Victoria's Yacht Win

Victoria won the yachting easily. But there were some unsatisfactory features about the whole series. Some comment has been raised as to whether the rules of the Yachting Constitution should be changed.

At present the competition takes place over a series of four races in Cherub class boats.

This year at Port Nicholson many of the boats failed to start or failed to finish in many of the races. Otago was the only crew to finish every race.

Results: Race 1—Canterbury 1, Victoria 2, Auckland 3. Race 2—Victoria 1, Otago 2, Canterbury 3. Race 3—Otago 1, Massey 2. Race 4—Victoria 1, Otago 2.
