Among the principal contenders were Pirate, William S. Grant, Jr., and Chief, Dr. George G. Hayward. Interest lagged after a time. In 1913, however, yacht racing once more aroused interest. In that year, a one-design class of 171/2-foot knockabouts was organized in Bar Harbor, and several of the yachts were owned in Seal Harbor and in North- east Harbor. Under the auspices of the then newly established Seal Harbor Yacht Club, races were held for the Seal Harbor and Northeast Harbor yachts. The climax of the season was a race between these yachts and the Bar Harbor yachts off Seal Harbor. The race was won by Bird, Charles D. Dickey, Jr. In the spring of 1914, because of the keen interest in the preceding year, yachts were sought which would be suitable for racing at Northeast Harbor. Just at that time there were placed on the market several 17-foot yachts designed by Edwin A. Boardman and built by George Lawley and Son Corporation which belonged to a class which had been organized by the Eastern Yacht Club at Marblehead. Six of these yachts were purchased by residents of Northeast Harbor and vicinity. Daffydill, 19 Henry Parkman; Ino, Francis C. Grant and Edward W. Madeira; Atlanta, Ernest B. Dane, Jr.; Moslem III, William S. Grant, Jr.; Squaw, W. W. Rowse; and Kipper, Dr. Richard H. Harte. These yachts raced throughout the seasons of 1914 and 1915 and proved satisfactory in every way. In 1916 came the disturbance on the Mexican border, and in 1917 and 1918 the World War. Those most inter- ested in yacht racing at Northeast Harbor were in the service of the nation. In 1919, however, racing attracted new interest, and the races were conducted on a more formal scale than before. The Fleet increased in size in this year and in 1920. In 1921 the racing organization was perfected. Pre- viously the Fleet had raced boat for boat in one class. In this year three classes were organized: Class A, the Eastern Yacht Club 17-footers, eleven in number; Class B, the Bar Harbor - Manchester - Islesboro - North Haven 171/2-footers, six in number; and Class C, a composite class of all boats in the neighborhood of from 15 to 18 feet water line. Scores were computed for the first time and the prize pennants first awarded. In 1922 the miscellaneous class, Class C, was discon. tinued, as little interest had been shown in it. An inno- vation was the three-day cruise to Blue Hill Bay in which nine yachts took part. From this humble beginning, the cruise has grown to one of the most attractive features of the season. Further progress of the Fleet was evident in 1923, when the Fleet was formed into a yacht club under the name "The Northeast Harbor Fleet," and the Fleet burgee 20 adopted. Two new classes were added: Class o, the Northeast Harbor 15-footers, thirteen in number; and a new Class C, the Eliot-Manchester boats, three in number. The first cups were presented to the several winners at the end of the season. The following summer arrange- ments were completed for an annual series of races with the Tarratine Club of Dark Harbor, and the first races were held. In 1925 occurred the death of George Davenport Hay- ward, for many years the guiding spirit in yacht racing at Northeast Harbor. In his death the Fleet sustained a severe loss. As a memorial to him his friends generously presented the George Davenport Hayward Memorial Cup which was first sailed for in August, 1925. In that same year, under an agreement with the Seal Harbor Yacht Club, Class MDI was added to the racing classes. Because of the great increase in the size of the Fleet it became necessary to employ a full-time secretary in 1927, and in 1928 Fleet Headquarters were established on Main Street, to be kept open every week-day morning during the racing season by the secretary. All records were maintained there, Race Committee meetings held there, and race results posted. The 30 Square Meter Class was started in 1929, when Commodore Eddison and John Tyssowski imported boats from Sweden. The following season welcomed a new class of members, the junior members, and introduced the Bullseye Class for junior racing. A Fleet landing stage was established at the Clifton dock which enabled the Fleet to reciprocate in some measure for the courtesy extended to its members by other yacht clubs. 21 The growth of the Fleet was very healthy. In 1930 there was a spirit of fine sportsmanship and keen com- petition, which it is the aim of the officers to promote and foster. The Fleet started a series of home and home races in the 30 Square Meter Class with the Corinthian Yacht Club of Marblehead, Massachusetts. Two boats of our Fleet were sent to Marblehead to compete in a series of five races, and were defeated by a score of 30 to 20 points. In 1931 the Fleet purchased the Sparrow for a Committee boat. Two new 30 Square Meter Class boats were added to the Fleet. The Corinthian Yacht Club sent three crews to Northeast Harbor to compete in our boats, which were drawn by lot. The point score of this series was 63 to 35, in favor of The Northeast Harbor Fleet. The July Cruise was established in 1932 and has be- come an annual fixture. The Lawrence Dickey Memorial team races between A and B classes were inaugurated in 1933. At the annual meeting in 1937 a committee was ap- pointed consisting of Mr. Eliot Wadsworth, Chairman; Mr. Spedden, and Mr. Eddison, to consider the question of a new class. The committee recommended the adop- tion of the International Class and in 1938 fourteen of these boats were ordered and built by Bjarne Aas of Fredrikstad, Norway. Mr. Eddison was appointed a committee of one to control the importation. Sparkman and Stephens acted as buyers' agent and the European inspection and acceptance was done by Veritas. The boats were shipped to Northeast Harbor on the Norwesgian motor ship Toronto, unloading off Bear Island in April, 1938. 