Ihe Messrs! Nkcol. her owners, who accompany ithe yach)t, complain iofthe bad management of the .Nelson Regatta Committee. The latter asked them-to bring tbelr vessel there to compete in the race, and laid the Bourse sothat there was not sufficient water for the vessel to sail in. The result was that she grounded, and was nearly- lost/ owing to the-sea running and the manner in . which she. was .bumping. This mishap caused-her to lose the.race, and when they protested against being thrfs thrown outofit the decision of the committee was that it should be ran again.
