P Class to Howell
Mark Howell, the Canterbury Tanner Cup representative, won the Epiglass South Island P Class yachting championships held at Nelson last week-end. Howell proved consistent throughout in heading the 33strong fleet which drew yachtsmen from as far away as Queenstown. * The first race of the series went to local yachtsmen who handled the eight to 15-knot conditions at Tahunanui Beach better than the rest of the fleet but from then oh Howell took control. He won the next three races for a convincing win, a
restarted last race giving him three wins out of four starts. Abbreviations used in the following results are.— Canterbury Yacht and Motor Boat Club (C.Y.MB.C.), Nelson Yacht Club (N.Y.C.), Queen Charlotte Yacht Club (Q.C.Y.C.), Timaru -Yacht and Power Boat Club (T.Y.P.8.C.).
