RACING TO CHEUNG
CHAU
In Westerlies Or Variables
(BY "SHELL · BACK”).
The Royal moug tiợng Yacht Club held their second pool race for Cruisers kist Sunday, over a 25 inlie course from the Yacht Club round Cheùng Chau to Pụrt and back. Conditions were light with variable wands changing from East to South West and finally back to South East, and the result was a win for Capt. P. F. Foley's Facht "Torn," sailed by Major McIntyre and Mr. Portman, who thoroughly deserved their victory.
Sixteen yachts crossed the line at 10.00 a.m. or so soon a.ter. as their helmsman could get them over, with a light Easterly breeze and spinnakers set to Port or Starboard according to incuination and reset periodically on the opposite side according to Inspiration or energy, or not reset owing to lack of it. In fact it was a glorious morning with a gentle balmy breeze, when serious earnest yacht racing seems to be verging on bad form and when the eleven o'clock beer gets unaccountably promoted to ten-thirty.
