All attempts so far to get up. a yacht club that would make the study of seamanship, yacht designing, riggmgs, care and handling, its objpcts have failed. The cause for the failure is directly due to the men who wear yachting clothes, but who never sail their own boats, even if theyfiown one. Norwithstanding-the fact that the hun- dreds of clubs that exist in this coun- try, comprisingithousands of members, you cannot find in any club any num- ber of thoroughly competentamateurs.
