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: 14 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 15 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 Bull's-Eye 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. 16 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. In 1931 the Fleet was able to purchase for a Committee boat the Sparrow, which, due to the generosity of Com- modore Eddison, had been used for this purpose for four years. The Sparrow was found from experience to be particularly well adapted to the work. 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 continued interest on the part of a growing number of members. Due to the financial conditions of 1932, the racing season was looked to with misgivings, which proved un- founded. Excellent weather prevailed and a large number of boats participated. The July Cruise was initiated and Allen Cove was substituted for Seal Cove as the des- tination of the first and third race of the Annual Cruise. 17 "Twice AROUND THE INSIDE COURSE" COMMODORE'S REPORT, 1932 For the past five years your Commodore has been able to report progress in the affairs of the Fleet and has been able to back these reports with indisputable figures. This year he reports a most successful season and further progress in the affairs of the Fleet, but the figures require interpretation. The results for 1932 exceeded the fondest hopes of the Fleet officers. The total number of boats racing, as well as the maximum number in any one race, compared most favorably with the best previous figures. The Bull's- Eye Class was the only one to record actual growth. The season, however, was marked by a greater interest in sailing, especially on the part of the juniors, and by a keener interest in good racing. If definitive figures could be obtained, it is the opinion of your officers that an increase would be recorded in both good sportsmanship and the combined sailing ability of the Fleet. The wishes of the members, as expressed at the 1931 annual meeting, were carried out as far as possible. The two-day July cruise was instituted and more races were scheduled in both the July and August series. The two- day July cruise was made to Naskeag Harbor via Black Island. This harbor proved to be an excellent objective and those who joined the cruise felt the event had already become a permanent fixture in the Fleet calendar. The Eleventh Annual Cruise was marked by several departures from former practice, which seemed to meet with general approval. The destination for the first and 19 second nights was changed from Seal Cove to Allen Cove, or from the easterly side of Blue Hill Bay to the westerly side. Alternate courses were provided to give the best sail the weather would permit. The elements were kind and thanks for this are here recorded. The officers of the Fleet acknowledge with thanks the courtesy of the Center Harbor Yacht Club, of Haven, for hospitality of its members during the two nights in Allen Cove. The second day's run was, as usual, to East Blue Hill, where Commodore and Mrs. Seth M. Milliken entertained the Fleet for luncheon at the Kolledgwidwok Yacht Club. Their hospitality beggars description and can only be matched by Commodore Milliken's generosity in pre- senting silver and bronze models of Enterprise for first and second places in each class for the race from Allen Cove to East Blue Hill. In closing, the Commodore wishes to thank all the officers and members of committees whose whole-hearted cooperation turned a doubtful future into a successful past. The Treasurer who "saw red" and contrived to wipe it out, deserves special mention, as does also the Secretary of the Race Committee, who handled his work with consummate tact and skill. The Southwest Harbor Village Improvement Association for their most successful regatta. And last, but not least, the members without whose enthusiastic and whole-hearted support the Fleet could not have carried on. Respectfully submitted, W. BARTON EDDISON. 20 RACE COMMITTEE REPORT The racing season opened on July 12th, a week earlier than usual, and thirty-one boats appeared for the first race, which was sailed in a ten-knot N. W. breeze. This race typified most of the races of the 1932 season, a season which exceeded expectation from all standpoints. From the first, close competition existed in the skilfully raced and graceful 30-Square Meter Class. Classes A and B formed the nucleus of the season's keenest com- petition, with a number of the younger members con- sistently winning by demonstrations of decided skill and knowledge of racing tactics. Class MDI showed an increase of one boat over the previous year. Flag O was dropped from our starting-signal list, and a well-organized Bull's-Eye Class victoriously assumed the place of the O Class. Following is a brief résumé of the special races: On the Fleet's first July Cruise a large number of racing and accompanying yachts dropped anchor in Naskeag Harbor at the end of the first day. The destination of this new two-day event will be chosen each year at a Race Committee meeting. The Southwest Harbor Village Improvement Associ- ation Race was sailed in a light breeze by three classes. The 30-Square Meter Class circumnavigated Great Duck and Baker Islands; Classes A and B, sailing as one class, circumnavigated Little Gott's Island, and the Bull's- Eye Class rounded Mark B. This all-day race, with its variety of courses, is looked forward to with high enthu- siasm each year. 21 The George Davenport Hayward Memorial Cup Race was won for the first time by an MDI with a Bull's-Eye fighting it to the last. All classes, except the 30-Square Meter, which accepted too generous a handicap, were represented in the first five places. Because of diminishing wind and thick fog at the first attempt, the Seamanship Race was resailed. This race and the Seaman's Race, although entered by only a few, afforded probably the best fun of the season. Thanks to wonderful racing weather and the kind hospitality of Commodore and Mrs. Seth M. Milliken, the Annual Cruise was a decided success, and the sub- stitution of Allen Cove for Seal Cove as the destination of the first and third races met with general approval. So, looking back upon such a season of good fun and sporting enthusiasm, the Race Committee wishes to express to members of the Fleet appreciation of their whole-hearted backing and cooperation. Respectfully submitted, THE RACE COMMITTEE, ARNOLD W. LUNT, Secretary. 22 Ar EAST BLUE HILL ON THE ANNUAL CRUISE JULY SERIES 1932 30-SQUARE METER CLASS PLACE NAME SKIPPER POINTS 1 Aquila W.

