MANY BOATS HAULED UP
SPACE HEAVILY TAXED There is very little doing at most of the hauling-out sites at present. The accommodation nearly everywhere is heavily taxed, and few boats have not been put on the hard. Congestion is acute at Bailey and Lowe’s, where the squadron’s big keelers are wintered, and St. Mary's Beach is hardly visible for boats. Hitherto the week-ends have been too wet and miserable for a start to be made on overhaul and relit. Last week-end some boatmen began burning off and dismantling in preparation for next season, which, by the way, is already looming up, not much more than three months away.
