Once Fine Yacht Club Mess With Foundations Settling Eight years ago Whitby Yacht Club was in its hey-day. Today, and for the past three years, it has been entirely surrounded by water and partly submerged, valuable equip- Though the water level has gone down somewhat, it is doubtful when, if ever, the club will ----------again be surrounded by dry land. It was built and operated by a White by group and is not an Incorporat- ed company. . The Times-Gazette made an in- spection "trip there the other eve ening. Standard equipment for the trip was hip rubber boots. A quar- ter mile trip by water was made to the tune of an outboard motor. The party climbed onto the veran- dah' which is covered with several inches of water. They unlocked a door and went in. It is still possible that the build ing and much of its equipments will be salvaged. It has settled bad- ly in the water but the fine stone fireplace 'is still intact though listing to 'starboard'. In the lounge room the spring floods have receded to that only a few inches of water remain on the floor. Naturally the chester- fields, lamps, chairs and furnish- ings are badly damaged by mois- ture. The "Guardian" once proud "flag- ship" of the club, is lying in water, considerably damaged. In a locked cupboard all small repair parts, first aid equipment, odds and ends, some of which rusted beyond use. The kitchen and other rooms were not visited because the water level was above the rubber boots being worn by the party. Electric wiring and fixtures are more or less intact but the whole place is a sorry mess. No one seems to know just what the future of the club is. The directors are fully cognizant of the situation but say they can do nothing until the water recedes. The property is cove ered by insurance. The club has very substantial cash assets in the bank and is hoping that a turn of nature will enable it to put this community asset in operation. at some future date.
