Climactic Sail Week Ends With Dead Heat Finish
Sheridan Shores crowns Harry Nye and Gale III as stars of the seven race series with Otter brothers close behind in second place by four points. Saturday windward leeward race ends with Nye leading Pirie and Bloom by seconds as spectators watch from powerboats and the Coast Guard cutter Colfax. Sunday regatta sees Pirie Otters win nine mile star race and the six arrows shine in Chicago with Bill Magie first aboard Merenie.
