, a start being made
from the Club House on Saturday morning at 10.30 am.
The usual series of races, will take place between the boats which turn out and should afford members an opportunity for turn-! ing up their boats preparatory to the first Championship race which is fixed for the last Saturday of the month, I believe..
Land Jargon
Some amusing inaccuracies are perpetrated by reporters who are not versed in the language or jargon of sailing and who for their sins, doubtless-are cast for writing up yachting events.
We recently had it broadcasted to the world that "Germany had beaten the United States in the big 30 mètre yacht race,"
The reporter unfortunately did not appreciate the significance of the "square" before the "metre." The race actually was between a team of yachts which were con- structed to a limit
of displace- ment and sail area, the latter not to exceed 30 square metres or about 330 square feet, that is, ap- proximately a little less than the canvas which is carried by the "Y" class sailing in these waters.
The mistake, unless recognised as auch, might have led people to believe that the competing ves- sols were bigger even than the "Vanity," the last "defender" of the
"Americas" Cup or His the late
Majesty's "Britannia," Mortimer Singer's "Astra," the "Lulworth," "Cambria," "White Heather" and last but not least Sir Thomas Lipton's "Shamrock" all of which are about 23 metres measurement.
New Challenger
Sir Thomas's new challenger which will compete, in September next, in his fifth attempt to lift metres in measurement and prob the Cup will also be about 23 ably about 75 feet on the water line, with a displacement of about 180 or 200 tons and carrying 8 to 9,000 square feet, or one fifth of an acre of canvas, whilst a vessel of 80 metres would prob
