RUSTING OUTRIGGERS OF EIGHT-OAR RACERS
WAIKATO ASPIRATION
“THE outriggers of the eights are JL rusting for lack of use,” said Mr. T. Marshall (Waitemata), complaining, at the Auckland Rowing Association’s meeting last evening, that the best and best eights granted to Auckland by the N.Z.A.R.A. were not fulfilling their purpose. Members agreed that the boats were practically useless. Mr. A. M. Wilson; They should be clinker boats.
Mr. W. Bryden suggested that eight now housed at St. George’s should be sent to the Waikato. There was general agreement on the principle that eight-oared rowing should be encouraged, and it was recommended that in future clubs be allowed to use the boats at 4s per trip.
