Beatrix Wins Special Vineyard Cup Race At New York Club
The New York Yacht Club held its own special Vineyard cup races from East Chop to Nobska and back, despite Oak Bluffs offering a $500 46 footer prize. Beatrix led the schooners segment with vivid spinnaker work, finishing ahead of Mineola and Owenee as Beatrix’s speed and maneuvering boosted her to a close second overall behind Gloriana in related events. The Ventura and Gossoon ran notable handicap times, with Adams brothers praised for sportsmanlike conduct after Ventura’s rigging issue.
