This was the second time this event was held and was a huge success. The theme be- hind this race is not to challenge for the America's cup but to help promote the sport of sailing in North Shore. The co-sponsors and organizers of the event were Mr. Bill Megraw Sr. and Mr. Charlie Wise of Terrace Bay. It was difficult to sort out the differ- ent classes of boats in the race, since out of the fleet of six, no two were alike. If anybody was keeping: score at the finish were: Skippers Bill Megraw, followed by Don Beno, Doug Stefur- ak, Dr. Wilkes, Mike Reid and Denis Connel- "Ve. The Barwis Memorial trophy was later pres- ented to Mike Reid for his skill at naviga- tion and seamanship. Following the race a cookout was held at Wardrope: Park in Rossport.
