Deadline close

for ‘fun’ sailing race

Sailboat skippers have just
two days left to enter what is
rapidly becoming one of the
Major events in the Lower
Mainland sailing calendar.

To date, more than 40
boats have registered to
compete in the third annual
North Shore News Sailing
Race which takes place
Sunday, June 1.

The course this year has
been changed to provide a
better view of the event from
all parts of English Bay.
Starting at 10 a.m. at
Dundarave Pier in West
Vancouver, entrants. will
head southwest, round the
Point Grey Bell Buoy, return
tothe centre channel marker
south of Dundarave, then

across the inlet to the finish
line about half a mile off
Kitsilano beach.

From there all boats
proceed to anchor at the
Granville Island moorage for
the awards ceremonies and
post-race celebrations at the
North Shore Sailing School
in Boaters’ Village.

Although special awards
go. as usual, to the fastest
entrants, the race is con-
ceived primarily as a “fun”
event —- with a whole raft of
other prizes for such
achievements as Best
Dressed Crew, Cleanest
Bottom, Most Luxunous
Head and Last To Finish,
among saumerous other
categories.

“We like to think of it as a
race where everyone wins
something,” says News
publisher Peter Speck,
himself an avid sailor and
twice winner of the Last To
Finish award, who orgamized
the event in 1978 in
collaboration with co-
sponsor Bnao Morse of the
North Shore Sailing School.

Eatry forms, accompanied
by the $15 entrance fee,
must be received by the
North Shore Sailing School,
1601 Granville Street,
Vancouver, not late than 5
p.m. this Friday, May 23.

A pre-race’ skippers’
meeting will be held at the
school at 7:30 p.m. the
following Friday (May 30) to
review rules and procedure.
