Excerpt from On Yachts and Yacht Handling But this method of handling a subject is apt to breed dogmatism, especially as the reader is unable to question or deny the statements made until they have been chilled into ink. Sooyou will find in many of my chapters that Iam exceedingly dogmatic. It is unintentional, simply being a manifestation of the spirit peculiar to this style of addressing an audience - one that must hear but cannot answer. Therefore let me warn you to question all my statements, and to accept only those that harmonize with your own conclusions, after you have carefully thought them over. Those that you cannot reconcile to your own knowledge and experience, lay on one side to be tried out at a future day.

Excerpt from Canoeing, Sailing and Motor Boating: Practical Boat Building and Handling It is believed that the book will have wide ap peal, not only to the boy making his first ventures on blue water and to the youth learning to become an able yacht sman, but to the man who would still keep to his love for adventures afloat, yet whose pocketbook may prevent him from becoming a yachtowner in the accepted meaning of the term. To the Poor Man, therefore, let this volume be dedicated. May its perusal steer him clear of ex pensive pitfalls, show him the way to enjoy his days afloat, and keep alive in him that love of the sea which lies at the root of this nation's sea power.

Excerpt from Ready About, or Sailing the Boat As indicated in the sub-title, Sailing the Boat is one of the principal features of the book. This is an art that cannot be mastered by simply learning the theory. Nothing but abundant practice can make a competent boatman. Fifty years ago, the writer, how ever, would have deemed it very fortunate if he could have obtained from a book, even such instruction as he has endeavored to impart. He has by no means ex hansted the subject, though whatever more is to be learned will almost come of itself with experience; The author has learned in fifty years that there is always something more to learn; and the handling of a yacht has come to be almost high art in the amount of time, study, and enthusiasm bestowed upon the subject in recent years.

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Construction, Rigging Handling of Model Yachts, Ships Steamers: With Remarks on Cruising Racing Yachts, and the Management of Open Boats; Also Lines for Various Models and a Cutter Yacht This has been necessitated by the alteration in the Yacht Racing Association rule of measurement. The rule, as it now stands, reads thus - Length added to Breadth and multiplied by the same figures, then multiplied again by Breadth alone, and divided by 1730, the quotient is the tonnage. Although this rule does not very materially alter the tonnage of existing yachts, at the same time it gives a slightly fairer chance to the designer than the old mode of calculating the tonnage, inasmuch as length plays a more important part in increasing the nominal size than it did formerly. This being so, it becomes possible to build a vessel on less exaggerated dimensions for racing purposes, and which, while taking her part in sailing matches with fair success, will be found a handy and comfortable cruiser. The limited deck space and great draught of water of the modern 10-ton racer is greatly against them when wanted for cruising besides the number of hands required to work, say the Buttercup or Neptune, puts them out of the reach of those young yachtsmen who find one paid hand a serious item in their weekly expenditure. It may be said, and with some justice, that those who cannot afford to do the thing properly ought not to go in for yachting. At the same time there is much to be said on the other side, and it was certainly not the aim of the originators of sailing matches, to make yachting in 5 or 10 tonners such a costly amusement as to put the sport beyond the reach of thosewho have to earn their livelihood at the desk or in the workshop. However, it is hardly likely that the new rule will have much effect in cheapening yachts while the price of lead and labour is kept up, so that the long purse will still have the best chance Of carrying the day in yachting rivalry. Some of the modern-built vessels come very near the dimensions and type Of my craft, and as it has served its purpose it is no longer Of any importance. The success which has attended Louise, Buttercup, and others has corroborated in a most marked manner all I alleged with respect to the influence Of the then Yacht Racing Association Rule in favouring the elongated type Of vessel illustrated in the design in question. The measurement question, however, is very far from being settled, and a new experiment is about to be tried by the Y. R. A. Based on the length and area Of canvas.
