Among the principal contenders were Pirate, William S. Grant, Jr., and Chief, Dr. George G. Hayward. Interest lagged after a time, although spasmodic efforts were made to arouse interest. In 1913, however, yacht racing once more aroused interest. In that year, a one-design class of 17 1/2-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 at the Eastern Yacht Club at Marblehead, Massachusetts. Six of these yachts were purchased by residents of Northeast Harbor and vicinity 15 Daffydill, 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 17 1/2-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 16 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 are 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. 17 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 was able to purchase the Sparrow for a Committee boat. It had been used for this purpose for four seasons and found to be particularly well adapted to the work. 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 officers of the Fleet have continued to foster one-design classes, upon which the success of the Fleet, to a considerable degree, has been based. They have felt that one-design classes offer the best basis for con- tinued interest on the part of a growing number of mem- bers. Because of prevailing conditions, it was impossible to continue the Corinthian Yacht Club series of races this season, but it is the intention of both clubs to do SO as soon as circumstances make it possible. Due to the financial conditions in 1932, the racing season was looked to with misgivings, which proved un- founded. Excellent weather prevailed and large num- ber of boats participated. The July Cruise was initiated, and Allen Cove was substituted for Seal Cove as the desti- nation of the first and third races of the Annual Cruise. 18 For the first time since its initiation, the 1933 Annual Cruise temporarily changed its destination-from Blue Hill to Buck Harbor. This season marked the first official Lawrence Dickey Memorial Team Races between A and B Classes. Definite steps were taken toward the standard- ization of the various classes of the Fleet. 19 David Sherrin 1868- "SOUTHWARD BOUND" To W. Barton Eddison, Commodore 1927-35 Presented by The Northeast Harbor Fleet COMMODORE'S REPORT, 1935 The season of 1935 was again marked by good sailing and a general and healthy interest in the sport by the entire membership. July proved disappointing as to weather, which made it necessary to abandon the July Cruise. August furnished ample wind, for the most part, and several exciting incidents. Captain Erwin Spurling deserves the thanks of all hands for his prompt action in coming to the rescue of two boats swamped in a blow. One of the new Fleet gold medals was inscribed and pre- sented to him by the Fleet as a token of appreciation. Aeolus did his best to upset the Annual Cruise by blowing hard from the north on the second night in Allen Cove. Many boats dragged anchor that night during the blow, but again fortune smiled. The holding ground was excellent and as the water shoaled, the greater effective scope held every boat that dragged from going ashore. It was here that some unidentified good Samaritans rowed around and boarded many boats to give them greater scope. It is hoped that this acknowledgement may be read by them. All available words have been used up in past years to thank Commodore and Mrs. Seth M. Milliken for the Kollegewidgwok Cup Race and the entertainment of the Fleet at East Blue Hill. This year a fresh start will be made. We thank them. Acknowledgement is due to the Southwest Harbor Yacht Club and the Seal Harbor Yacht Club for their very enjoyable regattas. To the lighthouse service for again placing a bell in Eastern Way. To the U. S. Coast 21 Guard for accompanying the Fleet on the Cruise and giving valuable service. To Roger Griswold, friend, sailor, and architect, whose good nature and ability were imposed upon to design the new Fleet medal. To the Officers and Committee members who served the Fleet well. And last but not least, the members who showed their appreciation of the work of the Officers by coming out if there was enough wind to carry them from their moorings. And now after eight years your Commodore is "leaving the