SAILING RACES

YACHT CLUBS COMBINE The Roval Akarana and Devonport Yacht Clubs combined in harbour races off Devonport on Saturday, but it was not until late in the afternoon that a breeze came steadily from the south. Once again the small classes were to the fore and keen competition was witnessed Both Frostbite and sailing dinghy classes were post entries, but the light airs prevented several boats getting to the start from up-harbour.
