This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ...two headings--cutters and schooners. The cutters were divided into four classes: the first of 30 tons and under 50; the second of 50 and under 75; the third of 75 and under 105; the fourth of 105 and upwards. Schooners were placed in two classes: the first of those under 140 tons, the second of those of 140 and over. With the reclassification the Committee adopted a new system of time allowance calculated on tonnage and the distance of the course, devised by Mr. G. H.

This event brought a great muster of vessels into the Solent in 1843, chiefly from the Thames. The entries were limited to yachts under 35 tons, and eleven small cutters started over a course twice round the West Buoy, Brambles, the Lepe, and the starting-boat off the Castle. There followed a very good race, marked by much clever manoeuvring, which was won by the Champion of Mr. H. Gunston, a name very famous in the early records of Thames racing. The same event in the following year (1844) produced one of the finest races ever witnessed at Cowes. Here the vessels were limited to 25 tons, fourteen of which--all belonging to the R.T.Y.C.--appeared at...