bridge." He can only ask for his able successor that the Fleet may be as kind to him. If I may now venture into the first person I would express to each member who joined in the "surprise," or who would have joined had they been told, my heartfelt thanks for the token of appreciation of my efforts on be- half of the Fleet. I was quite taken off my feet when a beautiful painting of a full-rigged ship arrived, bearing on a small plaque below a simple and touching legend. It will hang in our Ardsley home, where it can be seen and appreciated many times a day until we again occupy our house in Maine in 1937. I might add that this was a total and complete surprise, as I had been surprised in Maine by a dinner of former officers and committee mem- bers and had been presented with the new Fleet medal as a token of my service. It would be necessary for me to work for many years more to deserve the praise that it has been my good fortune to receive. I wish I could thank every single member personally. Respectfully submitted, W. BARTON EDDISON 22 RACE COMMITTEE REPORT The following table is submitted, comparing the July and August Series of 1934 and 1935. NUMBER OF BOATS RACING BY CLASSES JULY AUGUST CLASS 1934 1935 1934 1935 30 square meters 4 3 6 4 A-boats 24 23 28 28 B-boats 10 7 11 8 MDI 3 0 4 3 Bullseye 7 6 7 7 - - - Total 48 39 56 50 The total of 50 boats racing in August, 1935, compares with 56 in August, 1934, and with 58 in August, 1933. The decrease is caused partly because some boats did not race during the season, partly because others were sold away from the Fleet. It is hoped that this year will bring new boats and new entrants, and that 1936 will see more boats than ever before crossing the starting line. Miss Mary Wheelwright has presented the Fleet, for the Seamanship Race, two silver trophies, made by Georg Jensen, one for boys and one for girls, under 21 years of age. The Race Committee gratefully acknowledges this gift, and hopes that it will bring every young yachtsman and yachtswoman to the starting line of this interesting race. The trophies come into permanent possession after being won twice by the same person. 23 As usual, the strong cooperation of the Yacht Clubs at Southwest and Seal Harbors, contributed greatly to the success and pleasure of the season's racing.

Medals and pennants are awarded to the winner in each class in the August Series, Annual Cruise, July Cruise, and other events at the discretion of the Race Committee. Trophies, which for the most part are offered by friends and members of the Fleet, are awarded as stated below: AUGUST SERIES TROPHIES All August Series trophies, except the Stephen Whitney Dickey Cup, become the property of the owner of the yacht first winning the August Series two years. *The first August Series trophy for the 30 SQUARE METER CLASS was furnished by the Fleet in 1930. This trophy was won permanently by Mr. John Tyssowski in 1931. The Fleet provided a new trophy in 1932, which was again won by Mr. Tyssowski in 1933. The STEPHEN WHITNEY DICKEY CUP was presented in 1923 by Mrs. Charles D. Dickey, in memory of her son, Stephen Whitney Dickey, who was killed in action in France as a member of the 110th U. S. Infantry, 28th Division, American Expeditionary Forces. The name of the winning yacht in the August Series of races for CLASS A is engraved on this trophy and the owner is given a replica. *The original August Series CLASS B Trophy was do- nated in 1923 by Commodore George Davenport Hayward and Vice-Commodore Edward W. Madeira. The trophy * No trophy at present. 41 became the property of Mr. Robert E. L. Johnson in 1926. In 1927 a trophy was given for the prize in CLASS B by Mrs. James Murphy. This trophy was won by Mr. Robert K. McInnes in 1930. The Fleet furnished a round silver plate in 1931. This plate became the permanent property of Dr. Henry D. Stebbins in 1933. The August Series CLASS O Trophy was presented in 1923 by Mrs. M. E. Olmsted. It was won in 1927 by Mrs. C. Bradford Fraley, who presented a new trophy in 1928. Roger Wolcott Drury became the owner of this trophy in 1930 and Mrs. Samuel S. Drury replaced it in 1931. The first MDI and BULLSEYE trophies were donated by Mrs. Herbert Lyman and Mrs. Schofield Andrews, respectively, in 1931. *Miss Lucretia G. Brooks was awarded the MDI trophy in 1935. *The BULLSEYE trophy was won permanently by John Corbin Eddison in 1934. JULY CRUISE TROPHIES *The first July Cruise trophy was a one-year trophy presented by Dr. William Earl Clark for the B CLASS. This trophy was won permanently by Rev. Henry W. Foote in 1932. Mrs. Lewis Neilson presented the first July Cruise A CLASS trophy in 1933. This trophy becomes the property of the person first winning it twice. * No trophy at present. 