The recent growth of the Fleet has made it possible to increase the number of these SO that there is now one trophy covering each class for the August Series, the Annual Cruise, and all special races. AUGUST SERIES TROPHIES At the present time, all August Series trophies, except the Stephen Whitney Dickey Cup, become the property of the owner of the yacht first winning the August Series for two years. It will be noticed, however, that in the past there have been no such uniform qualifications. 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 furnished a new trophy in 1932. 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. A new replica was presented by Mrs. William P. Jenks in 1932. The original August Series CLASS B Trophy was donated in 1923 by Commodore George Davenport Hayward and Vice-Commodore Edward W. Madeira. The trophy 38 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. 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 BULL's-EYE trophies were donated by Mrs. Herbert Lyman and Mrs. Schofield Andrews, respectively, in 1931. JULY CRUISE TROPHIES The First July Cruise trophy for CLASS B was presented by Dr. William Earl Clark in 1932, and won by Rev. Henry W. Foote. 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, at present, become the property of the owner of the yacht first 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. 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 39 yacht winning the highest number or 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 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 did not participate in 1930, 1931, or 1932. The Fleet purchased two Annual Cruise trophies for CLASS MDI for 1929 and 1930. No award was made in 1931. Each year Dr. Seth M. Milliken has awarded trophies to the winners of the race from Seal Cove 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 Dr. Milli- ken toward the Northeast Harbor Fleet. 40 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. A trophy for the ANNUAL SCHOONER RACE was given by the Fleet in 1929 and 1930. Mrs. Percy H. Clark presented a trophy in 1931. The SOUTHWEST HARBOR VILLAGE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION CUP is awarded pursuant to the following: "To perpetuate the seagoing spirit of old Southwest, its enterprise, patience, hardihood, and helpfulness in times of stress, the Village Improvement Association offers a cup to be competed for by boats of Classes A and B in the Northeast Harbor Fleet, racing in one class boat for boat." Mr. A. Atwater Kent, Jr., donated a trophy for the 30-SQUARE METER CLASS in the Southwest Harbor Village Improvement Association Race in 1931. 41 The SEAMANSHIP CUP was presented in 1926 by Miss Mary C. Wheelwright. This trophy is awarded each year to the winner of the SEAMANSHIP RACE, which is open to boys and girls under 21 years of age sailing yachts of CLASS A. The race involves a problem in seamanship. The contestants start at anchor with sails furled and COV- ered and are given secret instructions which involve a problem in seamanship. The solution of the problem, as well as the handling of the yacht, are determining factors. The yacht owner winning this race for two years was to secure 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. Miss Wheelwright presented a third trophy in 1931. Frederick Fraley, Jr., won this cup, and Miss Wheelwright presented a fourth in 1932. In 1927 the SEAMAN'S RACE was instituted among the yachtsmen of Southwest Harbor and in 1928 this race was made an annual Fleet event, a trophy being presented by Mr. John Tyssowski and Mr. Malcolm N. Stanley. In this race CLASS B yachts are used. Before the race skippers draw lots for boats, and each must sail single- handed in the boat drawn. The name of the winner is engraved on the trophy. This is the one race that is never postponed. PENNANTS Pennants will be awarded to the winners in each race and to the winners in each series. For the July and August Series and the racing series on the annual cruise, 42 there will be awarded in each class the following: 3-6 entries, 1 pennant; 6-12 entries, 2 pennants; 12-18 entries, 3 pennants; 18-24 entries, 4 pennants; over 24 entries, 5 pennants. The following is a description of the pennants: For winner of each race, a blue pennant bearing a white figure one; for the July and August Series and the Annual Cruise: 1st place, blue background, white compass, red arrow; 2nd place, red background, white compass, blue arrow; 3rd place, white background, blue compass, red arrow; 4th place, yellow background, blue compass, red arrow; 5th place, green background, white compass, red arrow. 43 THE NORTHEAST HARBOR LEET THE STEPHEN WHITNEY DICKEY MEMORIAL CUP PRE ENTED 1923 IN MEMORY OF STEPHEN WHITNEY DICKEY 1897-1918 SECOMO LICUTENANT 28: DIVISION A.F.F THE STEPHEN WHITNEY DICKEY MEMORIAL CUP TROPHY WINNERS AUGUST SERIES 30-SQUARE METER CLASS YEAR NAME SKIPPER 1930 Valee John Tyssowski 1931 Valee John Tyssowski 1932 Valee John Tyssowski THE STEPHEN WHITNEY DICKEY CUP FOR CLASS A 1923 Daffydill Henry Parkman 1924 Ino Edward W, Madeira 1925 Atlanta Ernest B.
