MOTOR BOATING IS
next ON PROGRAM
Big Event of Season viii Be
Annual Regatta of San
Francisco Club

With the exception OF the Corinthian
yacht club, which sails for Paradise
cove today, the various yacht clubs
about the bay have open dates today.
The season is rapidly nearing closing
time and next month will find nearly
all the clubs holding power boat re-
gattas. Power boating is on the in
crease and many new launches are be-
ing turned out.
The big event of the local motor boat
world is the annual regatta of the San
Francisco yacht club. which will be
held October at Sausalito. The event
OF the day will be the second annual
race for the San Francisco perpetual
challenge cup, which was first offered
last year by Frederick A. Robbins. 1t
is the handsomest yachting trophy to
be contested for on the bay, and this
years contest is expected to draw a
large list of entries.
The Palachan of the Sacramento boat
club, which was the winner last year.
will not be eligible this year, as the
boat is not classified as a cruiser. The
San Francisco club will probably name
the new 35 footer belonging to Corey,
the Folly.
The handsome cruiser Bonnie Dhuun
has just returned from a weeks trip to
Sacramento. Reports from the capital
city show that motor boating is all the
rage on the river and that there are a
large number of new boats being built.