42 ANNUAL CRUISE TROPHIES With the exception of Classes S and MDI, which are constituted chiefly of yachts of the Bar Harbor Yacht Club, all cruise trophies become the property of the owner of the yacht frst winning the highest score on the cruise for three years. An Annual Cruise trophy for the SCHOONER CLASS was obtained in 1931 from the Fleet treasury. Edward W. Madeira became the owner of this trophy in 1934. Mr. Madeira has reoffered this trophy for competition. *In 1929 a trophy for the Annual Cruise for CLASS S was presented by Commodore W. Barton Eddison. This trophy was to become the property of the owner of the yacht winning the highest number of points on the cruise in 1929. In 1930, 1931, and 1932 the CLASS S Trophy was bought from the Fleet treasury. The 30 SQUARE METER Annual Cruise Trophy was given by the Fleet in 1930. Mr. C. Clark Zantzinger, Jr., presented the trophy for CLASS A in 1928. The first Annual Cruise Trophy for CLASS B was given by Mr. Malcolm Stanley in 1929. It was to become the property of the owner of the yacht winning the highest number of points on the Annual Cruise. The 1929 winner was Mr. Robert K. McInnes. A new CLASS B Cruise Trophy was presented to the Fleet by Mrs. James Varnum in 1930. Two Cruise trophies for CLASS o were bought from the Fleet treasury. The first was for the owner of the yacht * No trophy at present. 43 winning the highest percentage on the cruise in 1928. This was won by Dr. Edward L. Keyes. The second was for the owner of the yacht winning the highest number of points on the cruise in 1929 and was won by Miss Alida Milliken, of Blue Hill. This class has not participated since 1929. The Fleet purchased two Annual Cruise trophies for CLASS MDI for 1929 and 1930. No award has been made. Each year Dr. Seth M. Milliken has awarded trophies to the winners of the race to Blue Hill. These are most highly contested trophies, and of the most treasured of the season. They are symbolic not only of a race won, but of the friendship and good will of Doctor Milliken toward the Northeast Harbor Fleet. TROPHIES FOR SPECIAL RACES The GEORGE DAVENPORT HAYWARD MEMORIAL CUP was presented in 1925 as a memorial to George Davenport Hayward, who was Commodore from 1923 to 1925 and for many years one of the leaders in the building up of the Northeast Harbor Fleet. His untimely death in 1925 ended a career of great usefulness. As a tribute to him, his friends subscribed the funds which purchased this trophy. Each year, on August 17th, Commodore Hay- ward's birthday, the George Davenport Hayward Me- morial Cup race is held, and is open to all yachts in the racing classes of the Fleet. This race is a "chowder" race; that is, handicaps are given at the start, and the first yacht to cross the finish line wins. The name of the winning yacht is engraved on the trophy and the owner is given a replica. 44 HARRIS HYMEMORY OF COORGE DAVENPORT HAYWAIT FOMMODORE 1923-1923 RECENT 13 BY HIS FRIENDS ANNUAL COMPETITION GEORGE DAVENPORT HAYWARD MEMORIAL CUP *A trophy for the ANNUAL SCHOONER RACE was given by the Fleet in 1929 and won by Mr. Henry Rawle.

The race is open to boys and girls under 21 years of age sailing yachts of the A Class in separate divisions. The race involves a problem in sea- manship. The contestants start at anchor with sails furled and covered and are given secret instructions in- volving a problem in seamanship. The solution of the problem, as well as the handling of the yacht, are deter- mining factors. The yacht owner winning this race for two years secures possession of the trophy. The trophy was won in 1928 by Arthur P. Butler, Jr., and E. Farnham Butler. Miss Wheelwright donated a new trophy in 1929 which was won by Mr. Reginald C. Robbins, Jr., in 1930.
