YACHTING CONTROL

DELEGATES MEET SANDERS CUP MOULDS (By Felecraph—Press Association.) HALF MOON BAT, This Day. ' A nleeting of the New Zealand Yacht, ing Council was held yesterday when the following delegates were present: Messrs. G. Tanner and'E. Harlen (Wellington), P. Biggs and T. Bragg (South-, land), G. Curtis and W. Beanland (Canterbury), and W. Martin and T. Anderson (Otago). Mr. Curtis was reelected chairman for the ensuing year. The annual roport reviewed the 1934 contest and stated that all associations had decided that each should pay Auckland a. proportion of the cost of preparing an amended Kona-Jellicoe plan and specification, although the plan was not accepted. The balance-sheet showed a credit of £8. A remit from the Canterbury Association that the title of the council should be changed to the New Zealand Sailing- and Power Boat Council was lost. A • letter received from the Auckland Association offered no immediate solution of the present deadlock between it and the council. . , The offer of Mr. E. Moller (Dunedin) to donate miniature cups for the winning crew' in the Z class contest was accepted with thanks. The levy, for next year was fixed at two guineas. At a meeting of the Sanders Cup conference, held later, the oflicial measurers reported that the steel mould had been put on all boats and Tecommended that four boats should be passed for. the present contest. It is interesting to note that the mouldy was also placed over the Btewart Island boat, Eona, from whose plans the mould was originally taken, and it was found that there was a good deal of discrepancy in the two forward stations.
