Owing to postponements caused by the boisterous weather conditions which prevailed early in the season three races have still to 'be sailed off in the 18ft-and-under '■'class, but the present positions of the boats indicate close j finishes in the championship and aggregate competitions. The club's honorary secretary, Mr. G. Roller, leaves on transfer . .to Christ- i church next week. He ; will take with! him the good wishes of yachtsmen and the club's appreciation of his services.