22 During the past eight years Fleet affairs and activities have shown noteworthy progress. In 1941 the Fleet es- tablished Headquarters for the first time directly on the shore where for two years activities were conducted from an office located off Sea Street. The annual meeting of 1941 approved a plan to establish a Junior Sailing Instruction Class. Put into effect in the summer of 1942 this class has flourished beyond expectation to become one of the major interests of the Fleet. An opportunity arose in 1943 to acquire the use of the Rock End Dock facilities for Fleet Headquarters and a special committee headed by Commodore Haskell raised the necessary funds to purchase the dock, and adjoining shore front property, thereby permitting the Fleet to enjoy its first permanent base of operations. This project has been developed each year culminating in the erection during 1946 of a new Fleet Headquarters building, made possible by the devoted interest in Fleet affairs of Mr. Harry G. Haskell and Mr. Harry G. Haskell, Jr. In 1946 a new class of yachts was added to the regularly established racing classes of the Fleet largely through the efforts of Mr. James G. Ducey. Twenty-two Luders 16's took part in the races for the first time in Northeast Harbor waters. The healthy position of the Fleet before World War II provided a sound basis of operation, so that the zealous devotion of those members able to be at Northeast for periods of time during the war, successfully carried the Fleet through these critical years. Unwilling to allow his keen interest in the Fleet to wane, Mr. Harry G. Haskell has gone forward with the 23 Fleet to complete his building project. Through his con- tinued support during 1947 and 1948, funds have been made available for landscaping the Fleet property at Rock End Dock. Through the generosity of Mr. Haskell and many of the members of the Fleet, it was possible over a two year period, to replace entirely the pier construction of the Rock End Dock. Friends of Mr. Vance C. McCormick have erected a flag pole on the Fleet property in memory of Mr. McCormick's untiring devotion to the Fleet. During the summer of 1948 the Fleet was incorporated thereby permitting it to acquire the physical property which had been held by three trustees for several years. 24 COMMODORE'S REPORT Because of the absence of the Commodore on duty with the United States Navy, this annual report is submitted by the Vice-Commodore. Our Commodore, Harry R. Neilson, Jr., reported for active duty with the Navy in May. Hence he was unable to be present in Northeast Harbor during the summer. However, he had devoted a great deal of his time and efforts to the affairs of the Fleet before entering the serv- ice, had settled the plans for the year and set up the or- ganization to carry them out. For all of this we are most grateful to him. It is a source of much regret to all of us that he could not be with us during the summer to en- joy the sport which he had taken so much trouble to arrange. The Fleet also sustained the loss of its Secretary, Ed- mund L. Coombs, as a result of the world situation. The resumption of a year-round schedule at Bowdoin College where he is teaching made it impossible for him to con- tinue as Secretary of the Fleet. He had done an out- standing job as Secretary, and had earned the confidence and respect of our members. It is appropriate to record here our gratitude and appreciation for his services and our deep regret that circumstances prevented him from carrying on. Fortunately, James G. Ducey was prevailed upon to fill the vacancy in the office of Secretary. He gave his time and talents in full measure to the administration of the affairs of the Fleet. Thanks to his efforts and the able assistance of Philip M. Caughey, the season's racing pro- 25 gram and other Fleet activities were carried through smoothly and we can look back upon a very successful season. The number of boats racing and the number of races in which they sailed were about the same in 1951 as in 1950. The season began rather slowly in July, and a larger number of boats in the earlier part of the season would have provided better competition. However, there was a marked increase in activities during August and participation in the racing compared favorably with past years. The July cruise to Sorrento, with the Fleet participating in the Bar Harbor Regatta the second day, was most en- joyable for those who took part, but perhaps because it came early in the season, the number of boats on the cruise was somewhat disappointing. The Fleet is much indebted to those who provided such pleasant entertain- ment and hospitality, both at Sorrento and Bar Harbor. Unfortunately, heavy weather forced cancellation of the last day's race, but all boats were brought back to North- east Harbor in good shape without serious mishap. The August cruise got underway on August 23rd, after a one day postponement due to fog. The first day was a beautiful sail under ideal conditions to Southeast Harbor on Deer Isle. The run to Southeast Harbor was a new undertaking for the Fleet. It is a lovely secluded