Yachts and yachting : with over one hundred and ten illustrations . 7 5 Watson Harvey .... 188318811876t88^ Marguerite. .. Marjorie Galatea 188418831885T883 Genesta T88i Clara Ulerine .. 18841884t88i are in every respect much heavier than acruising boat of similar tonnage. The costof building and equipping a ninety-ton cutterof the modern type is $35,000, and in thisestimate no allowance whatever is made forcabin fittings, as it merely includes hull,spars, sails, gear, and ballast. The outlayin racing a yacht of this size during thefour months season will amount to quite$10,000. Wages are not a very seriousitem, considering the class of seamen whoseservices may be secured. The usual weeklyscale is master, $12 to $15; mate, $9; andseamen, $6 50. The crew find their ownprovisions, but it is usual for the owner tosupply clothes, which cost for master, $50;mate, $30; and seamen, $18. These clothesare really a livery, and legally belong to.
