Description
"Yarrabah boys will race for a special prize [vee jay class?]" (Cairns Post)
“On the 14th September quite a number of our folk went to Cairns to take part in the Cairns Aquatic Club’s annual Sailing Regatta. The Club very generously provided special events and prize money for the competition of our boys, and when our boats are trimmed with bunting and their white sails set to the breeze, Y hearts swell with pride”.