place and an excellent anchorage. The second day the Fleet sailed to Seal Cove in Blue Hill Bay in light and flukey weather. Upon arrival, we were entertained at a delightful Supper and Barn Dance by Mr. and Mrs. J. Andrews Harris, III. This was a great contribution to the success 26 of the cruise, and I want to record on behalf of the Fleet our sincere thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Harris for their gen- erous hospitality. The sailing class had a larger number enrolled than ever before, reaching a high of 79 during the week of July 30. We may have reached the point where it will be necessary to place a limit on the number to be accepted. If we accept more children than our facilities permit us to take care of properly, it becomes difficult, if not im- possible, to keep all of them occupied with instructive and interesting activities. Taylor Cole did a good job of or- ganizing and instructing, and showed great patience and understanding in meeting the problems which arose as a result of our enrollment being larger at times than the capacity of our facilities. We are greatly indebted to the owners of Bullseyes who so generously permitted their boats to be used by the sailing class, and also to the owners of dinghies which were used by the class. Our Commodore made an appeal to the members during the year for contributions to raise the money required to replace the engine in our gray workboat. I am glad to be able to report that this request met with a generous response and that contributions slightly in excess of the required amount were received. This evidence of the inter- est and support of our members is encouraging. The gray boat is believed to be essential for the proper supervision of the sailing class, and it has been most useful in putting out and taking up moorings and for other purposes. As a result of donations of their stock made by many of the original subscribers, the Fleet has become the owner of all but a few shares of the Clifton Dock Corporation. 27 The Clifton Dock is a very necessary facility in Northeast Harbor and important to the operation of the Fleet. It is desirable that the management of its affairs be integrated with the Fleet operations. At the same time, we must endeavor to make the Clifton Dock self-supporting so that the expenses of its maintenance and operation do not become too great a burden on the finances of the Fleet. A pleasant innovation during the past season was a series of Teas at the Fleet Headquarters after the Saturday races sponsored by different members of the Fleet. Tea and cookies were served and the gatherings were much enjoyed, both for the refreshments and for the opportunities to hold post mortems on the races. Miss Jane Smith brought distinction to the Fleet during the year by her victory in the Adams Cup, emblematic of the Women's East Coast Sailing Championship. We all congratulate her on this outstanding accomplishment. To the Race Committee under the Chairmanship of Frederick Fraley, Jr., and to Mrs. C. Bradford Fraley, Chairman of the House Committee, I want to express our appreciation for their valuable contributions to the season's activities. Respectfully submitted, STUART S. JANNEY, JR. Vice-Commodore 28 REPORT OF THE SAILING MASTER 1951 With much anticipation and pleasure I accepted the position of Sailing Master at The Northeast Harbor Fleet this year. My hope was that I could carry on the work of the past two seasons with, at least, most of the efficiency and ability of my brother, Philip Cole, Jr. It was very gratifying to me to see the enthusiastic re- ception of the members of the class. Contrary to expecta- tions we found that the attendance was greater than last year, some weeks reaching more than 70 members. As before we have used the three watch system, but with some modifications made necessary by the shortage of assistant instructors. The youngest members were placed in the Primary Watch where they learned the necessary skills of rowing and tieing knots. The Intermediate Watch were given the opportunity to sail in the Bullseyes with the older and more experienced members of the class. In order to stimulate the interest of the 12-16 year olds in the Senior Watch, we ran two series of morning races in the Bullseyes. This was very well attended and proved to be successful in every way. In general, the sailing class was well received and af- forded an enjoyable and valuable experience for all its members. However, it was not without its rough spots. At least two times during the season, objections were raised by parents and Fleet Members that the safety precautions were not closely adhered to. I fully appreciate their anxiety and for that reason I feel that a word of explana- tion is fitting at this time. 29 All of us who know sailing are aware of its risks. Even under the best conditions the unexpected can happen, and unforseen dangers may arise. In one of the instances to which I am referring, a Bullseye was swamped, its four crew members were well soaked and to some extent fright- ened. Our launches were on hand to make an immediate rescue, and the crew were protected by life jackets. They were in the water no longer than five minutes. In another instance a group was lost in the fog for a short time. Again we were ready for the emergency and after a brief search they were found in good spirits and much the wiser for the experience. I believe that in order to teach sailing and seamanship it is necessary that some small