Rival yacht match ends with near duplicate Thetis and Stranger
The Thetis owned by Harry Bryant of Boston faces the Stranger, an English cutter owned by George H. Warren, in a private duel. The two yachts are nearly equal in size, with Stranger slightly longer by a foot or two. Their rivalry stems from past clashes in the Eastern Yacht Club circuit, including a loss for Thetis to Stranger in June’s regatta, while Thetis had shown strength in the prior summer. The recent race, concluded yesterday, was arranged privately by Bryant and Warren.
