Colborne St. East Oakville MORE ABOUT Week-end Sailing (Continued from page 6) Pacific Coast Knockabouts which need a crew of two. Oakville had entered their ten Nova Scotia- built Snipes. So a total of six: teen boats were to be divided be- tween the two . clubs with each manning eight. Bach club sailed one Buffalo Knockabout, two P. ©. Knockabouts and five Snipe for a total score possibly of 675 points. Sunday the sun was unbear- ably hot, the winds light, "the There was a tors on hand lake gently choppy good crowd of spect all day to watch some skillful and exciting racing. In all there were five races, two in the morn- ing and three in the afternoon. When the first race of the day began, some of the comments of the visiting sailors when they, evidently accustomed to a -much bigger boat, started forth in our Snipes convulsed the watchers on shore. One brawny sailor wail- ed; "Where are the winches?" Another said sadly; "What, no motor?" Sunday was truly a day in which skillful sailing came to the fore because the wind w light. Out of the five races Oakville won four firsts. When the day's scor- es were added, Oakville had 335 and Port Credit 3391 points. So again this year, Port Credit re- tains the B.A. Trophy by 41% points, After a gruelling but enjoyable day in the sun, the local sailors stiff, and burned to a crisp. As one local wit remark- ed; "Just put salt and pepper on me and T am ready to be eaten." Monday it had been planned that the Squadron would race out to Aub Baillie's lakeshore home, spend the day in pleasure racing and then race home in the eve- ning. This is somewhat of an an- nual event and one that is look- ed forward to by the Squadron members, for the Baillie hospit- ality is famous. But this Sunday evening by mutual consent the sun-reddened Oakville Squadron decided that one more day of racing they could mot: take until their skins had cooled, their stif- fened legs and backs had become more limber. But it was a wonderful end of sailing. The next big ° facing events coming up in which some of the Oakville Yacht Squadron plan to enter are the CNE races on Sept. sth, and on Sept. 15th the Queen City' Yacht Club have invited us down there for a day's racing. It js planned - to have our boats towed down to Toronto for these two events. week- o ECE 0 20 FOC RITE OC SC CE CEA SE FICE RCE 320 Ee Me ce ce ace sacs ace anced g: "Phone us for . . .