risks be taken, lest the students get the impression that there is no danger. It has been the policy of this sailing class to keep danger at a minimum and make safety foremost by maintaining constant, vigilant supervision. We cannot guarantee that accidents will not occur, but we want you to be able to feel that in any event the children will be as safe as pos- sible. With the sailing class equipped as it is with launches and competent persons to run them, we are in a fine po- sition to remove any real danger, even from being swamped in a Bullseye or lost in a fog. In my opinion the responsibility of looking out for the safety and instruction of approximately 70 children be- tween the ages of 5 and 16 is too great for one person. At the beginning of this season I had only one hired as- sistant working with the sailing class and his first duty was on the dock and around the Fleet House. Neither John Hammond nor myself was fully acquainted with the 30 waters hereabout and we found it difficult keeping every- one occupied. Had it not been for the voluntary assistance of my own sister, Frances, I really don't know what we would have done. Towards the end of July, Frank and Joan Newlin arrived and took over the Primary Watch. Their fresh and novel ideas were a great help in keeping the youngest interested. In early August the Fleet hired Bill Van Pelt to help out with the older group. I found that Bill was the type of person I had been needing all along. Had he been with me from the beginning things would have been much smoother. However, even with such help as Bill and John and Frances, I believe the class was too large. If it were limited to 50 members between the ages of 8 and 16 I think there would be better instruc- tion, more learning, and an even greater margin of safety. It is with deepest thanks that I acknowledge the gener- osity of the Bullseye owners for allowing us to use their boats for the class. Without them there could be no class at all. There is no doubt that the wear and tear on their boats is great. I cannot overemphasize the debt of grati- tude that we owe them. In conclusion let me thank all my helpers, young and younger, who have done their best to make it possible for me to conduct a successful class. I have enjoyed the year and hope that next year will be an even better year for the sailing class at The Northeast Harbor Fleet. Respectfully submitted, TAYLOR W. COLE Sailing Master 31 REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE RACE COMMITTEE 1951 In the July Series, after a slow start, 226 boats com- peted in the eight races held. In 1950 in the same number of races we had 228. No races had to be cancelled on account of weather though two were not finished within the time limits. The July Cruise, which again went to Sorrento for the first night and included the Bar Harbor Regatta on the second day, spent the second night in Stave Island Harbor. A strong southwest wind and heavy chop in Frenchman's Bay forced the abandonment of the race back to Northeast on the last day for all except the Cruising Class. The warm hospitality shown by our hosts at Sorrento and Bar Harbor was the largest factor in the success of the Cruise and it is to be hoped that more members can be here in future years to participate in and enjoy this outstanding feature of our early racing season. There were 19 boats on this Cruise; the same number as in 1950. Although two races of the August Series were lost, one for bad weather and the other due to postponement of the Cruise, it was on the whole as well supported as that of the previous year. The eight races were sailed in the usual varied breezes, but on three occasions at least part of the Fleet went around Baker's Island. 358 boats com- peted at one time or other. The August Cruise, as most of you know, went to South East Harbor on Deer Island the first night and Seal Cove for the second, where Mr. J. Andrews Harris, III pro- vided a delightful supper and dance for all hands. There 32 were 49 yachts racing as well as a sizable number of es- corts. This is about the same number as in past years. However, the Cruising Class had a substantial gain from 11 to 17. We hope that more and more yachtsmen from neighboring clubs will hear of this feature of our Fleet and will join us in future years, especially members of the clubs which have shown us such generous hospitality in the past. In addition to the regular series and cruises, the Inde- pendence Day, Southwest Harbor, Bar Harbor, Seal Har- bor, and Labor Day Regattas were held and stimulated a great deal of interest. Many thanks are due our neighbors for providing these annual contests. To summarize: The season of 1951 has been a normal one though behind the post-war boom years of 1946-1947. With the issue of new racing charts and instructions, sev- eral new courses have been added, which, though not fre- quently used to date, have been generally approved as pro- viding more alternatives for varying conditions of wind, sea, and visibility. The level of competition has improved noticeably throughout the season, particularly in the Bulls- eye Class. Much of this can be attributed to the sailing class and the morning series of races. As these Junior Sailors of today will be the Seniors of tomorrow we need have no fears as to the future of our Fleet. All of us owe a great debt to Jim Ducey, Phil Caughey, Taylor Cole, Charlie Hulbert, and many others whose tireless efforts on our behelf has made the season a success.
