Naval losses and Lipton’s Cup bid midwar chatter
The report notes recent Japanese naval losses with a torpedo boat destroyed on May 12 in Kerr Bay and the cruiser Miyako sunk by a submerged mine in the same bay, two dead and 22 wounded. Also, four Russians crippled a Japanese cruiser in Taliewan Bay on May 10. Lipton plans a fourth America's Cup bid next fall with a 90 footer via the Royal Ulster Yacht Club, likely prompting another Bristol defender build next winter.
